Gashouse Special

It was a perfect morning to make it a great day at the Gashouse. 8 HIM were there to push the rock and show their knowledge of all things F3 and other letters. This is what happened…

Disclaimer, no FNGs

Pledge of Allegiance

YHC began the questioning with one that we don’t cover too often. What is the mission of F3? The answer was given by past Nantan Stroganoff, “To plant, grow and serve small men’s workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.” Past Nantan Whoopee explained that it was originally “for the re-invigoration of male community leadership.” Either way you say it, F3 is obviously more than just a workout, it’s also a leadership organization! With that, the PAX split up and the bootcampers followed YHC away to destinations unknown.

We moseyed up Garrison and ended up in the back of 1st Presbyterian church. YHC asked the PAX how many letters are in the alphabet, with the answer of 26 given by some wise PAX. With that, the Thang was revealed.

The Alphabet!!!

A – American Hammers x20 IC

B- Big Boy Situps x20 OYO

C – CDDs x20 IC

D – Daniel Sons x20 OYO

E – E2K x10 IC each leg (look it up)

Take a lap around the church. Upon return and the 6 arriving, YHC asked for one of the core principles of F3. Someone said it was Open to All Men. That right it is! Mosey, stopping for a few seconds of wall sit and then resuming until we reached the parking lot of Parkwood Baptist where we returned to the regularly scheduled programming.

F – Flutter Kicks x50 IC

G – Goofballs x50 IC

H – Hillbillies x 25 IC

I – Imperial Walkers x25 IC

J – Jingle Balls x25 IC (YHC joked around and called this something silly during the workout but Defib called it correctly)

Take a lap around the church. Upon returning, YHC called for another of the core principles. “Peer led” was the call I think. Mosey across the street to the Grier track and our regularly scheduled programming.

K – Knerkins x20 OYO

L – LBCs x50 IC

M – Monkey Humpers x25 IC

N – Nolan Ryans x10 IC each side

O – Whoopee called something I can’t recall, which we did IC. Then we did Outlaws x10 IC each direction.

Take a lap around the track. Upon returning YHC called for another core principle. “Men only” was the call I think. Mosey back across the street to the library and our regularly scheduled programming.

P – Plank Jacks x25 IC

Q – Quick Step (a Sargento original) x25 IC

R – Rocky Balboas – x25 IC

S – Side Straddle Hops x25 IC

T – Turkish Getups – there was dispute about whether you can use a hand to get up. Because of this dispute, most PAX didn’t do the exercise. Whatevs. Take a lap!

Upon returning, YHC called for another core principle. “Ends in a COT” was given. The final core principle of “Free” was called out as well. Mosey across the street to the museum for the finale of the the beatdown.

U – Up Downs x 1 OYO

V – V-Ups x 10 IC

W – Werkins x20 IC

X – skipped it

Y – skipped it

Z – Zombie walk across the parking lot.

Time! Great job hanging with plenty of mumblechatter to boot!
