  • Oh look, here is a new spot – from Hokie

    On Saturday night, YHC saw no one had signed up to Q Renaissance, so I signed up and designed a plan for or workout.

    Sunday I woke up with a sore back and went ah heck, I need to come up with a new plan to accommodate and pull this off…. or modify greatly if no one shows up 😉

    As 0630 arrived, there were 5 other Pax present so on with a new plan we went…

    Warm-o-rama

    Facing the bacon

    20 side straddle hops,
    20 imperial walkers,
    10 Slow Vigodas
    10 Concrete Grabbers

    THE THANG –
    Mosey with frisbee to Children’s Museum. each time frisbee hits ground, 5 Hindu Merkins.
    Arrival at Children’s museum and we moseyed up ramp to porch area for

    20 Incline Merkins on Adirondack chairs
    20 Air Drama (squat to calf raise)
    20 Flutter Kicks

    Next evolution, we ran backwards, the length of side of Children’s Museum along pond side
    20 Burpees
    20 Low slow Squats
    20 Freddy Mercuries

    We partnered up and wheel barreled the short distance along the back
    Switch and wheel barrel back
    20 decline merkins utilizing the railing
    20 low slow squats

    We lunged the long length back to the Adirondack chairs for
    20 Bulgarian Splits squats each leg
    20 Bohemian rhapsodies

    We took our frisbee and moseyed to The Foundry stopping for 5 burpees with each drop

    One at the Foundry we had six stations with one station being run backwards to the track and run forward back to the playground as the timer
    2. LBC’s
    3. Pull Ups
    4. Bobby Hurley’s
    5. Big Boi sit ups
    6. Merkins

    As the time approached 0705 we made our way back the the rear of NOMA where we found Tool out on a run who joined us for Sunday Mornings and COT.

  • Fun and Frac at the Foundry – from Fracsac

    8 Pax posted to the Foundry knowing what was coming, and they still showed! A brief disclaimer followed by a mosey to the track.
    Warmup was mostly normal stuff, including MNC where dancing was highly encouraged.
    There were no SSH for good reason. They came with 1st COP:
    Shock and Awe with SSH x 5 per round, 10 burpees descending downward. Since we never do 1 burpee, it was 10 at the bottom of the round for 64 total. Cap it off with 6 more to get to 70.
    Partner up with Catch Me if U Can on the Track. Pax 1 starts running backwards while Pax 2 does 3 burpees and then sprints to catch Pax 1. Complete 4 rounds for 12 more burpees.
    Set cones in a circle in the field and split up for two teams of 4 pax. We played a game of keep away with the football where 5 complete passes gets a point, two hand touch style. Fun times!
    Finish off burpees to get to 100.

    Mosey back to flag for COT

    NMM

    -100 burpees sort of sucks, while 100 burpees with a fun game rocks!
    -We get up early to be challenged, and we want to have fun. Adult male recess is something you won’t find at a gym. Keep challenging each other, support one another, and fun! Laughing and burpees? It’s a thing!

    Thanks for allowing me to be part of F3, and know that you are all loved.

  • Frac Rocks the City – from Fracsac

    Frac week continued with a stop at the AO known as Rock City, The Rock City, The Real Rock City. The theory that Slaughter proposed would once again be put to the test.
    Warmup started with the typical stuff, including 31 SSH and of course MNC where dancing was highly encouraged.
    Mosey to the rock pile.
    Circle up for a little modified shock and awe.
    SSH IC x 5 followed by 10 burpees OYO
    SSH IC x 5 and 9 burpees OYO
    Stop at SSH IC x 5 and 3 burpees OYO
    That gets us to 52.
    Partner up and grab a rock, a big Rock, a Real Big Rock! Heisenberg took this quite literal!
    Partner 1 Carrie’s the rock ahead while partner 2 does 5 squats and 2 Merkins then sprints up to swap. Out about 250 yards and back.
    Throw the rocks back and mosey to the field.
    EMOM x 5 with burpees. 10 for first 3 minutes and 11 for last 2 minutes. That’s another 52!
    Last we played a little variation of ultimate football followed by some Mary with Catalina Wine Mixers x 10.

    The pax proved again that Slaughter was wrong. These men were not soft in the 1st F, they were strong in the 2nd F and they exploded with the 3rd F!
    Thanks for joining me today as YHC celebrates his latest journey around the Sun!

  • Frac Week Kicks Off – from Fracsac

    YHC arrived at the Renaissance and planted the shovel flag early in order to welcome the Pax that dared show to the kick off of Frac Week. Surge, Heisenberg, Vagabond, BayWatch, Tool, MacGyver and YHC were ready to roll at 0630. The disclaimer included the standard modify as needed, but no “Whiskey-Dicking!”

    Face the bacon for standard warmup which included some arm circles and MNC where dancing was highly encouraged!

    Mosey to the field for a little EMOM with 10 burpees x 5 minutes. The pax easily completed this task, questioning YHCs stopping at 5 minutes!

    Mosey to the hill near the LCM for some gravity derkins and Big boi sit-ups. Then circle up for some bear crawl and Catalina Wine mixers x 10.

    Mosey back toward NOMA with Good Morning Burpees fun. YHC found a young lady walking and veered in that direction. BayWatch yelled good morning from about 50 yards away, which did not earn a return good morning. Said lady seemed to pick up her pace in the opposite direction. 10 burpees for the pax!
    Mosey to NOMA where more good mornings were called out. Total at this point was 80 burpees.
    Set up some cones in the field for a few minutes of ultimate football with burpees . It was 3 on 4, with YHC, Vagabond and Surge thumping the other team. It’s YHCs week, so slight bending of the rules are allowed….

    Back of NOMA for 5 x Sunday mornings.

    Good morning Burpees again on the way back to the flag!

    Roughly 100 burpees complete on top of the other awesome stuff.

    – If you listen to the F3 COT podcast, you heard our Nations Nant’an (Slaughter) questioning if the Pax were getting soft on the 1st F. Frac Week will determine if that is true. The HIMs at the Renaissance proved him wrong! Solid work from these Pax!
    – What is “Whiskey-Dicking” you ask? From the F3 Lexicon it is the Tentative execution of a task. In other words, not completing the burpees because you don’t want to. Are you modifying or are you Whiskey-Dicking??
    – Thanks to the 6 Pax that joined to kick off Frac Week!
