What are the greatest rivalries of all time? Some come to mind. Yankees vs Bo Sox? Rocky vs Apollo Creed? JBL vs Anker (RIP!)? Gandalf vs Saruman? Lil Cuz’s Neck vs Gravity? Yankee Joe vs Father Time? All great. But Regardless of the pairing, one thing is always present in …
I arrived at the stage at 5:25 with the majority of the PAX plus and FNG waiting for the beatdown to start. It was 66 Degrees Partly cloudy and so humid that it felt hotter than a Billy-Goat’s six in a pepper patch. There was 5 minutes of per-chatter mostly …
YHC arrived in the gloom to no awaiting vehicles around 5:20, noticing that it was a little cooler than yesterday. About 5:22 a familiar minivan driven by an older gentleman we call Yankee Joe pulled into the Stage. As 5:30 quickly approached it seem that it would be just the …
What can Brown do for you? After thorough deliberation and meditation on a reborn VQ, YHC listened to those muscles that were left out from previous beatdowns. These muscles craved lactic acid the way a man craves the last minute delivery of a forgotten present for Christmas. The one your …
An incredible 10 PAX hiit The Stage on a brisk, gloomy Thursday morning. When preparing for the beatdown, YHC struggled with themes and/or purposeful routines that would best serve the PAX. Every time I got close to hiiting on an idea, I would hiit a brick wall. It was frustrating. …

YHC was ready to make a splash to close out the year thankful to be a part of F3 Thibodaux. This was my first Peltch que and after a quick consult with my Dr. (POOx) I was ready to launch into the workout. 11 guys showed up, 1 new guy …
It was another frigid morning, this time at The Stage, so Enron wore socks and only Paradox’s eyes were showing through a jungle of F3 logos. YHC was also donning new, post-Christmas Mudgear gear as five total PAX gathered in the icy gloom. YHC arrived two minutes late due to …
To the Men of F3 Thibodaux, There are no words to accurately describe my level of gratitude for each of you. Whether we’ve been together for one beatdown or 50, you have taught me something, and each something has been invaluable. F3 has a term, “IM3,” which is a Man’s …
