Since YHC moved over from Charlotte Metro he has been please to have dual citizenship in both the Gastonia and Metro regions. F3 works because of the relationships we build and the workouts are just a reflection of that success. So with that in mind having been to a Mancave Sunday workout a couple of weeks ago I told Ditka and Carrier to come on over to The Yank next time I was leading and get to know Belmont and Gastonia F3. They heartily accepted so when YHC came up in rotation I got word to them and they showed up! Knowing they were coming YHC decided to rollout the red carpet and show the metro brothers just why coming over to Gaston for a workout or anything else is ALWAYS a good call! So with that in mind a Tesla tour began. Went like this:
COP:
SSH X 20
2 burpees
IW X20
4 burpees
Cooperhead squats X 15
6 burpees
Merkins X 10
8 burpees
LBCs X 20
10 burpees.
Now for the tour. Could not have picked a better day for it! Bright sunshine and 35 degrees. off to the first corner, the Stowe house.

NMM:
Great to have our metro brothers over for a morning at The Yank. Gives YHC pause to appreciate the gift of F3 which is the relationships we build that power us through the tough times and make the good times even better. I have seen F3 change entire lives all for the better and that was never the intent. But it is a great result of what we do! Makes us better men and in turn builds a better community. Which we embark upon next week as the Revolution workout begins. They need it, we need it, Let’s give it away.
YHC will tweet out the meeting place and time fro those who want to go over next Saturday for the launch. Gastonia F3 nomads will visit on March 31.
We will bill the Belmont Chamber for our intro to Belmont and Gaston County later! Our brothers will return for a Friday night out on the town in April. Keep you posted about that. Until then, keep pushing!
