Another day in paradise at Grandma’s House.  The Tuesday beatdown that started it all here on the Northshore has had relatively low turnout lately, but the company couldn’t be better.  Grandmother-regulars Chewy and Shooter both posted and reminded YHC of the high quality of men F3 seems to attract.  We’re all works-in-progress, but these guys seem to be a bit ahead of the curve in terms of their attitude, priorities in life, and the standards they set for themselves and others.  Getting up early with guys like Shooter and Chewy is one of best things about F3. (Quick aside, YHC has not seen the movie that loosely inspired this post’s title and so can neither endorse nor dismiss it. We’ll need Choppa to come back from his extended leave and give us a full breakdown and analysis.)

Alright, let’s get to it before Einstein cranks out his backblast and makes my tardiness even more apparent (couldn’t beat Pik though, that man is too quick!).

Warmorama: Good Mornings, Abe Vigodas, Toe Touches, IW’s, SSH, Butt Kicks, all at or around 20x IC.

The Thang:
Zoolander’s challenge seems to have single-handedly resuscitated ISI and, since the 1st, we’ve all become a bunch of running fools.  So first thing up was a run to the tunnel and back, rounding the block to make it an even 2 miles.

Next up (and last up), was a routine, running to the following stations:

  • Up to the top of the stairs for 10x merkins
  • Down and over to the benches for step ups with knee raises 10x (5 ea. leg)
  • Run the corridor to the end for Mountain Climbers 10x IC
  • Over and up to the stage for Plank Jacks 10x IC
  • Hop down and to the wooden platform for LBC’s 10x IC

Then back to the start, add 2x to each exercise.  Again and again until time expired.

COT and Chewy prayed us out.  Thanks guys for the steady inspiration – it’s always an honor to be in your ranks!
