Intro – Welcome to F3 (Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith)

Mission: To plant, grow, and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership

5 Core Principles:
– Free of charge
– Open to all men
– Held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
– Are 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 found him

Warm-up:
Side Straddle Hops IC 20
Imperial Walkers IC 20
Windmills IC 20

Count-o-rama for partners and head up to "The Wall"

Study 1 : A) Balls to the Wall BTTW (Wall Walks)- Do 4
B)LBC's
while one partner does BTTW the other does LBC's, once the one guy does the 4 BTTW then switch until both members have done them 3 rounds. Can do Inch worm push ups if cannot perform wall walk.

Study 2 : A) Wall Sits
B) Merkins (15) and Carolina Dry Dock (10)
while one partner does study 2-B the other does wall sits, once the one guy does the 2-b then switch until both members have done them 3 rounds.

Study 3:
Go back do to Base Camp by the river and do 20 plank jack IC and run a loop around the Base Camp. 3 Rounds

Notice the repeatability and reliability, PAX were able to note the patterns and predict what was coming next. There was discussion on how we can apply this to our lives and marriages if in one.

Sometimes things go off track and or crash and we go back to STUDY 1 which we did!

Workout name: Leadership Ruck

The THANG: Ruck while discussing leadership topic – Lead from the front, and you'll never have to catch up.

*Rucked down 6th street, turned around on Findlay St, rucked back on 7th street*

1. In what ways are you leading your life from the front?
2. We can't predict what's next. How did you take a disruption in the past and turn it into an opportunity?
3. As you've stepped forward in leadership, how has it changed the game for the people around you?
