Bumps and blocks

THE SCENE: Clear skies, 37 degrees, perfect for a beat down
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER : 

WARM-O-RAMA:
SSH, high knees and butt kickers.  Did some plank poses, downward dog and 10 tempo Merkins.  Then did some Tie Fighters and was ready to roll out of the AO, but then the originator of the Tie Fighter lived up to his name and exited the scene for a few minutes.  Out of deference to Code Brown, we hung around awhile and did some Rocky Balboas, Super Marios and bear crawl 360 at the AO. Then we headed out.
THA-THANG:

  • Bump your partner – Partner up with one CMU.  Make your way up the tail of the dragon to the Coliseum.  One partner goes ahead with the block and the other does 5 burpees or 10 merkins then runs to catch partner, take the CMU and go ahead while the other partner does 5 burpees or 10 merkins and so on until you both reach the Coliseum.
  • One partner does AMRAP CMU exercises while the other partner completes a lap around the oval in front of the Admin building. Thrusters, Wood Choppers, Block Swings, Up and Over Merkins, Lying Lat Raise, Alternating Lunges, Curl/Press.  There were others planned but we ran out of time.
  • Bump your partner back to the AO.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Jesus didn’t wait for us to do this or do that before he sacrificed himself for us.  Let’s not wait for others to do this or do that before we reach out to them, forgive, help out, serve. Take the initiative.  While we were yet sinners, He died for us.
MOLESKIN:
That was a pretty exhausting workout.  Shoutout to @Woodshack for teaching me the cmu bump a few years ago.  A great way to move a cmu!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Talked about the life of Tom Morey: inventor of the boogie board.  Who took his love of surfing and being in God’s creation and making it accessable to everyone.  Talked about what a legacy he left and how it mirrors what F3 is all about.

Let’s Count to 30, Then Let’s Do It Again!

THE SCENE: Actually quite pleasant. At least better than earlier in the week. 

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER Did this. Just a few questions from the crowd. Moving on …

WARM-O-RAMA:

SSH IC x10; LBAC IC x10 EWay; Tempo Squat x10; 1 Burpee

THA-THANG:

Pavilion: Repeat 3x

Playground:  Death by Counting

    • WWI Sit-ups / Diamond Merkins 
  • 9s
    • Imperial Squat Walkers / Smurf Jacks 

**Narrator: It was at this point (during the 21s) that the Q realized he had made a terrible mistake. WWI sit-ups became LBCs around the 15 mark. Q ended the 21s at the 11/10 mark**

Circus Maximus: Introducing the “Blindside Biscuit”. Like a Sea Biscuit, but better. 1 Lap, 30 reps of an exercise, ab work. As soon as the 6 gets to the ab work, the Q starts IC count x10, then onto the next lap. Keep the PAX together.

  • 30 Merkins → Carioca to next corner (see above) 

**Time Called** 

MARY: No time 

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA Actually forgot to do this. Whoops 

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

This was my 30th Q and first of 3 days in a row, hence the 30s and 3s all throughout the beatdown. 

Luke 12:48 says… “With much power, comes much responsibility.” Wait… that was Uncle Ben Parker from Spider-Man. What it ACTUALLY says in Luke is, “When much has been given to a man, much will be required of him.” We are rightly held to a higher standard as members of the Body of Christ. Because God wants all to be saved, he insists on us spreading the Good News. WE have been given the Gospel, it is OUR duty to save the lost.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Shared how we should not fear sharing our faith with others knowing that God will put is in the right place at the right time with the right words, as long as we surrender to His Will.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.””
