Mosey towards the Big Ball and up the stairs towards pedestrian bridge.  Bear crawl across pedestrian bridge, each time a PAX stops to rest results in penalty of 5 prisoner squats at the end of the bridge.  Q took the six and no one was doing squats, so the entire group did 10 prisoner squats on four count in cadence.  Continue mosey to Market Square.  PAX assemble at the stage end of the square in front of the TVA building.

Routine is a variation on the Dirty Mac Deuce.  Four rounds of three exercises, 20 reps each, once a round is completed PAX take a lap around Market Square and move on to next set.  Exercises as follows:

  • Round 1: Derkins, lunges, superman swims
  • Round 2: Incline merkins, jump squats, Edward scissorlegs
  • Round 3: Wide merkins, calf raises, side crunches

COT/BOM
Our mission is simple, “Plant, grow and serve small men’s workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.”  I believe all of us want to be better leaders, and that’s good…but not enough.  Desire with out action changes nothing.  If we want to be better leaders, we need to lead!  In big ways, small ways and every way in between.  That is one of the many things F3 gives us, the opportunity to lead.  The opportunity to grow.  Again, opportunity changes nothing unless it is seized.  The more we practice leading the more confident we are when the opportunity arises.  Today, seize every opportunity to lead presented to you.  That is how HIMs do it!
