If It Burns For 7 Years… Should You See a Doctor?

/in /by

FNGs: Friendly, not new

Warm Up: SSH, Daisy Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Willy Mays Haze 

The Workout: 

  • Running lap around the outside of the field – talk about how Pikachu are electric Pokemon but for some reason are OK swimming and surfing.  Not fire Pokemon though, swimming is a no go.
  • Grab Blocks and head to the soccer field.  1st, take a walking lap around the field with your block.
  • Head into the gate between both fields, drop your block for 5 burpees.  Talk about Pikachu’s Pickle.
  • Pick up blocks and follow the outside line of the field until you reach a corner.  Uneven burpees on the block, 3 each side.
  • Farmer carry the block to the next corner, switching hands half-way.  Talk about Pikachu’s Eggplant.
  • Partner up and set both blocks shoulder-width apart.  Partner 1 completes negative Merkins AMRAP while Partner 2 runs the length of both field end-zones and back.  Switch and complete 2x.
  • Carry blocks to next corner.  Talk about how Gizmo was named after Pikachu’s little soldier.  Also reflect on how much Downrange and Cancun love sausage.
  • 15x Skull Crushers
  • Carry blocks overhead to half-field, recover, carry blocks to the next corner.  Not sure what we talked about here….
  • Run a victory lap around the field.
  • Get back to last corner and partner up for Explosive Merkins.  Setup blocks accordingly.  Partner 1 does Merkins AMRAP, Partner 2 runs one of the two soccer end-zones.  Each completes 1x
  • Go to soccer field endzone and sprint to opposite endzone 1x.  Return mozy.
  • Return Blocks to their home and head to Mary

6 years is a long time but not that long

/in /by

So great to have 29 in the gloom this morning to help me celebrate 6 years with F3.  This group has changed my life and I hope to continue paying that forward.  It’s a whole lot more than a workout!!!

FNGs: none

Warm Up: SSH, Windmill, Imperial Walkers, Mosey, Good Morning, Sir Fazio Arm Circles, Mosey

The Workout:  Cones were set up about 10 yards apart.  PAX performed the following exercises: 5 burpees, 10 lunges, 15 imperial walkers, 20 merkins, 25 plank jacks and 30 squats.  We went through the circuit 4 times traveling by bear crawl, lunge walk, broad jump and bunny hop.  Between sets mosey to the disc golf tee box and perform ab exercises to wait on the 6.

Toughest Mile Challenge

/in /by

15 PAX showed to test their strength around the track 4 times. This was brutal but we all pushed ourselves and got stronger.

We started at 0515 with a few warm up exercises. Then it was on like Donkey Kong.

Lap 1 – broad jump burpee
Lap 2 – lunge walk
Lap 3 – bear crawl
Lap 4 – run

Most guys finished up right around the hour mark. We had 3 ruckers join for COT. Maybe we can do this again to see how guys improve. Or not!

COT then prayer.

Awesome job guys. Thanks for joining me in another stupid idea.

BS Out!

Paradise with a UTI

Wet ‘n Wild (Turkey) at Paradise City

/in /by

FNGs: I think they were scared of the thunderstorms like Downrange

Warm Up: Good Mornings, Willie Mays Haze, Daisy Pickers, Lap, SSH

The Workout:

Since I was on Q, the crazy rain, some previous day shenanigans, and the upcoming Murph the numbers at Paradise were a little lower than I’d hoped (I had a sweet playlist and everything).  The gameplan was to split into teams and have a little race of sorts.  Since we were 3… this is what we did instead.

10 Cards, A-10 were shuffled and placed on the wet pavement.  In an accountability group of 3 we used the 10 cards to randomize the following list of workouts and share the work.

  1. [Ace] Gradual hill “Ting Ramp” runs (4 times, 3 times, 2 times)
  2. Squats x50 ea
  3. Benches (box jump, step up squat, step ups) x10 reps
  4. Sea Turtles (30 ea, 20, 15)
  5. Squats x25 ea
  6. Sea Turtles (30 ea, 20, 15)
  7. Run up steep “Ting Ramp” hill (4 times, 3 times, 2 times)
  8. Squats x25 ea
  9. Star Jumps x200 group total
  10. Benches (box jump, step up squat, step ups) x10 reps

Mary:  We ran a lap around Paradise to make sure we hit the 3 mile minimum

Announcements:  Murph and more to be reviewed at the Murph or on Slack.  Run the Quay Tent on June 1 and SW Family BBQ June 9th at 2p

T-Claps (Recognition):  Pikachu for commuting to Paradise in the rain from Womble for EC.  Pikachu and Turkey for picking up the 6, who remained in the fartsack when they stopped by “on their way” to Womble for the Murph.

Prayer:  Lipstick and fam, Downrange (of course), my cousin Caroline and her family displaced by a tornado that struck their house, Pikachu’s M

A Roll of the Dice

/in /by

FNGs: none

Warm Up: SSH, Good Mornings, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Sir Fazio Arm Circles, Seal Claps, Overhead Claps, Willie Mayes Hayes

The Workout: Today we followed the dice. Always a fun time (in my opinion at least) because you get to go on a field trip and you never know what you’ll get. Somehow, bear crawls, balls to the wall and absolutions showed up on the dice as well. Weird. About 1.75 miles and a bunch of merkins, side stradle hops and lunges in between.

Mary: LBCs, WWIIs, Homer-to-Marge, Poop Eaters, a bit of stretching

Announcements: Beer ruck on Saturday starting at 12, Spring Classic on Saturday (if you’re not running, help at an aid station)

T-Claps: Slide Rule and Wiggly coming back out to the gloom. Missed ya fellas.

Prayer: Unspoken, Banana Seat’s family
