PAX: Mile High, Geppetto, Stark, Bourbon, Huckleberry, Venom, Ringo, Beretta, Free Fall, Oil Change, Fossil, Spaulding, Jennay, Coconut, Nickel, Dutch, Peach, Solo
Workout: Cool as a Cucumber
No FNG’s so right into Mission and Principles:
F3 – Fitness, Fellowship, Faith
Mission – Plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.
The core principles of F3 are that it must:
Be free of charge
Be open to all men
Be held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
Be led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary. You versus you. Modify or stop an exercise if you need to. The most important thing is that nobody gets hurt.
End with a Circle of Trust
Credo: Leave No Man Behind But Leave No Man Where You Find Him
Warm up:
Ricky Bobby/Indigenous People’s Run/Indian run around the 0.7 mile gravel track.
The Thang:
Step Ups/Box Jumps on pavilion picnic tables during the song “So Much to Say” by Dave Matthews Band. Switch to dips during the chorus.
Circled up outside the picnic shelter for Side Straddle Hops to the song “Too Much” by DMB. Perform one squat for every “Suck it up” or “Too Much”.
Used the field inside the gravel track for Motor City Shuffle for the duration of the song “Detroit Rock City” by KISS. MCS is: lunge, lunge, merkin, plank jack, up to a frog hop and repeat.
Used the same location for Bearway to Heaven performed for the entire 8 minutes of “Stairway to Heaven” by Led Zeppelin. Bearway to Heaven was: Bear crawl suicides to each cone, perform a designated number of burpees then bear crawl back to the end line and then bear crawl to the next cone. 1st cone = 2 burpees, 2nd cone = 4 burpees, 3rd cone = 6 burpees, 4th cone = 8 burpees, 3rd cone, 2nd cone, 1st cone, etc.
Cool down:
“In The Plank Tonight” which is: hold plank for the entire song “In The Air Tonight” by Phil Collins.
Time was called and we circled up for:
Count-O-Rama – Eighteen!
Name-O-Rama
Sharing of the six – Ringo – Hasn’t been out in a while but is grateful for this group and his dad’s (Mile High) encouragement to get back out. Got his name because he likes to play the drums.

Ball of Man – Prayers for the military families who lost loved ones in Afghanistan.
Spreadsheets from the Gloom: Finally a cool morning! Great showing by the PAX. Good to see some Kotters out and some non regular Wednesday PAX.
It was and always is an honor to lead.
