The Ground Pounder 2/14/2026

 thank you @Gump for getting me set up with a login

2/14/2026. The Ground Pounder – two of my Slack friends ( @Gump , @Socrates) joined me this morning at The Ground Pounder. They were not Slackers facing the morning cold, but they are High Impact Men, out working their minds, body’s and spirits.

We started with morning stretches – Sir Fazio, side straddle hops, Willy Mayes Hayes, good mornings, body squats, overhead arm stretches and seal claps. Gingerly mosey (no running here) to the rock pile with curls, overhead tri’s, rows, overhead press, and our namesake Ground Paounder -repeat. Small rocks with titillas, Arnold’s, and kickbacks – repeat. Short walk to the wall for Papal chair, and heal raises – repeat

Mary:  No playing around at the playground – with step ups, dips and Merkins. Finished with a round of Mary – low slow flutter ( Q favorite), hello dolly, heal taps and American hammers. Ran out of time for plank.

Prayers:  Asked for our Lord to hear prayers of F3 Nation and to guide us going forward today -followed by a second F with coffee fellowship at Fables coffee in HS.

Missing PAX:  We missed @Ausfart @Lube @Dauber, @Pole Vault, @Cancun, @stubbs, and always looking for @Forceps – hope to see more of you out next week

F3:  more thank a workout!
