  • Iron PAX Challenge #3 – Uptown

    After much Mumblechatter as to what we would do at the Birdcage and who would Q it.  It was decided that we would do the Iron Pax Challenge and YHC would Q it.  What more could a Q ask for, than to have the entire beatdown laid out already for him.  I arrived early and met up with King Kong and we layed out the cones in Oak Alley 10 yards apart and moseyed back to meet the PAX at the flag.  A huge PAX of 30 had gathered and was ready to work.  Roots had volunteered to lead a more regular Birdcage routine should anyone opt out of taking the Iron Pax Challenge.  With that announcemnet and Disclaimer given we took off for a quick Mosey to the Fountain at the end of Oak Alley, the new home and hiding spot for the Uptown’s cinder block stash.  3 Pax opted to join Roots and they moseyed off to do their Thang.

    Each PAX collected their Cinder Block and circled up for a quick demo of the 4 exercise included in the challenge, and a quick explanation of how we would do the challenge by YHC.

    The Challenge:

    30 Minutes straight, No Rest, AMRAP

    15 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Handrelease Merkins, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    14 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Goblet Squats, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    13 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Leg raises, holding block in Press postion, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    12 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Handrelease Merkins, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    11 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Goblet Squats, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    10 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Leg raises, holding block in Press postion, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    9 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Handrelease Merkins, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    8 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Goblet Squats, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    7 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Leg raises, holding block in Press postion, 20 yds Broad jump(10 yards, out and back)

    …. you get the idea…

    Count up total reps of all exercises for total to be submitted.

    By the time we were done, recovered, put back the blocks and moseyed back we had reached 6:15 and called the workout.  Roots and his  crew moseyed up soon after.

    COT, Count0ff, Nameorama  1 FNG – From Philladelphia, worked on submarines –  Cheese Steak + Submarines = Tube Steak …Welcome!!

    IronHorse asked if we could add something to the COT that they do in Florida.  He brought his Flag from Florida and planted it next to ours, and as they do in his home PAX, we Pledged the Flag.  A great gesture that I loved and hope we incorporate into our COT’s.  Thanks for sharing that Ironhorse!!

    Prayers for Rudy’s Sister, Rev-Sox’s Dad and other intentions.  Thanks again for the opportunity to lead!  It was another great beatdown with great turn out, by great men.

    SYITG!!

  • Skinny – Da Block is HOT!!!

    Pre-Thang

    After the Week 2 – Iron 34Pax Challenge less than one week ago at the Birdcage, YHC was supposed to hide those cinder blocks with the help of the PAX.  However, Hawgcycle decided to use them for the same challenge at the Uptowner on Friday.  Therefore, the PAX loaded them back on Mahatma’s truck and off they went. YHC needed to find a way to bring those blocks back to Audubon Park.  Doing that during the day would be too suspicious.  Therefore, YHC had to incorporate another workout with the blocks so that the PAX could hide them after a morning beat down.  YHC needs to find a new home for those blocks soon.  They can’t be living in Mahatma’s truck forever.  Why not Skinny?  Because the Skinny usually involves more running around the park with exercises in between at some workout stations, YHC wanted to incorporate a cinder block workout focusing more on the legs, core, and cardio.  So Skinny…  28 PAX met up on a wet Monday morning.  At 5:30, YHC gave his standard disclaimer and off the PAX.

     

    Warm-ups

    Moseyed around the parking lot in front of the Audubon Clubhouse and back to the field next to the F3 flags and did the following in cadence:

    SSH x 20

    Windmills x 10

    Forward Arm Circles x 10

    Backward Arm Circles x 10

    Hill Billies x 20

    Plank Jacks x 20

    Overhand Claps x 10

     

    Da Block is Hot

    Grabbed the hot blocks off Mahatma’s truck and moseyed to the Band Stand.  Circled up and did the following exercises in cadence:

    Chest Presses x 20

    Leg Raises with Block in arms extended Chest Press position x 10

    Slow Goblet Squats with Block x 10

    Walking to the first light post at the Oak Alley, YHC gave instructions on a modified BLIMPS workout with the blocks.  The PAX was holding on to his block while he was running between the light posts for the entire BLIMPS.  OYO – At the first light post, 5 Burpees with a thruster over the head (5 man makers).  Ran to the 2nd light post and performed 10 Lunges on each leg while holding onto the block.  Ran to the 3rd post and properly executed 15 Imperial Walkers on each leg while holding onto the block.  Moseyed to the 4th post – 20 Merkins.  To the 5th post…. 25 Chest Presses with the block.  To the last light post… 30 Squats while holding onto the block.

     

    Da Block is Hot..Hot

    Before YHC could give instructions for the next exercise, Reluctant Yankee had decided to modify his workout by “accidentally” dropping his block and breaking it in half.  That’s one way to modify….  The PAX reused the Oak Alley for the following exercises OYO.  The PAX left his block by the first light post then…

    1 – Ran to the 2nd light post and back and performed 30 Block Jump Overs, Ran to the 3rd post and back to the 1st post…. 20 Block Jump Overs, Ran to the 4th post and back to the 1st post… 10 Block Jump Overs

    2 – Ran to the 2nd light post and back and performed 30 Squats with the block, Ran to the 3rd post and back to the 1st post… 20 Squats with the block, Ran to the 4th post and back to the first post… 10 Squats with the block

    3 – Ran to the 2nd light post and back… 30 Leg Raises with block in arms extended chest press position.  Ran to the 3rd post and back to the 1st post… 20 Leg Raises in the same position.  Ran to the 4th post and back to the 1st post… 10 Leg Raises in the same position.

     

    Da Block is Hot….Hot..Hot

    Time to hide those cinder blocks, but YHC couldn’t make it that easy.  YHC had asked Mahatma to Q the group in 2 lines and led the group by shouting “overhead, right shoulder (not resting on the shoulder), left shoulder” as the group dodging cars on Magazine Street toward the fountain.  YHC could only imagine what the drivers were thinking witnessing 28 guys with cinder blocks over their heads at 6:12 a.m. crossing Magazine Street.  Not weird at all.  Very shortly, the PAX made it to the fountain and hid them by the bushes.  The PAX then moseyed back to the flag for the COT at 6:16 a.m.

  • Birdcage – Week 2 – The Iron 34PAX Challenge

    Pre-Thang

    After YHC’s first visit at Okwata’s H4 Challenge, YHC discussed with Tool and Mahatma-Ice about the possibility of bringing a Rock City type of workout to Birdcage with cinder blocks.  Of course… with their support, YHC was able to get the goods (28 blocks at 28 lbs and 4 blocks at 19 lbs) from Tool and loaded them up onto Mahatma’s truck.

    Meanwhile, on Sunday, Reluctant Yankee sent out Week 2 IronPax Challenge, which incorporates exercises with cinder blocks.  What are the chances??? With many personal texts and mumblechatter convincing the Q to facilitate the challenge (a lot of passive aggressiveness), YHC finally decided to forgo his planned Q with the blocks and went with the challenge.

     

    The Challenge

    Thanks for many PAX help at 5 a.m. to mark the 25 yard distance and unloading all 32 blocks onto the field, YHC was able to start the disclaimer on time at 5:30 a.m. and off we go…. Unfortunately, YHC didn’t get enough blocks for the challenge.  YHC underestimated his popularity… didn’t expect to see 34 PAX and thought 32 blocks were more than enough.

    Actual Week 2 Iron Pax Challenge – accumulated Rep scoring

    4 sets x 8 minutes – perform as many reps as possible in 8 minutes.  After 25 reps, must run 25 yards out and back.  Rinse and repeat until 8 minutes is up.  Rest 2 minutes between sets.

    Set 1 – Thrusters with cinder block

    Set 2 – Curls with cinder block

    Set 3 – KB Swings with cinder block

    Set 4 – ManMaker with cinder block

    Total Score = Set 1 Reps + Set 2 Reps + Set 3 Reps + Set 4 Reps

     

    COT

    Count-O-Rama 34 PAX, Name-O-Rama with one FNG & one PAX from Tallahassee, announcements, intentions.  A record day at Birdcage with 34 PAX participating a heck of the challenge.  Welcome Iron Horse (Tallahassee) and Sinner Bloq$ (FNG) because he’s a pastor working out with cinder blocks.  How fitting???

     

    NMM

    T-Claps to everyone making the challenge possible at Birdcage.  Tool – supplying the blocks.  Mahatma-Ice – picking up the blocks with his truck.  Yankee – measuring the 25 yard distance at 5 a.m.  Hawgcycle, Candy Land, Gabrielle, Medulla, Angie’s List, Willie – help unloading off the truck to the field in the Gloom.

    Thank You all again for the opportunity to facilitate the challenge.  SYITG

    King Kong

     

    Standings – YHC didn’t get everyone’s reps because some modified the challenge, 4 PAX were using the 19 lbs blocks instead of the 28 lbs, or YHC just didn’t do a good job collecting everyone’s score.  Whatever the reason, this is the list:

    Rev-It – 325

    Seaman -625

    I Love You Man – 425

    Douille – 375 (left early)

    Iron Horse – 609

    Angie’s List – 502

    Bartman – 500

    Gabrielle – 583

    Willie – 558

    Rev Sox – 468

    Tinkles – 489

    Medulla – 455

    Quarter Pipe – 456

    Mahatma-Ice – 805

    Saban – 655

    Sinner Bloq$ (FNG) – 655

    Peaches – 475

    Hawgcycle – 592

    Reluctant Yankee – 445

    El Wire – 505

    Mariah – 495

    Chiquita – 415

    Candy Land – 325

  • IronPax Challenge Round 1 at Wolfpack Mtn

    20 PAX posted for a introduction to the IronPax Challenge.  I tried to headlock my cousin –Voodoo – who is in town for the challenge and he fartsacked today – slacker.

    I got to the AO early to measure the horse shoe to make sure we could do it.

    We spent 8 minutes reviewing correct form for the challenge.

    The Challenge:

    50 Airsquats, 40 BigBoi Situps, 30 Merkins, 20 Bonnie Clairs or Sister Mary Katherines and finally 10 Burpees

    Seal it with a .25 lap.  2 laps around the Loyola Horseshoe.

    Do that 4 times!  ***Sorry to the PAX for the confusion here.  I blew it and originally thought it was one lap but after the first PAX finished in 5.5 min I knew we were off and I spent about 90 seconds while the PAX were mid-beatdown trying to figure out the exact number.

    Thanks for being good sports and trying to tackle this challenge.

    Standings:

    El Wire 27:23, Peppa 27:45, Pony Boy 28:15, GSpot 28:45, Flaming Lips 30:18, Bad Moon 30:45, Roots 31:36, Colonel Mustard 32:01, Bartman 32:07, REV-It 32:09, Quarterpipe 32:20, Saban 32:33, Chiquita 32:45, Angie’s List 33:54, Reluctant Yankee 34:12, Dean Wormer 34:29, Beiber 34:40, and KingKong 36:50  Mariah and Betty Crocker

    I am absolutely going to bring this back in about a month. So we can A.) do it better bc we know what it is and B.)  see if we can get any improvement

    SEE YOU IN THE GLOOM!

  • Stepping Up

    Does a back blast need to be timely? Just needs to prove we did something.

    In every circle we talk about getting better, pushing ourselves and each other to get better. To be better husbands, fathers, and leaders. I hear it all the time. It’s great, Leadership is aspirational! But it also requires action towards that end. Without action is is just a platitude.

    I’m a Michigan man and over the last week I’ve been bothered by the OSU situation. The dust has yet to settle and this is probably today’s cherry on our national discourse. But I’m disappointed in the failure of leadership to hold to a principle and make something happen. When I look at the pax of F3 I see great things, and I have renewed hope.

    Yankee was being a little self critical about the long email he sent out the night before. Long or short I love the emails. F3 just doesn’t happen, guys step up and make things happens quietly and in the greatest of ways. Every AO has a guy keeping the schedule going, they just do it and don’t make a big deal about. In the last email Yankee reiterated what I have been hearing around the flag for a few weeks now. If people want a new AO, step up, dedicate yourself to Qing it and it will happen. Step up and take action. Enough of the pontification…

    Started with standard circle, with arm circles reverse and forward, did some peter parkers, burpees and moseyed to the mountain.

    Started on level 2, on that gloomy muggy day. We lunged up the inclines, dashed (faster than a mosey slower than a sprint) to the turn where we did 15 Mericans. Rinse and repeat all the way to the top.

    At the top we did BLIMPS but with a 1 level down lap in between each exercise.

    Down the chute to the benches for some dips, decline Mericans, and some more dips.

    Mosey over to the softest grass for some call out Mary (Russian Twist, Hello Dollys, Pickle Pounders, and something else to round out the time.

    Finished at the flag on time with a sweaty ball of man.

  • 8118

    So many directions that a Q can take that sometimes it’s hard to pick just one.  With some late night pondering though I couldn’t pass up the opportunity of 8118.  Has there ever been a palindromic beatdown in the history of F3?  Does the Pax know what a palindrome is?  Does the QIC know that numbers really aren’t palindromes?  Is drinking a Rockstar and going for a 7 mile run at 10pm a good idea?  Is drinking a Rockstar and…… ever a good idea?  Having exhausted myself I knew I needed a workout where the Pax could just do their thing.

    Mosey over to the zoo parking lot for a warm up:

    • SSH IC x 30
    • Hillbilly IC x 30 (testing the ability of the assembled hillbilly’s to count to 30)
    • Mountain Climbers x 30

    Mosey to the Audubon statue for some stretching and a little Q&A.  As Rudy was not with us I had to scan the crowd to find the next most likely PAX to appear on Jeopardy and my eyes settled on JV.  ‘What is a palindrome?’ Some under the breath musings about Elba and Canals hinted at the answer.  ‘Why does that matter today?’ Nip Tuck nailed it, ‘8118’.

    The Thang:

    • A figure of 8 run around the medians
    • 8 Merkins at the bottom and top of the 8
    • 1 burpee every time at the crossover
    • Run forwards from bottom to top of the 8
    • Run backwards from the top to the bottom of the 8
    • Run 8 laps

    Not much was said from this point on.  Perhaps some disbelief or just boredom.  There wasn’t an official time goal but we did run out of time with most still on the course.  Congrats to Beiber, Pony Boy, Mahatma, El Wire, G Spot, Peppa, Swamp Cock plus maybe others who finished the 8 laps.

    Mosey back to the flag.  Count off and namorama.  Intentions for Rudy’s sister and a couple of Roots’ friends who are ill.  An official uptown H8 may be something to consider.

     

  • Dirty MacDulla Mountain

    Full of nerves for my VQ, I woke up before my alarm even went off and decided to head out for the park.  I was the first one there beside one unfamiliar face in a F3 shirt wandering around the park entrance.  I quickly learned he was Snowflake from F3 Greensboro, NC and was looking for the AO.  FYI they have 30 workouts per week in Greensboro.  The PAX started to role in and we quickly determined we had 3 FNG’s today, one EH’d by Triple-Shift and the other by YHC, and a third had a shady story that he had been to F3 on the Northsore one time before, a long time ago, but did not remember his F3 name…Sure!  Disclaimer was given and we were off.

    Mosey towards Walnut St. Circle up at corner of park for quick warm up.

    SSH x20, Arm Circ. Fwd/Bwd x20 each, Hillbillies x20

    Short Mosey to the Neutral Ground, as we call it Uptown.

    THANG 1:  F3 NOLA Uptown Shameless Self Promotion – Medulla Style

    On St. Charles Neutral Ground – Run down neutral ground with B.L.I.M.P.S. workout at each intersection – Medulla Style – Being that YHC is usually the SIX of this speedy, run loving PAX, this would come to be the theme of this workout.  Count was modified: 6-Burpees, 12-Lunges, 18-Imperial Walkers 24-Merkins, 30-Plank Jacks, 36-Squats

    20 Count by Da Parish

    NMM

    Almost 6 months to the day was my first F3 workout.  I was pretty close to the heaviest I had ever been in my life, had just been to a shitty “healthy patient” doctor visit where I was told I was fat, and my BP was really high.   I knew I had to do something to change this downward trend.   My first workout was a WPM, that followed a HNJ Men’s Club Board meeting the night before, where Angies List put on the hard EH.   Earily similar for my VQ, another WPM following a HNJ Men’s Club Board meeting.  Huge difference, about 30 lbs lighter, much healthier, BP is back to normal, and I wasn’t already winded after the 20 SSH in warm-up.  I can’t thank all you guys enough for motivating me everyday to get out there and grind it out in the gloom.   I know I could not have done this on my own.  I still modify but I’m not ALWAYS the SIX anymore!

    Welcome back Three-Way (Kotter)  Glad to have you back after a month away this summer.  Hope to see you out there more often.

    Glad to have have Snowflake from F3 Greensboro, NC join us today.  Come back anytime!

    Angies List – Posted his F3 workout from the beach in Cozumel…I hope you didn’t re-injure your Labia!

    Welcome to our 3 FNG’s

    Dean Wormer – He is the Dean of Students at Holy Name – Dean’s name from Animal House

    Amnesia – PAX who couldn’t remember his Northshore name – Northshore – help us figure out who this guy is.  All I can remember is he was like 28 and had big sideburns.

    Flying J – He was wearing a Bucky’s Truck Stop shirt.

    Some munblechatter that these were probably not the greatest names, but when pressed to make final decisions YHC’s brain was still a bit oxygen deprived and just wanted to finish this up.

    Thank you all again for the opportunity to lead, it was awesome!

    SYITG!

  • Fore!

    As my fancy fitness tracking watch, I mean 15 year old Casio G-Shock, ticked near 5:30 the anticipation became palatable. The First Annual Officially Unofficial F3Nola Blimp Golf Tournament (sponsored by John Daly’s Grip It & Sip It) was almost underway.

    First we moseyed a bit to that Greek pavilion looking thing for some warm-up:

    Side Straddle Hops X 34
    Arm Circles X 15
    Reverse Arm Circles X 15
    Peter Parkers X 15
    Mountain Climbers X 15
    Parker Peters X 15

    Next we moseyed to the links for the main event. They say Blimp Golf predates its Scottish counterpart, but it fell out of popularity due to it being completely pointless. The rules are stupid and convoluted, you start at the first hole and do one set of BLIMPS with the par of the hole as the reps. Then you do 34 Merkins (because it’s my birthday and I like them). The first person to finish wins that hole and then you mosey to the next hole and repeat with hole number as the sets and the par as the reps.

    The first hole started out a little rough, mostly due to my poor explanation. After that we started cruising. Unfortunately I forgot to keep track of who won each hole, so I can’t give out the grand prize. I promise to do better next year. Our sponsor was kind enough to provide a delicious Grip It & Sip It Hard Tea for each hole winner though. Let me know in the comments if you won a hole and I will make sure you get one.

    After 5 holes we decided that the we were golfed out for the day and we moseyed to the benches:

    Dips X 15
    Right Leg Step-ups X 15
    Dips X 15
    Left Leg Step-ups X 15
    Derkins X 20

    According the Casio we had way more time left than I thought. The PAX recommended that we do some AB workouts. We headed back to the pavilion for some Ring of Fire:

    Nolan Ryans
    Real Freddy Mercurys
    Lots of other AB stuff

    Back to the flag for Count-Off, Name-O-Rama, Announcements, Intentions and Prayer.

    Big thanks to everyone for coming to my VQ and helping me out with my mistiming.

  • And we are done….just kidding, not really.

    So after a last minute exit from Chowdah for his VQ, YHC decided to step up and take the Q.  After planting the shovel flag in what was unusually hard dirt and the usual disclaimer, we were off.

    Mosey to the Kick-Ball Field in front of Audubon Zoo for Warm-Up:

    • Imperial Walkers X 20
    • Arm Circles Forward X15
    • Arm Circles Reverse X15
    • Hillibillies X20

    Next, short mosey to Soccer Field for:

    • 4 Corners – B.O.M.B.S – Modified (You’ll figure out why shortly)
      • First Corner – 5 Burpees
        • Defensive Drills R/L to
      • Second Corner – 10 OH Presses
        • Crab Walk to
      • Third Corner – for Modification #1 – 15 Monkey Humpers
        • Backward Run to
      • Fourth Corner – 20 Big Boy Sit Ups/Rower Sit Ups (PAX choice)
        • Bear Crawl
      • Back to First Corner for Modification #2 – 25 Side-Plank Leg Raises split between right and left sides

    This was so fun, Rinse and Repeat!

    Mosey to Shelter for:

    • The Cooper
      • 10 Burpees
      • 10 Merkins
      • 10 Squats
      • Run 1 lap from shelter to track and back (approx. 400M)
      • Decrease by 1 until done

    Now you know why YHC decided to modify the merkins and squats out of the B.O.M.B.S.  You’re welcome PAX!

    Now the above routine seems pretty straightforward and not that difficult.  Apparently not with 90 degree heat and what seemed like 110% humidity.  The Cooper should be renamed the Mumblechatter-Killer because it was pretty quiet amongst the PAX once we really got going.

    As we continued in our endeavor to get to the end of this never-ending routine, YHC realized not all the PAX would have time to complete.  So, modify!  YHC decided to announce that we would call it when the PAX leaders (I’m looking at you Douille, El Wire, Mariah and a few others) finished all their rounds.  Apparently, those same leaders misheard me and thought YHC said we would finish when they completed their CURRENT round.  You can imagine my amazement when I pulled into the shelter with a group of PAX waiting for YHC for the next THANG.  Of course, I quickly explained that we still had several minutes to go and let’s get to it.  Que collective groan.  Off we went for more rounds!  Lucky for the PAX we did run out of time so YHC called it.  That Cooper was something else.

    Mosey back to the Flag for Count-Off, Name-o-rama, Announcements, Intentions and Prayer.  Special thanks to all who attended and helped put on the F2 Picnic on Saturday.  A great F2 event.

    Thanks PAX for letting me lead!  What a great group of #HIM.
