Midoriyama 6/6/23

1st F Q Flintstone has been keeping the Gashouse PAX motivated with an array of PT tests. The standard PT test, Thunder and Lightning. YHC decided to administer the Thunder PT test at Midoriyama. Of course it’s the hottest day of the year, air quality index is red and the wind ain’t blowing. Perfect conditions for a PT test on the asphalt (Q fail).

Warmup – Usual stuff

Around the turd shack and grab the blocks. Circle up and start the clock for the THUNDER PT test. AMRAP for 25 minutes of the following exercises:

  • 12 Thrusters
  • 12 Curls
  • 12 American Hammers w/ coupon (xtra suck factor)
  • 12 Block Swings
  • 12 Bent Over Rows
  • 12 Big Boys
  • 12 Heels to Heaven
  • 12 Burpees

96 Reps per round. Keep up with rounds completed and number of reps completed on the round that the PAX were completing.

About 7 minutes remained, so we performed 10 to 1 curls and overhead presses. Put the blocks up, muster at the flag for 22 Merkins for the vets and the Pledge.

The heat wore the guys down pretty quick. Halfway through the 2nd round, Leppard is laid out on the grass attempting to regain his breath. Freight threatened a mutiny and start a trail running AO immediately (you hate to see it). Defib pushed through and crushed the test (showing his future son-in-law Rip Cord how it’s done).Instead of keeping up with rounds completed, Happy Trees used his sidewalk chalk to draw happy Christmas trees on the asphalt. WikiLeaks needs to hear more good rock music. Hokie picked the worst day to get back out in the gloom, but he pushed through like a trooper. Haze was talking delirious and you could fry an egg on Pall Bearer’s head. This PT test will be even better when we perform it again in August!

Welcome to FNG Rip Cord. He was EH’d by his future father-in-law, Defib. Glad to have you at Midoriyama, brother!

Character(s) at Crossroads

9 bike riders and 3 runners got together at Crossroads for cardio, fellowship, and our leadership lesson featuring General Eisenhower.

First of all, Happy Birthday to Mayor!

Slaw wins the award for best dressed; Haze..well..

Broke’s broken in my bike already. Looks like it finally has found its home.

Gearwrench wins the survival award for making it back alive despite a close clip.

Freight was doing some Father’s Day shopping for himself..just in case;)

Gumby tried for a free drink.

Wirenut seemed a little lost for words when Mayor suggested that he lead a Q Source.

Wik and I had great fellowship as we ran the Blart loop. Blart runs this consistently.

Word:

and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith—Phil. 3:9 

“God himself, through his Son’s atoning work, sets everything right between him and us by counting Christ’s righteousness to us – the actual righteousness of His Son.” 

Wik took us out!

So much to be thankful for..you F3 guys are very much amongst them!
