Normally I likes to sprinkle in trivia questions into the workout with a 5 burpee penalty for wrong answers.  Today was different.

Mosey up to the track behind the old middle school.  I had the pax partner up, but partner up with someone they don’t know very well.  During the workout, I gave them different questions to discuss with their partner and then we went around and each pax shared the answer of their partner.  Some of the questions were:

Who is the most famous person you’ve ever met? (Y’all need to ask Tiger this question!)
What’s your favorite sports team?
What was your favorite vacation?
What is the origin of your F3 name?
Who got you to come to F3 originally and why do you keep coming back?

The questions were designed to get to spark some conversation and get to know our brothers better.  Good discussion and a lot of laughs were had throughout the whole workout.

For the main workout, we did the accumulator.  The way it works is we do exercise #1 for 1 minute, take a lap around the track.  Do exercise #2 for 1 minute, exercise #1 for 1 minute, take a lap around the track.  Do exercise #3 for 1 minute, exercise #2 for 1 minute, exercise #1 for 1 minute, take a lap…you get the idea.  These were the exercises

SSH
Merkins
American Hammers
Mountain Climbers
Burpees (ugh…)
Crunchy Frogs
Overhead Claps

Then we did Dora 1-2-3.  100 flying squirrels, 200 squats, 300 LBCs.  Wait…Omaha!  100 flying squirrels was too many – we did 50.

Mosey back to the flag.
