3 Pax were present at #DragonSlayer this morning. Here’s what went down:

Welcome/Disclaimer

Warmarama (IC):

-Slow Wind Mill x10

-Long snapper x10

-Side Straddle Hops x50 (100 IC)

-Imperial Storm Troopers x20 (40 IC)

A round of 52 card pickup began:

Each Pax drew a card. All numbered cards resulted in Pax choice of KB exercise for the number of reps on the card plus 10. All non numbered cards (Royals, Aces) result in a sharknado. The results were 3 rounds of Sharknado consisting of a total of:

-15 laps around the parking lot

-45 burpees

-60 diamond Merkins

-60 Merkins

-60 Wide Merkins

-60 WWII’s

6 other cadence called reps/exercises resulting in:

-Curls x18 (36 IC)

-Overhead Press x12 (24 IC)

-Lawnmower each side x10 (40 IC)

-Goblet squats x17 (34 IC)

Recover, Recover

Moleskin:

Shadow and Cherry Bomb were beasts. Cherry Bomb argued with YHC about his version of the Sharknado. Reminder: It’s always the Q’s choice. After we were past that issue, Cherry Bomb acted as if he were at an elementary school field day competition. He was in it to win it. Shadow and I just tried to keep up. Actually, Shadow tried to keep up with Cherry Bomb and YHC tried to keep up with Shadow. It’s always easy to pick up the 6 when it’s you! Shadow may have a VQ baptism soon (date TBD). Thanks for showing gents. It was great to start the day with my F3 brothers in the gloom.

COT/Namarama/Announcements/Prayer:

-F3 Dad’s Camp this weekend!

-Unspoken prayer requests among F3.

-Remember Pax who have aging parents who are struggling with caregiving and/or health issues.

-Marriages

Reminder:

The F3 mission statement is “to plant, grow, and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership”. 

F3 5 Core Principles:

Workouts …

• Are free of charge
• Are open to all men
• Are held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
• Are led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary
• End with a Circle of Trust

There are plenty of Q slots at all AO’s. Please sign up. For new Pax, volunteer to lead/Q (we’ll help you co-Q). For you seasoned guys, sign up for some Q’s.

Invite a FNG or brother you haven’t seen in a while who’s a Kotter. Invite that #just1 who needs you more than you know (an invitation is a powerful thing brothers). If none of those work for you, just show up. No one will be left behind, but it all starts with the discipline to take one.

Until next time…
