Tag: Satan’s Hill

Lucky number 13 HIMs locked shields to join YHC in a memorial Q for his fallen brother at Satan’s Hill. More on this in COT. It’s been a few weeks since YHC has jumped on the Q sheet, and instead of dealing with the heaviness of the last week as a Sad Clown, he decided it was time to jump headfirst back into the gloom with his brothers that helped to pull him out of it to begin with. What a better way to do that than to lead!

COP – 39 SSHs, DQs, Arm Circles front and back totaling 39, Imperial Walkers, Cherry Pickers, Merkins, LBCs, Flutter Kicks.

The Thang–

Mosey to the top of the hill for a 4-corner build that Wilson surely missed out on. Corner 1 – 10 up/downs, corner 2 – 10 up/downs, 20 merkins, corner 3 – 10 up/downs, 20 merkins, 30 groiners, corner 4 – 10 up/downs, 20 merkins, 30 groiners, 40 squat jumps…see what we did there?! Deconstructed Burpees. Mosey to start and reconstruct with 10 burpees. There was plenty of mumblechatter among the PAX to kick things off until we got to corner 3, at which time it quickly turned from laughable conversation to Tim Allen style grunts.

Mosey to bottom of the hill grab a coupon, triple check…complex style. Partner one runs with rock overhead to the curb and does 10 thrusters, partner 2 – WW2 with rock, partner 3 – American Hammers with rock. Recover.

Triple check #2 – Partners 2/3 lose the rocks. Partner 1 runs with rock overhead and completes a curl, overhead press to tricep extension (1 rep). Complete 10 full reps and run back with rock overhead. Partner 2 – LBCs, Partner 3 – Freddie Mercury.

Mosey to start and complete 39 squats

COT – Numberama/Namerama. YHC opened up to the significance of the number 39. Some knew, some didn’t that YHC lost a close friend this week. His best friend from high school unexpectedly passed away from a heart attack at the age of 39. He lived his life on the road, by himself aside from his work colleagues, and had never found something as beneficial as F3. Instead of having a brotherhood like F3 to help him overcome Sad Clown syndrome, he turned to food, alcohol, and an unfit lifestyle. A sobering reminder to hug those close to you, reach out to those you have “meant” to reach out to more often, and never lose sight of the fact that you never know when the last time, might just possibly be the last time. A reminder to reach out and shield lock our brothers that we have not seen in a while. A reminder to get a will or trust completed to save your family that additional grief if that were to ever come. (Thank you for that reminder Nancy).

YHC gives a big thanks to the PAX that have reached out over the last few days, that listened to the story, and that gave a hug or fist bump after the Q. YHC sincerely appreciates each of you for your brotherhood, and for helping shake the Sad Clown Syndrome he was dealing with before he joined.
