Blessings, Burpees and Beach Boys

0

29 Beach Boys had fun, fun, fun on this beautiful Saturday morning til Dadd…, Mommy brought doughnuts! It was a larger crowd than YHC expected and had to adjust on the fly for the big numbers. With the 1984 Playlist blaring (thanks to State Farm) PAX made their way to the baseball field.

Mosey to the outfield for the standard warmarama. Then on to the left field foul pole for the Indigenous Polesmokers. The PAX in the rear would bear crawl to the front until PAX made the foul pole in right field. With the big numbers, it was a longgg bear crawl!

4 Corners (prostitute style) in the outfield

1st corner 10 Lieutenant Dans

2nd 20 Plank Jacks

3rd 30 Merkins

4th 40 BURPEES (ouch!)

Mosey back to the parking lots for a Songorama

Beach Boys “Help Me Rhonda”

Hand Release Merkins every time the name Rhonda is mentioned (it was about 40 times), and Mountain Climbers in between. The moaning and groaning from the PAX was the real music to my ears!

Followed by a few minutes of Mary

LBCs, Oblique V ups (both sides), Alabama Prom Dates, Supermans

Partner up

One partner does broad jump burpees and the other runs to the end of the parking lot and back until both PAX are at the end of the lot.

Songorama

Beach Boys “Barbara Anne”

Big Boy situps every time they say Barbara Anne and American Hammers when not. This was going well and then the speaker died, but that didn’t stop the PAX from singing the rest of the song verbatim in perfect harmony, while performing the exercises! This was awesome!

One final exercise

Alternating stiff legged LBCs (Big Rigs)

YHC emptied the tank to get to the 40 count on these!

BTTF where there was, to my surprise, my awesome M, and 2.0! So apparently the M had conspired with Florence to pump up the numbers for this Birthday Q! And she brought 40 doughnuts!

PAX proceeded to sing Happy Birthday, while making all the gloves rained down at my feet!

I have to say, this was a truly special surprise! I have so much to be thankful for starting with my incredible wife, and awesome daughter!

F3 has really changed my life in so many ways that I can’t put into words. There was a time when I wasn’t sure if I’d make it to 40 years old. But I did and it doesn’t feel like a finish line. It almost feels more like just the start. I’m not just in the best shape of my life, I feel like I am the best father, husband, friend, and person that I have ever been. But I also know that I can still be so much better. And I can attribute this to F3, as well as the support of my amazing wife and 2.0.

Get out there and get those FNGs! This group has changed my life, and can do the same for so many guys out there!
