Diablo Sammich is probably one of my favorite places to visit. I feel like there is such a great opportunity for the 2nd F of F3.   I think this is in part because I am not sucking wind like I do at other workouts and can actually speak.   So after the last meeting at the Sammich, Gastone asked for a Q, and I gladly volunteered.

Pledge

Warmup:

SSH x 10 IC (with packs…lol)

Let’s roll…

We did a little mosey to Gastone’s hill and did number of squats, merkins and LBCs/ flutter kicks as we NURed to the top.  We then left and did some wall squats at food lion and then again at Harris teeter. These were super fun as our quads were on fire by that point. On the way back we had a few minutes and HIPAA and WattsUp told me what they sometimes do on the short wall on the way back so we did some step ups and some dips.  Made it back to snowballs and did some Mary to finish up.  Great work men.  It was a pleasure leading y’all today.

Announcements And prayer request.

I told the men, that I wanted to brag on them for a minute. It is always fun at every workout. You men are always there, making someone smile, listening to each other before you speak.  Thank you all for caring, for listening, and most of all for your prayers.   Keep up the good work. Keep pushing each other. Keep holding each other accountable.

Thank you for another great workout!!!

As I have said before, and as some of y’all experienced last Saturday at the Gashouse, Montross and Whoopie delivered the epitome of what a F3 workout is.  When I began to put together my game plan for Bulldog I took some pages from their playbook and added a few other terrible things in order to challenge myself and hopefully my fellow F3 brothers. So it went something like this:

Pledge

13 in the  Beautiful afternoon at Midoriyama.  Being that I have a short memory, I am so thankful to have been reminded that I had the Q.  I have a work out that I had done at another AO.  I thought that it would work well for this evening. With a few adjustments, adding in some Burpee‘s for my man Slaw,  I knew that this would suck, so I decided this was the wenkie for us! Time nearing as I pull up. I see plenty of Pax getting their EC on.  With that we began.

Warmup

Prayer request.

Each other.  Many request, spoken and unspoken. Remember we are each other’s brother in Christ. Reach out if you need help or just want to vent.

I shared  with the men  about traveling through life. There are HOV lanes in our cities today to encourage each other to travel together to stay out of the clutter of the highway.  To get to your destinations quicker and safer. The Lord wants The same thing for us. He wants us to travel together in life, encouraging one another, praying with one another, helping one another, and most of all loving one another.  Remember to keep Christ centered in your life, and if you need help; we your brothers are here for you.

Thank you you guys for another afternoon delight. It’s always fun listening to the mumblechatter.

The weather was great this Friday so we took advantage of the opportunity to get better.
Warm up
Ssh,cherry pickers,merkins,hillbilly, crab reach.
Mosey to the wall on 321 to do some walls sits and raise the roof.
Then went across the street for some fun the coupons laying around.biceps, triceps, shoulders, then we lined up Hipaa had the heaviest so we used his to pass back and forth while doing another round of walls sits. Mumble chatter was going great by now from it’s wet to what will these cars think of us. YHC reminded them it does not matter what does is that we are doing work. Speaking of work let’s mosey.took a stop at the corner of franklin and 321 to do some rocky balboas and calf raises 50 each x3. Then down the street to do some dips and Derkins. Kinda like dippn dots without the sweet little frozen balls. Again weather was nice did not here any complaints about frozen balls. We then teamed up for sprints and squats one runs other squats up the street then fellowship down then lunge back up. My legs felt wonderful so much that Clavin had to show me what a real lunge looked like vs my version of a bad sobriety test. Then back up to the rotary for Mary and talk about the power of prayer!

Remember: prayer can be powerful and effective. We are blessed to pray as a group of men together many times a week, the C.O.T. In my mind is like a antenna going directly to God.

Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like Men, be strong.
