One of YHCs favorite aspects of F3 is that every pax brings a different service to the table. For some it’s quiet strength , for others maybe it’s cutting edge Bluetooth technology. Physically there’s Clydesdales , Greyhounds , crabwalkers and some bodies held together by a patchwork of novenas. We have certified poets, storytellers and beatdown historians. Medical professionals, theologians, engineers, secretive government clearances, professors, …the list goes on.
Personally speaking, YHC bears the heavy burden of being the cultural educator of our pax. As a byproduct of being raised at the epicenter of cultural awareness I am most useful in pronouncing Anglo Saxon terms like “cone” and explaining complex family dynamics like the “uncle cousin”.
Thus it’s YHCs duty to stay vigilant when there are clear gaps in pax knowledge. It’s with this awareness and responsibility that YHC must present the annual review of the greatest of classical ballets.
Today we complete Act II of …
The BUTTCRACKER
By ThighKowsky
Duke!!! Take off that tutu and roll that beautiful beatdown footage!!
6 sugar plums warriors fought through the Christmas calorie coma to post at Tuesday Tuff. YHC stirred the pot a bit by leaving JBL on the sidelines today. Every good coach knows you have to keep your best player motivated. YHCs 2.1 received a Bluetooth microphone for Christmas and it was barely out of the box before YHC had Lil Jon coursing through its veins. With a 10 page rental agreement signed , YHC was allowed to enlist it to help aid in today’s education.
Warm up
The usuals while we got mentally ready by listening to a completely random selection of unrelated classical music by a hot new SoundCloud artist Pyotr Tchaikovsky (no relation to the great ThighKowsky) Good stuff though, he should think about having ppl dance to it. Anyway…
We left off last Decembers Act I in a cliff hanger. The evil Mouse King slain by the Nutcracker, He and Clara are whisked away through the snow forest to the land of the SweetGrass loop.
Thang 1

**Attempt to stay in rhythm with the chorus
Tin Soldiers during rest
Goose gave us updates from the land of teenage 2.0s that techno is now called EDM. What a time to be alive!
YHC pointed this out as a TECHNOcality…..Valve promptly threw up in his mouth then he made mental notes to check 2024 wellness center rates.
Completely warm we headed for the Land Of SweetGrass Loop
Indian Run to Back Corner lot
Drop off 3 star jumps
Da Main Thang
We arrived at the back lot of SweetGrass loop and a glowing marker board full of treats held our gaze.
It was here that the newest wearable trophy was presented to the pax.
Due to the recent MIA reports of Animal and GiGi the need for a new badge of honor was evident.
It’s been clear that it’s something worth inVESTigating but we could wait no longer. YHC had to convince the pax that your legs are worth inVESTing in and that today and so forth on all days this inVESTment would stand for a man that pushed passed the comfort of warm sleeves and into the wild blue yonder of shared suffering.
A mere vest you say???
No says I !!
The inVESTment was hewn from the tender follicles of 1000 newborn Himalayan alpacas. It’s waterproof, sweat proof, fire proof and chatter proof. It will prevail through countless reps to the man that is pushing to max effort and it won’t sleep till it finds its next victor.
The pax were now frothing at the mouth for some cardio so we got down to business .
The idea was to gain treats as we traversed the SweetGrass Kingdom all while licking the air and tasting the delectable treats.
Start at Corner Lot
Add exercise each round
(Billy Madison format)
Fartlek 1/4 ish mile while you taste the air of the flatulent man in front of you
Fartlek modes : Nur, Low gear (mosey) medium gear , high gear (sprint)
The exercises…
10 Goosies
15 Apollo Onos (2:1)
20 ballerina squats
25 gorilla humpers (wide stance)
30 Star Jumps
The lactic acid cups over floweth and the pax pushed it to the limit. we narrowly missed completing every round but finished all 5 exercises in sequence in round 4.
Suckle led the pack with Goose and Pope hard on his heels. YHC and Valve discussed the finer things in life and Cuz kept pace with dat dawgggg in his chest and the steam on his brow.
Much fun was had and the complaint box at Site Q headquarters will be full with concerns about ballerina squats for a few weeks. Good luck with a reply.
Indian Run back home as our dreams of sugar plums faded into jello pudding legs.
COT HoneySuckle prayed us out.
