Be anti fragile. You can be resilient but you are only surviving. If you are anti fragile , you will thrive and not just survive . Look up “black swan” in the lexicon or better yet, listen to the f3 podcast , 43 feet . Dred explains it wonderfully ! He breaks down , fragile , resilient, and being anti fragile

if interested in the specific podcast, let me know and I will send it

  • SSH
  • Imperial Walkers
  • Mountain Climbers
  • Baby Arm Circles
  • Merkins

THA-THANG:

  1. Mosey’d down to the open field for a game of Turkey Tag:
    • First game everyone was on their own. You get tagged, you do 10 merkins and hold plank till the last Pax is tagged.
    • Second game we did 2.0s vs 1.0s. They dominated us. There was no chance at survival…
  2. Mosey’d over over to the hill by the tennis courts for a little Dora/Kora- the 2.0’s partnered up and the 1.0’s partnered up for:
    • 100-LBCs
    • 75-Squats (why don’t squats have a silly name??)
    • 50-Merkins
  3. Mosey’d back to the open field by the Volleyball net and played a little game of Retriever- Q punts soccer ball and which ever PAX gets their first gets to call out a workout, to make it fair each Pax can only retrieve once:
    • Gridiron selected SSH x 10
    • Alabama selected Freddy Mercury’s x 10
    • xxx selected Pistons x 20
    • Ninja selected Arms Circles x 20

I fartsacked on Friday.  I found out about the accountability of F3 when Bunny called me out for not showing up.  To paraphrase – to miss one F3 work out, shame on me.  To miss two workouts, shame on you.  I decided to up the accountability ante by picking up the Q.  Then I had to attend.
