Workout: Rump Inflation At Thee Pump Station

FNG’s: N/A

Mission and Principles:
F3: Fitness, Fellowship, Faith
Mission: 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 is always:
1. Free of charge
2. Open to all men
3. Held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
4. 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.
5. Ends with a Circle of Trust
Credo: Leave no man behind but leave no man where you find him

Ball of Man

Spreadsheets from the Gloom: 33 and rain, but the ice held off. This was another beatdown built around my injured shoulder, and it was simple, but brutal. A lot of complaints were made. Seems as though many PAX were unaware of the difficulty of lunge walking up hill with a ruck on.

This was one for the butts, and the playlist kept that in mind.

“Da Butt” – E.U.
“Brick House” – Commodores
“More Bounce To The Ounce” – Zapp
“(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty” – KC & The Sunshine Band
“Booty City” – Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears
“Rumpofsteelskin” – Parliament
“Shake Your Rump To The Funk” – The Bar-Kays
“Rump Shaker” – Wreckx-N-Effect
“Shake Your Rump” – Beastie Boys

It was a pleasure to lead this one. And thanks for the complaints!
