    Crushed a great workout this morning!

    YHC has officially joined the “pulled hammy” club. Got the honor of naming our newest FNG Cap Gains and his 2.0, Dragon Trainer. Even had YHC’s own 2.0s in the mix today and got to name his son Speed today! This F3 thing continues to be something truly impactful. Without it, we wouldn’t be crossing paths with so many awesome people in our community. It’s not just the men it’s our 2.0s that are building friendships and learning what it means to have leadership and have goals. It pulls and pushes so much positivity into all corners of our lives. Feeling grateful today for the motivation, for the fellowship, and for this community that keeps showing up. Impressed and inspired

    Sugar rush took us out in prayer

    Don’t Waste The Day!!

  • Hard On For Morning Men

    Seven gloom warriors shattered any remnant of lazy Saturday vibes by packing out heavy steel weights and speed rucking a few miles around Rockwoods Park in preparation for Big Rig’s birthday Q. Great to meet Cavity Search and share some missionary adventure stories. Gos is good all the time! Yours AYE, DTH

  • Ruck-a-ccino

    7 HIMs broke the sound barrier today. Crabby was hitting the snooze button but eventually made it out to meet us. According to the woman who flicked us off, here’s what happened…

    Met at stop sign and had an FNG join us! 6 originally but Crabby texted us so we made a rendezvous point down by the reservoir. Met up and swung by Toby’s house but he wasn’t there, so we went down past the gas station and doubled back.

    Today’s conversation: scary/horror movies, the Zeissometer, Rudy’s Timberwolf record, work travel tips and tricks, swim lessons, and Brazilian meats in July

    most stayed for extra credit and got 5 miles in. FNG coming Monday to get a name.

  • Porto Pottie Pick…

    Saab abides

  • Here’s your sign

    Got a text from the Q this morning saying he wasn’t feeling well. Honestly, I hadn’t planned on showing up. But then I got another message from Beaver saying there was a chance an FNG might show up. That felt like a sign. So I laced up my shoes, stepped out the door, and committed. Here’s how it went down…..

    Warmarama

    • SSH
    • A lot of wives and moms
    • Knee knockers
    • Copperhead squats
    • Imperial walkers
    • Imaginary jump ropes
    • Merkins

    COP1

    10 rounds of 3, 6, 9

    3 pull ups

    6 dips

    9 Merkins

    Run after the 5th round and 10th round

    COP2

    11s bro code style

    Merkins and Squats

    We had an FNG join us this morning turns out he lives just 100 yards away. He owns a trucking company that operates out of the Port of Norfolk and is also involved in real estate, along with a few other things. He’s got two young kids and another one on the way. Excited to hopefully have him out again tomorrow for a lumberyard work out and giving him a name!

    YHC out

    Don’t waste the day!

    Final Thoughts: Burpees? Running? Grass? All frowned upon at the Twin Team Lounge – who knew? Hoping to get off probation status in the near future. Great work by the PAX!

  • Too Much Daylight

    Disoriented by the light, the PAX set off on a route that proved too complex.  Here’s the intention:

    MOLESKIN

    Happy National Donut Day if you so choose to celebrate it.  Definitely a made-up holiday YHC can get behind.  Would a donut flag in the yard be too much of a political statement?  Handshake’s neighbors could debate it for days.

  • D-Day

    Today is the 81st anniversary of D-Day. Of the 16.4 million who served in WWII, it’s estimated less than 60,000 are alive to tell the story. Truly an end of an era, so today we paid homage.

    10 HIMs came out today wearing a ruck or weighted vest. They were met with a choice of coupons to carry as well, each member carrying 60-70 pounds for the entire workout. BLIMPS style workout up and down Satans Hill to honor the five beaches stormed: Utah, Juno, Gold, Sword, and Omaha.

    we merged Sword and Omaha together for time, but 9 times up and down the hill with 10 reps of corresponding exercises at each turn.
    Those were some tough steps today, proud of the 9 guys who joined me, we kicked the week of Crabby off right!

    Father’s Day Q 6/15, Summer Tour Dogpile tomorrow, prayers for Futons wife traveling, happy birthday Woodsman (40!) and happy anniversary to Cookie (14 for sure this time) and Futon (11)
