Two Year Anniversary at the Nut: Co-Qs Dauber and Flanigan

/in /by

FNGs. none

Warm Up:  Dauber led PAX for a quick jog circling up in the parking lot for the following warm-up exercises:  25 SSH, 10 Sir Fazio Arm Circles (F/B); 10 Daisy Pickers; 10 Imperial Walkers; 10 T-claps; 10 Seal-claps;  Static Arm stretching (L/R, behind the back).  PAX without kettle bells Mosey to the rock pile for medium sized rock (overachiever Breach picked up an XL one).  PAX held plank, rotating R arm and L arm up, until all PAX circled up for the main event led by co-Q, Flanigan.

The Workout:  Flanigan reminisced about one of his early Qs, researching F3 lexicon and coming across a routine called “blackjack”.  PAX lined up at the start of the parking lot with their rock/kettlebell.  Executed one wonder bra.  Lunged to the next bumpout in the parking lot and began the second portion of blackjack with 20 merkins (1+20=21).  Lunged back to the start.  Increased wonderbra rep to two.  Lunged back to the bumpout for 19 merkins.  Get the idea?  Lunges, (a.k.a. Rest period) was changed to a quick jog after about 8-9 rotations in fear of not completing the full blackjack by 6:15 am.  Lots of sweating and mumble chatter (merkins done for the week after this workout).  In all, 210 merkins and 210 wonder-bras were completed.  (20!). Shoulders on fire!    Flanigan was not done.  He grabbed a parachute (BRR Training – new in Box) from his SUV and had PAX taking turns jogging to the end of the parking up the hill and then deploying the chute while sprinting back to line of PAX.  PAX executed curls while watching running man with chute.  Due to time constraints, not all PAX got a chance to try the chute.  (some brave souls stayed post AO trying out the attached chute).  Lots of drag for sure.

Mary:  Dauber took over the reigns from Flanigan and had PAX get on their six for some core and began performing H2M.  More PAX joined in after returning their rocks.  PAX performed 10 additional H2M (right leg, left leg up); 10 Box cutters, 10 low-slow flutters.  Have a nice day!

Announcements:  Support PAX running Quay or completing local Tri this Saturday if you are not participating in these two events; (good luck to those brothers running, swimming, biking); Dads/2.0 workout delayed one week; H1N1 one year anniversary at PT tomorrow; see other announcements on social media.  Nice job Abe wearing Breathtaker.

T-Claps (Recognition):  These two studs:  Dauber and Flanigan. Congratulations on two years with F3!


Prayer:  Dauber took us out.  Prayers for injured PAX.  Silent/unspoken.

 

Thank you for the opportunity to lead you men.  An honor.   -Flanigan and Dauber.

FNGs: 0

Another great morning to get out in the gloom and better ourselves.  As Kid Cracker overshot the turn into the parking lot, there was hope from some of the pax that he would “Bo Duke” the curb.  Didn’t happen…..  5:30am hit, and we were off.

  • Help out the HS Food Pantry this weekend from 9am to noon

T-Claps (Recognition):  To all the Pax.  100m strides with little rest and exercises in between definitely gets your heart rate up.  It’s not about beating other Pax, it’s about beating yourself and putting in the effort.

Prayer:

Prayers up for Crab Legs, Pilgrim’s dad, my father’s wife, and those dealing with ailments.

Honored to lead.
