The Workout:  Super lazy copy and paste from a workout Abe ran here last year.  Starting from the parking lot, made our way down the greenway, stopping at every other light pole for an exercise.  Upper, Lower, Core, repeato. 

For upper, we either did a merkin sampler (5 standard, 5 wide grip, 5 diamond), or Carolina Dry Docks. 

Lower we alternated between standard squats and jump squats (Squat down, touch the ground with both hands outside the feet, then spring up to a jump).

Core was only WWIIs.  I wanted to max these out for some reason.  Mission accomplished. 

Mary:  Not much time left, so we did box cutters and LBCs…I think that’s it.

Announcements:  Nope

Prayer:  My M in her job search

Death by Dips

YHC took an opportunity to jump back in the Q circle today aboard the Train! Have struggled for months with physical/health issues and I just got cleared a few days ago to work out again, so I figured…”why not?’

FNGs: Nada

Warm Up: Good Mornings, Fazio’s, Imperial Walkers, Frankenstein

The Workout: A short mosey to the hallway between parking deck and Main. 10/15/20 Dips, 10/15, 20 mountain Climbers IC. Then we moseyed on don to the parking garage for some DORA.

DORA consisted of 100 Hand-Release Shoulder Tap Merkins, 200 Monkey Humper IC, and 300 LBC. Partners ran the stairs up to do 10 more dips each pass.

Wall Work consisted of 2 rounds of People’s chair, while the end PAX bear crawled to the end of the line.

We took a quick mosey over to the small rock pile in the main lot. 4 PAX did AMRAP chest press, while the other 3 PAX rotated to complete 3-Man Rows (ie. 2 men stand as the base while the other lies down and does inverted row). 2 rounds of this and more on this later.

Mary: Supermans, shoulder roll stretches, Cobra Stretch.

Announcements: Like the exercise mentioned above, our job as the men of F3 is to pick eachother up when we are down. Many PAX during the last many months for YHC have reached out and have my sincere thanks as YHC has not been the best version of himself for months now. Our job in F3 is to pick up the six, never leave someone behind, and help eachother do things we don’t think we can do.

T-Claps (Recognition):

Prayer: Woody’s M has some promising job prospects on the line. Pumpkin Spice has kids with need for safe travel. 16-Bit, his family and kids with various things going on. YHC for continued clarity on health situation, good results, and strength to bite down and move forward.
