Moved to track. As many laps as possible. Each lap had six stations, three at each end. So, sprint then A mosey B mosey C. Then the other half. Sprint A mosey B mosey C.
A: Merkins
B: Abs (LBCs or BBs)
C: Monkey Humpers or Squat Jumps
Sprint the straight sections and then mosey in between the stations in the corners. Rep counts where 20 first lap, 15 second lap, and 10 for every other lap. Most of the PAX completed four laps. Some more. Some fewer.

Back to the flag.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

F3 is open to all men. I believe we, as individuals, should be too. Work to embrace the positive traits of all. Especially, those who don’t check all the same boxes as you do.

MOLESKIN:
For Baby Boomer and all those traveling this week.  And for all the sick and suffering.  For the unsaid prayers in our hearts.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Competition & Challenges

THE SCENE: Less hot than it has been, but still hot enough to cause one to drip massive amounts of sweat off their nose
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
25 Side Straddle Hops because Pool Boy was not yet in attendance
5 Cherry pickers
10 Baby Arm Circles forward & backward
Arm Stretches
Quad Stretching

THA-THANG:
Mosey to the Merkin Mile
1st round
Pair up with a partner, and at each line one partner does 5 merkins, at the next line the 2nd partner does 5 V ups, and rotate in this fashion until you reach the next speed bump.  At the end, swap exercises and work your way back.
2nd round
Same format as before, but 10 squats while the partner does 10 LBC’s
3rd round (cut short for time)
Same format but one partner did 20 Shoulder taps, while the other partner did 10 BBS

Time was called and we set a timer for 10 minutes.
The goal was to hold plank starting on your elbows for as long as you could.  When you break plank you perform the following:
10 Burpees
10 Lunges (5 each leg)
20 High knees
then resume the plank position.  It was ok to modify to planking from your hands.

Repeat this until the timer sounds at 10 minutes.

MARY:
There was no time for Mary, we did plenty of core work during the workout.

Chasing Weighty Goals

THE SCENE: Just about perfect with low humidity and comfortable upper 60’s
WARM-O-RAMA:
PAX got to enjoy an immediate round of burpees as the QIC screwed up the F3 order; finished off with a round of SSHs, one tempo merkin, some tai fighters, and squatting Grady corns
THA-THANG:

Never ending pain circle… 4 stations (aka corners) with specific workout at each (1. CMU Squat Thrusters, 2. Alternating CMU Merkins, 3. CMU American Hammers, 4. CMU Kettle Bell Swings).  Start at 20 reps per corner in first round and drop by 1 rep in each subsequent round.  Perform exercise, sit down CMU and run a lap, rifle carry CMU to next station, rinse and repeat.

Overtime fun… mixture of murder bunnies, rifle carries, dock loading, and some curls to finish off before restocking those lovely cinder beauties.  (@Betty managed to run through his CMU doing a murder bunny… so we worked in a few burpees on the way back to the AO)

MARY:

Had time for a howler monkey circle as we closed out the sesh.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
11 HIMs started and finished the beatdown

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Setting goals… been thinking through my personal goals for the year and recent months and considering ways to improve my success rate.  Important to set S.M.A.R.T. goals (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time Bound).  But more importantly to share them with others to hold you accountable.  Dave Ramsey said that “a list of goals with no actions [or accountability] is just a wishlist”.  Encouraged the PAX to set goals, share them someone, and get after them!  Read Proverbs 21:5 “Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.” NLT

Prayer Requests:  1) @Dumpster Dive and @Charmin wisdom to make some key decisions at their practice; 2) @Longnoodle having some personal challenges and needs widsom, strength, and discipline; 3) @Pom-Pom’s 1 month old daughter having a medical procedure today – healing and recovery
