    F3 (Fitness, Fellowship and Faith)

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

    Principles:
    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
    5. End with a Circle of Trust

    WARM UP:
    10 Motivators in Cadence

    THANG:
    Block/Weight Needed.
    PAX selects a numbered/colored poker chip that determines the WHAT:

    #1 (BLUE): Lunges with Block/Weight
    #2 (RED): Curls with Block/Weight
    #3 (WHITE): Merkins
    #4 (SILVER): Bent Over Rows with Block/Weight
    #5 (GOLD): Run

    The die is rolled to determine the number of REPS (die multiple by 5) with the
    exception of GOLD (#5): Run.

    There are 5 poker chips of each color/number.

    After all 20 poker chips called, we ended with a “Round-Robin” PAX choice/reps equal to roll of Die

    It was a great morning at the Nest, finally a relatively mild morning here as the temps were above freezing.

    * I should note that there were no Monkey Humpers or Burpees in my BD today. Maybe I'll find a couple new exercises to tire the men of.

    As always it was an honor to lead.
