Whoopee had a HC FNG for Monday at the Sandlot and the guy was a no show due to being on call.  Fast forward two days at the Ricky Bobby and sure enough, there he was!  He works with Defib and Whoopee and the RB is closer to his house so instead of the Labryinth, we got him at the RB.

YHC wrote an FNG (sort of) friendly workout where we went over core tenants to F3 to enhance the PAX knowledge of F3 Nation.  Here is how it went down.

Warm up and Disclaimer

SSH, Merkins, Squats, and LBC’s.  We then moseyed to the track for a half lap and ended up behind the school for a review of the 5 core principles.  The PAX would call out one of the five, and we would do an exercise that starts with the first letter of the principle.

Free=Freddie Mercury’s

Outside=Oblique Crunches

Open to all Men= Outlaws

Peer led in rotating fashion=Peter Parkers

Ends in COT=Circle Burp

We moseyed to the other end of the parking lot for DORA, but before that we discussed the Credo: Leave No Man Behind but leave no man where you found him.

Partner up  Dora 1,2,3  100 Merkins, 200 Squats, 300 Flutters

Several pairs converted Squats to LBC’s but then switched to squats.  #QFail

We then moseyed to the walkway to the back of the school and bear crawled to the top.
We hit the stairs for 50 calf raises with toes straight, 50 duck footed, and 50 pigeon toed.

Next we moseyed around the school and lunge walked and did two burpees at each light pole. We then walked backwards up the hill to the front of the school and stopped at each light pole for an exercise to include Mike Tysons, bird feeders, big boys, and 8 count bodybuilders.

Our FNG modified the big boys and contemplated merlot splashing for a few minutes.

We ended the workout a little early to dial in the COT and still went long!

Announcements:

Peak to peak this Sunday

Annihilation Saturday at the Gashouse

Labor Day workout at Fuse stadium (Convergence)

Coconut Derby the day before

We prayed for Turtleman, Huckleberry, Charlie with cancer, David, Norwood, a coworker of Blueprint.

 

We forgot the pledge (Qfail) but did a solid naming of our FNG.  A surgeon who worked odd jobs growing up to get money including shoveling snow in Ohio and working at a Dairy Queen we named him Blizzard.  As usual, it could have been worse.

Good job for Whoopee on the solid EH and for Defib for coming so he knew at least two PAX.
I put a post on onehimsjunk well over a year ago and am happy to report that I finally gave Buckshot the poster for his kids that I was supposed to give him many, many months ago.

There are many men in our region who aren’t posting with F3 and I am not sure why they don’t.  Be intentional in talking about F3 and being welcoming to new guys.  Although YHC didn’t modify much of a standard Q, it is always a good idea not to crush new guys as our goal is to get them back out!

Always a pleasure to lead,

Roscoe
