Cardio is overrated....



Date: Wed, Oct 6, 2021

AO: The Jimmy

QiC: Shoota

PAX: Achilles, CrawDaddy, Braddock, Maytag, Beans, Lump, Licker, Dr. Claw, HackFace, Scud Row, Shrimp, Noodle, Whoopi and Mogul.


Weather: Slight sprinkle to begin, but that gave up a few minutes in.


Waiver given & we welcomed back the great Dr. Claw! It's been quite some time since he joined us and we were grateful to have him back. Told everyone in advance I sprained my ankle, I tried to give up the Q on slack but nobody took it, so expect no running. Scud showed up so I know he was on slack and saw it. Nobody enjoys a running-less Q like that guy.


WoR - Alot of SSHs, BACs, Back BACs, overhead claps, WMH and Good Mornings. We had a proper warmup this morning. Actually an entire minute of Good mornings were had. Those who skipped really missed out. Extra slow ass merkins - quite a few, maybe 15? Can't recall as I was too busy enjoying the groveling as I passed 10.


Thang 1 - stay in the circle and enjoy a burpee apocalypse.


Mosey very slowly over to the basketball court, I have a new idea to try out.


Thang 2 - "Rochamburpees". That's right - old school paper, rock, scissors competition. Pax pair up for the grand competition. Both pax get in low plank, facing one another. They play paper, rock, scissors in the low plank position - best of three. The loser does 10 burpees and the winner can choose what exercise he does. I saw merkins, SSHs, situps, good mornings, squats and other varieties going down by the victors, while the losers burpee'd. I think Scud and Dr Claw each did burpees no matter what happened. That's impressive! Each pairing played 10 rounds, so 100 burpees were completed. Licker concluded that Scissors suck, Scud concluded this may have been worse than running, and Lump realized if he just adamantly said "I won" at the conclusion of each round that Braddock might just fall for it even if he lost.


Mosey to the playground, or walk. I mean it's only 40 yards or so.


Thang 3 - Lazy Dora with same partner

Pair complete:

100 pullups while partner low planks - switch every 10 reps

200 LBCs while partner flutter kicks - switch every 20 reps

300 squats while partner Spicoli's - switch every 30 reps


COT - Praises for Bean's wife who successfully negotiated her way into a new career path that is going to really help them.


Announcements - Biscuit Run in March - let Braddock know if you're interested. Plenty of time to get prepared for it!


Prayer Requests - Shoota's mom started chemotherapy on Monday. Prayers for her recovery and overall health.


Moleskin: Great work everyone. Way to accelerate. It was great seeing Dr. Claw back in the gloom. He's looking great and will once again be an amazing addition to our group. We told the story of the first time he came to F3, it has rained about 3 inches and was pouring down rain. I mean, you literally couldn't see 10 feet in front of you. Yet, he posted for the very first time and battled through it. Really great to see him again.
