  • The Day After…

    After a quick disclaimer at the flag, the pax moved to flat ground in close proximity to the rock pile for the following warm up exercises:

    SSH – 20, Self Love – 10, Arm Circles (Forward) – 10 (backwards)- 10, Windmills – 15, Imperial Walkers – 20

    After the Pax chose their rock, we moseyed to the football field, circled up and performed the following excercises, rinsed and repeated with a lap around the track after each set.

    Thrusters – 20, Curls – 20, Triceps – 15

    The pax then slow moseyed to the goal line on our side of the football field, and partnered up for the following:

    Partner 1 sprinted approximately 50 yards and back while partner 2 did the following excerises with their rock. The partners switched after each exercise until completed.

    Squat Thursters, Curls, Triceps, Low Slow Squats

    We rinsed and repeated with the following exercises:

    Goblet Squats, LBCs, Curls, Triceps

    Once completed, the PAX circled up for some MARY to close the workout. Exercises completed were as follows:

    Penguins – 20, Flutter Kicks – 20, Freedom Hammers – 20, Dying Cockroach – 20,

    We proceeded to return our rocks, and circle up at the flag for count off, nameorama, announcements, and closing prayer.

  • Tribute to Terabyte at the Mothership

    F3 lost one of its own earlier in the week. Terabyte was a caring leader that pushed himself, and inspired other pax to become better. He will be missed.

    YHC stated that we will carry a flag for our fallen pax as we trudged through the AO. We will sweat, push ourselves, and feel pain. In this way, we will honor him, ’cause that’s what we do. 40 men, including 3 FNG’s, were ready to go.

    Brief disclaimer, then pick up the flag and mosey to the Great lawn for the warmup

  • The River meets Kenner

    Suggested to have another AO location to add scenery to Troubled Water, so a suggestion was given to have the PAX arrive at RiverTown, where LA State HWYs 48 meets 49.

    Arrived to look things over and Torque was brave enough to come out of St. Charles parish to meet in the gloom for the beat down.

    Instructions given, not a trained trainer modify as necessary..etc …etc..etc

    Warm up

    • SSH x 20 IC
    • Windmills x 20 IC
    • Armcircles x 20 forward and backward IC
    • Keep them up – [The Kimchi special]
    • Seal Claps x 10 IC
    • Copperhead Cquats x 10 IC
    • Step-Ups x 20 NC

    While warming up, kept looking at the stairs going up on the right then coming down on the left or it could be up left, down right, a partner workout was born – Chipper understands “Born” as he has a handsome 2.0 –

    What was done , son

    Go up the steps, run or jog or walk, at the top complete 5 burpees, don’t get hit by the cyclist,  then down the steps on the other side, tap out partner and this would continue until numbers were met…

    • 100 WWII situps
    • 100 Air Squats
    • 100 Inclined Merkins

    Head over to the bench area to complete 15 sec, then 30 sec, then 45 sec static leg holds – O the pain static can bring – then planked for 60 sec more. Since it was only two of us, no monkey humpers were allowed.

    Hey Mary

    Got down to our six and completed

    • LBC x 20 IC
    • Hello Dolly x 10 IC
