  • I think I saw Tzatziki’s Gyro

    Eight merry men took off to NM villages for a little jog and fully body calisthenics session. Pretty sure we got to see more than we paid for doing Burt Reynolds let exercises.

    We hit it all: 1) Legs, 2) Core, 3) Upper body (highlight being the drop set prison push ups).

    Got about 2 miles in today.

    Prayers all around.

    PS: Futon and I did some public service by tossing a soiled mattress in the dumpster.

  • 3 Year Anniversary of F3

    Warmup: Mosey to the bottom of Satan’s Hill and back to the front of parking lot (currently closed off due to resurfacing). Performed various IC exercises/stretches

    COP 1: Took off running up Satan’s Hill to honor 3 years and the 3 Fs as we performed the following:

    Fitness – Triple Checks at each cul-de-sac. 3 Triple Checks which included Squats/Lunges/Runner; SSH/Ball Dippers/Runner; Burpees/Mountain Climbers/Runner

    Fellowship – Running through the neighborhood – stopped at each house that was owned by a F3 member to alternate between 10 Booyah merkins and 10 Booyah sit ups

    Faith – Running through the neighborhood – stopped at each lamp post that was lit on the right to alternate between 10 HRMs and 10 Heels to Heaven

    Ended with a little Bear Crawl, Crawl Bear and Bernie back down the hill to the flag to end things at 6:15.

Have a blessed day and keep showing up to support one another!

    No Crabgrass No Cry
    A Reggae Anthem for the Gloom

    [Verse 1]
    Early morning, sun just rising low
    PAX assembled, ready for the show
    We looked around, no Q in sight today
    Crabgrass fart sacked, he just slept away
    Mmm, don’t worry ’bout a thing
    El Heisto stepped up, yeah he answered the call
    Don’t worry ’bout a thing
    ’Cause every little thing, we gonna work it all

    [Chorus]
    No crabgrass, no cry
    No crabgrass, no cry
    He fart sacked on us, but we don’t know why
    No crabgrass, no cry

    [Verse 2]
    El Heisto warmed us up, got the blood flowin’ right
    Prenoman Lane and Sultree in the morning light
    Hills were calling, legs were burning free
    Triple checks on abs, yeah the six was suffering
    Mmm, don’t worry ’bout a thing
    We circled up and ran the Indian way
    Don’t worry ’bout a thing
    Back to the flag to start the coupon play

    Chorus]
    No crabgrass, no cry
    No crabgrass, no cry
    He fart sacked on us, but we held it down
    No crabgrass, no cry

    [Bridge]
    El Heisto says — pick it up!
    El Heisto says — lift that thing!
    Swoop wasn’t listening, oh no no
    Dropped him down for burpees, watch him go
    Swoop got caught, didn’t hear the word
    “El Heisto says” — lesson well deserved
    One penalty burpee, down and back up high
    That’s the price you pay when you don’t comply

    Verse 3]
    Now we lift our voices, got some praise to sing
    Globetrotter’s PAX, let the good news ring
    Hermey’s little one, the cancer’s turned away
    Healthy and free, yeah, we thank the Lord today
    Mmm, these are the things worth crying for
    Tears of joy and gratitude, yeah
    Hold your brothers close
    And thank Him for it all

    Chorus]
    No crabgrass, no cry
    No crabgrass, no cry
    We carried on, yeah we held it down
    No crabgrass, no cry

    Outro — slow and mellow]
    Saturday’s coming, Dogpile’s gonna lead
    Flatline and NtB, send them off with speed
    One last sendoff party, afternoon sun high
    Raise it up for brothers, raise it to the sky
    No crabgrass… no cry…
    No crabgrass… no cry…
    Every little thing… is gonna be alright…
    Every little thing… is gonna be alright…

  • Proper Beast, Done improperly

    A Standing room only crowd of 14 of SOJ’s finest came out to brush up on how to do a beast properly. 6x6x6 right. Great to see Gotham and Snooki making the shed proud. And Alamo had some representation. Even Crumb showed up for his first workout in months. After explaining who Iron Maiden was the PAX was off.

    COP- 20 each SSH, LBC; Willy Mays Hayes, 10 Each, Jim Duggan’s,  Jazzercise, Helicopters, Imperials Walkers, , Copper head squat, Cherry pickers, Merkins, Dollies, Flutters. 

    On to It. A beast up Satan’s hill. Exercises were WWII’s, Squats, SSH’s, Drydocks, LT. Dan’s and 2 more exercises not in my frontal lobe. And yes, that was 7 rounds? We broke from the norm and did to reps down side street which threw off the cadence. Oh well.

    Prayers to many needing healing hands.

    YHC took us out in prayer.

  • 100 Posts Stronger

    For the 100th time, yours truly assembled with the Pax for a proper F3 beatdown. According to the light in the New Market fountain, heres how it went down:

    Short mosey and warm up.

    Four Corners, prostitute style, 100 reps each corner. Corner 1: Toe Taps; Corner 2: LBCs; Corner 3: Squats; Corner 4: Shoulder Taps. (I’m gonna be honest fellas, I severely underestimated just how many LBCs this would be; my bad).

    Catch Me If You Can: Bear crawl up Satan’s Hill while a partner does 20 merkins. Switch and repeat until the top.

    Ring of Fire: I’ve always wanted to a do a ring of fire that actually makes it all the way around. Today we accomplished such a feat. 20 reps of each exercise. Only Rule: No Burpees (Up Downs, unfortunately, are not Burpees).

    COT: Announcements: Boys of Summer starts May 7 at Timberwolf; Memorial Day convergence, details on Slack. Prayers: Hermie’s son.

    Grateful for the opportunity to lead, and more grateful for this group of men who push me to grow each day. Thankful for 100 posts and cheers to the next 100!
