THA-THANG:

We played “Encantados”. We divided in two teams, the objective was to capture all the other team members in less than 5 mins. If you get caught, then you will do 20 merkins and 20 squats. If all your team is captured, the whole team will do 20 burpees as punishment :). We had a lot of fun and it was really hard to chase some of the fellas, they were expert dodgers :).

We mosey to the soccer fields, but on our way we performed some fun exercises:

  • 20 box jumps.
  • 20 Derkins.
  • 20 Toe Merkins.
  • 20 Dips.
  • 20 BBS.
  • 20 Heels to Heaven.

At the soccer field we played some penalty kicks. We regrouped again in teams, if the team scored, they would decide what exercise the other team would do and it would be repeated 20 times. We ended up doing the exercises all together since the our team was not that expert with the ball :).

Mosey to the Flag and 20 more squats.

Me and 11 of the best men I know.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

We say this in F3 – “leave no man behind – but leave no man where you found him“.  If you are striving to be a HIM, you will not be the same man next year that you were this year – because you are always growing, always be getting better.  This morning, we thought about which of the three Fs you will see growth in by the end of summer.

From Anders Ericsson’s book, “Peak: Secrets from the New Science of Expertise”. To be excellent at something, you need…

  • …feedback. You need to be another man to know your plan, to see your work, and to provide you with feedback on your performance.

For the area that you are going to see growth in, what does “feedback” look like?

  • …to get outside of your comfort zone. Anders tells us this may be the most essential aspect of purposeful practice. He puts it directly: “If you never push yourself beyond your comfort zone, you will never improve.”

For the area that you are going to see growth in, what does “outside your comfort zone” look like?

A few men shared their goals and how they are going to pursue feedback.

MOLESKIN:

Team One with the dominating win!  Well done!
