Discussion:
Review and discuss the LDP topic of the week Q3.4 Vision with some thought provoking questions.

Question # 1
Where in your life are immediate demands regularly pulling you away from the future you say you want—and what would it cost to stop allowing that?

Question # 2
In what ways does your faith actively shape your long‑term decisions, not just your private beliefs? Where might your vision look the same with or without faith?

Question # 3
Which parts of your life vision were intentionally chosen—and which were unconsciously inherited from culture, upbringing, or organizational momentum?

Question # 4
If a younger person were patterning their life after yours right now, what would you hope they copy—and what would quietly concern you?

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:
10 Side Straddle Hops
10 Chain Breakers

Count-o-rama for groups

Workout Flow:
3 Stations – Top of Wall (Station 1), Middle of Stairs (Station 2), Bottom Landing (Station 3)
Everyone starts together by going up stairs.
Group 1 is dropped off at Station 1, next Group 2 at Station 2, and finally Group 3 at Station 3.
Then Group 4 releases Group 1 from Station 1 and takes their spot. Group 1 releases Group 2, Group 2 releases 3, 3 releases 4, and repeat until 2 full circuits are completed. (There is always a group at each station and always a group running.)

Exercise Details:
Station 1: Circuit 1 -> Shoulder Tap Merkins (~50 reps); Circuit 2 -> Box Jumps (~40 reps)
Station 2: Circuit 1 -> Wall Sits (~150 sec); Circuit 2 -> Mountain Climbers (~100 reps, 4 is 1)
Station 3: Circuit 1 -> Step ups (~50 reps); Circuit 2 -> Dips (~60 reps)

Lessons Learned:
– Ran over, needed to end workout by 6:05.
– Do not plan this sequence of moves again…
Step ups -> Run stairs -> Box jumps -> Run ramp -> Mountain Climbers

Mission, Core principles

Warm Up:

In Cadence, SSHs, Windmills, Chain Breakers

The Thang:

Norwegian 4X4. Goal is to maximize heartrate to 85-90% of max during work and then to rest. 4 minutes of work, 3 minutes rest, repeat.

Cones set up about 30 yards apart. First and third sets were to run down and back between the cones. Second and fourth sets were kettle bell swings. When 4 minutes of work was complete, walk a lap around the island.

Once the 4 sets were over we had some time, so we stretched a little, and did cadence merkins.

It was 38 and rainy, miserable weather, but great start to the day.
