  • Young Bloods @ the Renny – from Catfish

    Nice cool morning at the Renny with 9 PAX. Started in front of the museum facing the bacin with Abe Vigodas, Grass Grabbers, SSH, and 8-counts.

    Moved to fountain for some right leg power-ups, dips, left leg power-ups, and derkins. Got on faces for Peter Parkers and J-Los.

    Grabbed a round of 11s with jump squats and bonnie blairs (2 is 1), going from the fountain and bunny hopping up the museum steps. Then grabbed some nickels and dimes – one-minute rounds of 5 burpees, 10 hand-release merkins, SSH to finish the minute).

    Moseyed to the field for burpee suicides. Did four tree lengths with 5 burpees at the starting line, then concluded with 10 burpees.

    Back of museum for 5 rounds of Sunday Mornings (5 overhead claps in people’s chair, 10 donkey kicks, one balls-to-wall press).

    CoT, coffeeteria @ PJs. Well done PAX, and welcome to our FNGs HokieMon and King Prawn.

  • Lake Pontchatrain like a champion

    It’s always nice to start the day off with a beatdown on the lakefront. So i issued the disclaimer & we mosey’d to the corner of canal / lakeshore drive to warm up

    WARM UP

    • Side straddle hop – 15 in cadence
    • Mountain climbers – 15 in cadence
    • Arm circles – 10 forward, 10 backwards
    • Concrete grabbers – 15 in cadence

    Next we mosey’d to the concrete planters along the lakefront and we did 11’s with derkins & dips. We started with one dip and 10 derkins, and then worked our way down to 10 dips and 1 derkin. Screw Top & Mahatma were leading the charge.

    Once the 11’s were completed, we mosey’d back to the corner of canal / lakeshore drive and did 2 laps of the following:

    • Run backwards up the concrete part of the levee
    • sprint across the center
    • run down the other side of the concrete levee
    • then when you reached the starting point, you would then do 25 LBC’s

    Next we mosey’d across the street by the lake. We partnered up and then we did 3 sets of sprints:

    • Sprint 1 – sprint to the first light pole and back (about 20 yards) while the other partner planks and waits. When partner one gets back, partner two then sprints to the first light pole & back while partner one planks and waits
    • Sprint 2 – sprint to the second light pole and back (about 40 yards) using same plank & wait technique as first sprint
    • Sprint 3 – sprint to the third light pole and back (about 60 yards) using the same plank and wait technique as the previous 2 sprints

    After the sprints were done, we mosey’d back to the flag for the count-off, name-o-rama, announcements, intentions & prayer. Thanks, as always, for the opportunity to lead, fellas. I enjoy it more each time!

  • NAME-O-RAMA

    NAME-O-RAMA

    YHC has been on the sidelines with a shoulder injury for the last couple of months, so he had plenty of time to plan for this particular workout at his beloved Popeyes. So as 10 men arrived in the sweaty, gloom it was time to roll at 5:30am. sharp. Wait….an FNG arrived at 5:31, so the Pax took off at 5:32.

    The Warm-Up

    YHC led the Pax on a short mosey to do a standard warm-up

    SSH -25

    Imperial Walkers – 20

    Shoulder Taps – 15 (should have been prepared for shoulder taps to aggravate my shoulder injury, but alas)

    Side lunges – 15 (someone needs to come up with a good F3 name for this exercise)

    Hillbillies – 20

    The Thang

    YHC saw another F3 Pax on Twitter spell their F3 names using an exercise to represent each letter. Since he had plenty of time between Qs, YHC made up his own version of the NAME-O-RAMA . Each Pax would do the exercises corresponding to the letters of his name. Once finished, the Pax with shorter names would find members with longer names and help them finish. All of the vowels were running exercises (in hindsight I should have come up with a better system to cut down on the amount of long runs. I hit 3.2 miles and I think other members ran longer than I did). It would have been nice to see the Reluctant Yankee here this morning.

    Check out the featured image of this post to see the whole alphabet and bring this to the other AOs in NOLA.

    YHC’s morning workout as an example:

    R- 20 Pull-ups E- Run to the F3 Flag and back V- 50 Big Boy Sit-ups S- 20 Burpees O – Run to the top of the bleachers X – 30 Box Jumps YHC then did another E – Run to the F3 Flag and back to hit Hokie Pokey’s last E.

    The runs were too long, so not every Pax finished and YHC committed one of the seven deadly sins of F3 by running the Pax back to the flag at 6:18am.

    The Close

    COUNTERAMA, NAME-O-RAMA, and the Pax named two FNGS. Chips’ 2.0 was named Frito Lays, and we also welcomed Voyeur into our ranks. Sweaty-Ball-O-Man lifted our prayers and thanksgiving to the King calling for mercy to our family and F3NOLA members in need and asking God to empower us to be the men He desires us to be.
