13 PAX hit Midoriyama for the premier afternoon workout. Recently I’ve heard quite a few people mention they don’t know who Floppy Disk is. This is because he hasn’t posted in quite sometime because as he puts it “we run too much”(he likes to mtn bike).  So today I decided to introduce everyone to Floppy disk. Below is a workout he Q’d back in 2016. We modified a little-blockees were burpees and we added an extra lap at the end. This workout sucked!!!! I think everyone was quite surprised! Below was copied and pasted from that workout.

 

What is 2 + 2 yelled Floppy Disk, today’s Q. In unison, the men grunted four. Floppy retorted, NO! It’s three and I’ll prove it!

With a round of laughter, no one believed and they knew he was crazy.

Floppy took the pax to the ministry of love to prove to them that it indeed equaled three. Firing up a timer with intervals set at three minutes the first thang was yelled out. “Blockies”!

When that three minutes of horror ended, plank was shouted. Then squats, air jump ropes,  plank jack to sit-ups, star jacks, lunges, LBC’s, merkins and more. The onslaught of three-minute exercises didn’t stop until time ran out.

By the end, all were in agreement. “2+2=3” and love is hate.1

COT

Pledge, prayer, and while leaving we talked about some of the places in the bible that mentions the number three. Jonah in the belly of the fish for three days, Jesus’s ministry lasted three years, Peter denied him three times, the rooster crowed three times.

 

Moleskin

Who is Floppy Disk? FD is a good friend of mine. He is the guy who helped kill Fat Ricky. He got me tracking my food and going to the gym before F3. He was one of the founding 3 that started Midoriyama. He has and does a lot with our website. He covers the $100 server fee for us every year. He’s a great father and husband, a bit of an introvert but will talk to people if they will bother Def Leopard. He loves to ride bikes and hate’s to run. Between motorcycles and mtn bikes he’s broken about every bone in his body twice! You would think he would just give up and run but he falls down doing that too. All in all he’s just a good guy.
