3 Pax arrived at the Sword where we read the Epistle of Jude. Take five minutes and read it!
There is nothing better than starting the week with the Word at the Sword.
The verse of the week:
Jude 1:22 – “And have mercy on those who doubt”
Big Pappy
Day: May 11, 2020
Twenty PAX arrived to participate in the Pain Lab or a bootcamp at the OG and finest AO in the Gastonia region. YHC anticipated that there would be more than ten bootcampers and had several Weinke’s printed out. #Preparedness
There was lots of EC out there, both running and Rucking. When the ruckers returned we saw Jobu and Godfather! #Kotters Another look around the circle revealed a particularly swole Dolph who has obviously been slinging the weights lately. #Curlsforthegirls
Watts Up led the combined warm up and gave a disclaimer.
Short Sale took half the bootcampers and I took the other half. Some modifications may have been made but here is the basic workout:
Dora 1,2,3 with Jump Squats, LBC’s, and Flutters
Track work: 10 burpees, Nur half a lap
10 burpees, 50 Squats, Karaoke half a lap
10 burpees, 50 squats, Karaoke, 10 8-count bodybuilders, run half a lap, Plank one minute
Run half a lap,
Step ups, 20 IC; Derkins 10 IC, Dips, 20 IC x 3
10 more burpees, and return to start with more Jobu’s (Monkey Humpers) and ten more burpees.
Sargento gets a participation medal as an injury prevented him from completing every exercise but A) he was present B)he brought an FNG (Who lives in Dallas and didn’t go to Folsom) and C)modified as necessary. Welcome FNG Laettner. UNC Grad and 6 years in the Marine Corps #thankyouforyourservice
A socially distant COT was in order with prayers going out for Breaker’s M, all the PAX, a man undergoing a kidney transplant, and those with uncertain career futures.
Stay strong PAX and keep pushing the rock.
It seems like we’ve been away from Mt. Hollywood forever, but evidently it hasn’t been long enough for them to do something about the condition of the parking lot. I guess since there’s no school, there’s no need for some decent pavement. Regardless, 7 PAX met in the gloom on this morning to put in some work. Disclaimer, pledge and warmup were completed and then we got to work. It went something like this:
Start at the front of the school and perform the following escalator work OYO:
10IC Dirty Hookups
Run a lap
10IC Dirty Hookups, 20 Dips
Run a lap
10IC Dirty Hookups, 20 Dips, 30 Merkins
Run a lap
10IC Dirty Hookups, 20 Dips, 30 Merkins, 40 LBC’s
Run a lap
10IC Dirty Hookups, 20 Dips, 30 Merkins, 40 LBC’s, 50 Flutter Kicks
Run a lap
This was so much fun that we ran it back starting at the top.
Still time for about 10 minutes of ab work and 5 minutes of stretching to close it out.

YHC had a verse for this morning, but we ended up taking some time to catch up, discuss current situations and whether or not anyone knew of any needs within the region. Keep your eyes and ears open for any needs as you resume posting and reconnecting with PAX you haven’t seen for a while. F3 is more than a workout!
Dr. Seuss took us out.

There were a lot of runners, ruckers and bikers on the streets of Dallas on Sunday. The turnout for the run Pizza Man organized in memory of his niece was awesome and a few that didn’t want to run quite that far posted around the corner at Crossroads. 3 ran 5 miles and 4 rode bikes and harassed the runners. Strong work by all.
