Last Call for Q School
10 PAX for the final scheduled March 2024 Q school hosted at Downtown Train.
Why Q school? This is to help with F3 formality (uniform) across all regions so if you attend an AO in New York or Texas it’ll still be close to the same structure.
3 main topics to cover – How to Q? Why to Q? (new exciting things) Are you ready to Q?
Sample structure for warm up with some discussion:
Disclaimer, warmup, workout (the thang), Mary, CoT – 45 mins total time, get a watch. Assign a sweeper if you have a large group of FNG’s.
Bring a Flag if you plan to Q. If you don’t have one, ask site Q to bring one.
Conduct WU and have guys take turns with exercises. SSH, Good Mornings, etc.
Be ready for CoT with announcements and prayer requests/praises

UFO High Score Comeback
22 PAX for some not too windy Ultimate! We had even teams and even score after a great comeback but the pinnies prevailed.
TBD if suicides are all fun and games
FNGs: none
Warm Up: side straddle hop, imperial walkers, hillbillies, merkins, frankensteins, prisoner squats, sir fazio arm circles, seal claps
The Workout:
PAX did a short Indian run to the opposite parking lot. Workout was suicides to the trees in the median. 1st Stop = 10 star jumps, return home, 2nd stop = 20 merkins, return home, 3rd stop = 30 star jumps, return home, 4th stop = 40 merkins. Return home. Work your way back down at 5th, 6th and 7th tree returning home each time.
Mosey to amphitheater for some dips, step ups and erkins then continue on to rock pile.
Medium rock for some All about the Benjamins. 25 curls for the girls, 25 lunges, 25 squats, 25 lunges, 25 overhead press, 25 lunges, 25 chest press followed by 20 skull crushers and 20 ruh rohs.

Announcements: Several on track for a 5 pack this week.
T-Claps (Recognition): Good work to those putting in the effort for the 5 pack
Prayer: Captain Kangaroo F3 Raleigh passed away. Koshers dad undergoing surgery. Bobby Bouchers family.
A little confusion couldn’t stop us
FNGs:
Warm Up: SSH, Good Mornings, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Windmills, Sir Fazio Arm Circles, Seal Claps, Overhead Claps
The Workout: On the menu today was a modified Murph, done AMRAP style (no specific count to achieve). Since it was rainy, Best In Show made the recommendation that we modify the pull-ups as to not slip and risk injury. We opted for dips instead.
We started out with a quick lap around the soccer fields. Then it was explained that this would be an AMRAP workout, 45 seconds on and 15 seconds off. Three exercises: dips, merkins, squats. Free to do them in whichever order, but switch each time. The idea of an AMRAP Murph seemed to throw PAX for a loop at first, but these are a bunch of smart guys and they caught on pretty quickly. We were able to get in 7 rounds of that before closing it out with another lap around the soccer fields.
Mary: Popcorn Mary
Announcements:
– Free CPR class at Holly Springs Library, Feb 7 at 6:30pm!
– Watch out for your fellow PAX and reach out when you think they could use some help.

Reindeer Tryouts amid the 12 Days of Christmas
FNGs: Nil
Warm Up:
Side Straddle Hop
Windmills
Daisy Pickers
Frankensteins
Imperial Walkers
Sir Fazio Arm Circles
The Workout:
Reindeer Run (Indian Run) the long way around the main fields with our destination set at the rock pile. Grab a medium size rock and carry it back to the smaller picnic shelter.
We performed the 12 Days of Christmas workout just as the song intended. YHC figured out the bluetooth speaker this time and had some free Spotify playlist at the ready. Apparently “Pop Christmas” isn’t just Christmas songs, so we had quite the variety as well as some mumblechatter about various prescription drugs and their side effects brought on by the ads.

1 Lap around the Tennis Court
2 Monkey Humpers
3 French High Knees (Ea. Leg)
4 Calling Curls for the Girls
5 Golden Ground Pounders
6 Geese a Laying Leg Lifts
7 Swans a Squatting
8 Maids a Merkins
9 Ladies Break Dancing (Bears) (I.C.)
10 Lords a Lunging (Ea. Leg)
11 Pickle’s Pounding (I.C.)
12 Drummer’s Driving Buses (I.C.)
Mary:
A lot of Mary mixed in with the workout, due to time constraints, we did a bit of stretching and closed it out.
Announcements:
Be safe with upcoming Holidays and travel
Prayer:
Pray for patience and being an example for those around us. Holidays can bring us together with family we may not always get along with, but give strength and patience to the HIM we want to be.
