Workout: Back to School

No FNG’s so right into Mission and Principles:

F3 – Fitness, Fellowship, Faith
The Mission of F3 is to 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.
End with a Circle of Trust
Credo: Leave no man behind but leave no man where you find him.
Disclaimer: You versus you. Modify or stop an exercise if you need to. The most important thing is that nobody gets hurt.

Warm up: Run up the drive towards Eckel Junction Rd and back into the Ft Meigs Elementary parking lot to the portable classrooms

The Thang:
Perform 20 reps of an exercise at portables, run to the other end, perform 20 reps of a different exercise. Nine minute sets. Whistle every three minutes = five burpees.
Round One: Merkins and BBSU’s
Round Two: Squats and American Hammers
Round Three (six minutes): Flutter Kicks and Plank Jack Shoulder Taps

Final three minutes of round Three: Wall sits

Time was called.

COT:

Count o Rama – 11
Name o Rama

The Six – Echo – EH’d by Reload, his wife and Footloose. Even though he has aches and pains getting up and working out beats laying in bed! Got his name from having to get an echocardiogram because of chest pains.

Announcements: Three spots left for the RRC. 24hrs of F3 end of the month.

BOM w/prayer: Prayers for Echo’s father who is having surgery today.

Spreadsheets from the Gloom: low 70’s and muggy. TClaps to Guardian for the assist on the wall sit idea. “Back to (the) School:” LOL.

Playlist included songs from: The Ramones, Beastie Boys, Pink Floyd, Paul Simon, Motley Crue, Steely Dan, J Geils Band, Gym Class Heroes
