Cold Shock on the Yard

/in /by

Much colder in the gloom today than in the recent couple weeks. Back to watching for black ice and frozen fingers. The number of inmates in the Yard was 9-er.

FNG’s: none
Warm Up: Good Mornings, Imperial Walkers, Sir Fazio’s, Frankensteins, Willy Mays Hayes, SSH.
The Workout: Counter off by 4. Each group starts at a different rotation with a choice of pain heavy implements. The rotations were: Chest/Back, Arms, Legs, Shoulders. Each rotation was 3:30, then switch on. Pax choose their implement and exercise to target the noted area.

Once all rotations complete, we took a fellowship mosey of just under a mile.

Rinse and repeat the rotations once more.
Mary: LBC’s IC x30, Box Cutters ICx25, WW2’s x 20

Prayer: Praises for this brotherhood of F3 and welcoming those coming back off injury, etc.

As promised a never done before F3 workout Indoors! Basketball full Court!!

/in /by

Warm Up: Moseyed to indoor Basketball gym.

Stood on Baseline for the Pledge of All Allegiance

Workout: We had exactly 20 so we divided up into 4 groups and played 2 separate games of full court 5 on 5. We rotated after halfway. I don’t think our ball skills were very sharp in the beginning. Most of the PAX got better as time progressed except for Guatemalan. He pretty much stood in the same place every time and asked for the ball.

I know sometimes we do a lot of the same things every week. Thought this would be fun to mix it up a bit. Those that shined like @pumps because he has skills and @Fram the rest made up for it in fouls and large bodies pushing and shoving. Thank God we did not call fouls today. I would have fouled out before the second game…BTW I am pretty sure my Team won both games @bobby bouche @deadbolt @mookie @maddog. Next time we play @banannaseat will be on a 3-man team due to his speed!

 

Mary: No Time

T Claps: Bosshog and the new addition to the Family! Congratulations

Prayers: Thanks for the prayer support for my Mom. Our Country, Injured PAX, 3rd cousin who took a dive OTW back. Hope he is okay!

YHC had a very late ask in the evening if I wanted the Q spot as it was open…Sure I said why not. I’d been kicking around a plan in my head for Prison Yard for the past month to shake it up a bit.  So 12 PAX gave it a “try”.

Warm Up: Disclaimer on not really having a plan…but only kind of a plan. Mosey on the red trail to the twin peaks. 7 min jog. SSH 20 I/C
The Workout: 5 modes of conveyance up the first hill past the pond. At the top 2 squats with stack’ems (finished with 10 reps) each time to the top.   Mosey to the bottom do LBC until six is in. Rinse and repeat 5x.  Jog-up, Backwards jog, Bear crawl, Crab Walk (See Facebook post on whether is was ruled as cruel and unusual punishment) and Jailbreak.
Mary: 4 rounds.  Heel taps, half dead cockroach then with each leg up, butterfly, Freddie Mercury.

/in /by

I arrived quite a bit early for to put all the coupons out all over the walking trails.

FNG: Nope

Warm Up: We moseyed to the upper parking lot where we circled up. We did side-straddle hops, imperial walkers, hillbillies, merkins, frankenstiens.

Workout: We moseyed left out of the parking lot onto Shady Greens Drive. While running Breach spotted some fire hose. Continued to Brushy Meadows where we picked up a cinder block. Performed squats here. Turned left onto Brushy Meadows towards Hilltop Needmore Road. Made a left on the red trail where we did more exercises. Moseyed towards the PVA and we located a set of tractor weights. Each PAX alternated taking the coupons. We dropped all the goods off at my vehicle and Indian Run to the lower Red trail (Back 9). Once we made it all the way to the bottom we found a 16’ Treated 8×8.

The PAX paired up with 8×8 and did squats all the way up while the remainder did AB exercises. Once the exercises were completed IC to 15 they ran to the PAX with the 8×8. Rotated and rinsed and repeated 4 times from bottom to top. We did LBC, Merkins, Plank Jacks, Bearcrawls, Burpees and several more.
