Calling all PAX…

F3 Gastonia is launching a men’s walking-only workout and we would like your support of this historic event! Officially, we will launch this new workout on Saturday, March 28 at 7:00 AM. We will meet in the parking lot of the Schiele Museum on Garrison Blvd at the same time as Gashouse and Pain Lab. We will un-officially get started this Saturday, March 7 (same time and place).

What started five years ago as a single weekly bootcamp-style workout on Saturday mornings has grown to over 20 different workouts throughout the week across Gaston County (see these on our website). All these workouts meet different exercise needs from strenuous low-impact activities to running/rucking to high-energy bootcamps – and the upcoming ultra-high-impact Annihilation workout.

This will be our first workout dedicated to walking – targeting men that do not participate in our more rigorous workouts, but still want to benefit from regular fitness and fellowship, which are core to F3.

As a guideline… we are saying that if you can walk a mile (of a few laps round the track), your qualified! The F3 Credo says, “Leave no man behind, but leave no man where you find him.” We have a unique opportunity to increase the impact we have in our community.

What is needed?

  1. Spread the word! If you know some seasoned men looking for light exercise and fellowship – or some FNGs or Kotters really struggling on the IR list… make sure they know about this.
  2. Let us know! We launched an email campaign last night to reach out to this new segment of our community and will send out weekly reminders until the launch. Send Bandit any email addresses, we’ll add them to the list.
  3. Join us! Come walk the walk and talk the talk (mumblechatter). Join us one Saturday to share the real F3 experience with our FNGs. Not sure you’ll get a great workout? Remember – it’s you vs. you… only difference in walking and rucking is the weight you add in your pack! #justsaying

Any questions… let us know!

Respect,
Linus & Bandit
