3 NOS pirates raided the Alamo and planted the Ghost Flag with 15 SOS. The music was loud and everyone was on edge. Warmarama with SSHs, DQs, helicopters, imperial squat walkers. A request to turn down the volume so as not to offend the neighbors. Mosey to the courts for some Cocaine Bear crawls with ascending mirkins. Run it back with lunge walks and ascending squats. YHC didn’t drive to the southern reaches to quietly Q, so we had to take it to the club. Snuff Underground isn’t one venue, it’s a state of mind. Mosey to the tunnel where…

Fourteen SOJ Redwoods came to start the week right and see what was in store on the sunny and 70 degree morning. YHC had learned that our own Futon would be hitting his 300th post today so in honor of that we would do 300 of every exercise called. Starting off with Burpees. **The events described here are based on true events. Some of the names, places and exercises may have been changed to protect the innocent. This was also modified to fit your screen. Quick mosey around the to start. COP- 20 each SSH, LBC; Seal Training: Overhead…

12 lucky F3 faithful started the week off right by fighting off the fartsack and posting out to the Alamo (AKA the FNG machine). This FNG was courtesy of Elle Woods but is a New Marketeer. The clock struck 530 and off we went. Quick mosey around the lot. 20 each SSH, LBC; Seal Training: Overhead claps, front claps, 10 Each, Jazzercise, Helicopters, Imperials Walkers, , Copper head squat, Cherry pickers, Merkins, Dollies, Flutters.   To the top of the bunker.

Q sheet was open as of Sunday so YHC grabbed it but wondered what to do. Relive Iron Pax? Boberry just dropped that hammer. EMOMs? No doing that Wednesday. What about….redoing Blacktops Q!? Haven’t done that in a minute! YHC texted Blacktop and he was excited and said he’d join, so that’s what we did! Today was the definition of muggy but we got after it. Run down and around the corner then circle up for mission and warmups. Then run to Matlock house. Two teams, each team runs to next intersection and does 5 WW2. Run back and do…

It was a hot and humid morning but 16 HIMS were up for the challenge. I had this workout planned for several weeks and then Crabgrass decides last week to do it but I like the pain so why not do it again? Mosey across the way and circled up for some warm up exercises including SSH, Jazzercise (after being complimented by Nancy last week for good form), cherry pickers, LBCs, and merkins. Thing 1: partnered up for 100 reps of squats and merkins alternating exercises after 10 reps, then a run to the next intersection. This was repeated again…

Le Dukes VQ – High Heart Rates, Lots of PAX, More Burbees than expected

On humid morning 20 men rolled out of bed to The Alamo for an exciting beat down. Any indulgences from the weekend would be quickly quelled with the workout to come. The Q was more nervous than he was in high school when the girl up the street invited him over to “chill and watch One Tree Hill” while her parents were out of town. He would definitely see more action today than in the past. F3 is about leadership and stepping out of your comfort zone and accepting the honor of leading others. The Duke led them on a…

‘Twas the day after Father’s Day, when all through the town, F3 men and dads rose with a groan, not making a sound. Their bellies were full of sinful libations and feasts from last night. Yet their movie spirits were high, ready to fight. In sneakers and t-shirts, they converged on the Rountrey parking lot “gym”, each man with a grin though their eyes were quite dim. From burgers and brews, and gifts wrapped with care. They’d celebrated well, now it was time to REPAIR. Fandango led them on a mosey and then a warmup that involved side-straddle hops, dead…

During the CSAUP, Alamo got pooped on for “just being a parking lot” so I was set on showing that Alamo has a softer, gentler, more delicate side once you really get to know it. Today the pax got to experience the tranquil embrace of nature as we made our way to the serene views of the reservoir… And were met with two piles of coupons to remind us that our @$$ was Grass today! Nancy reminded YHC we start at 5:30 but I didn’t want to leave the downrange (and 12 year F3 Veteran, Guinness) in the dust. 20…

On this clear and cool morning, 18 men came out to support YHC on his VQ. Ten weeks ago, I came out to the Alamo after seeing a Facebook post and haven’t looked back. I’m grateful for the motivation and support offered by the PAX, so it seemed only right to try and give a little something back. After a brief mosey, we warmed up with some SSHs, Arm Circles, Cherry Pickers, Side Shuffles, Karaokes, and Ukrainian Soldiers. Then it was down to business . . . Round 1: 15 Walkout Merkins > Run > 30 Squats > Run >…

Been awhile since I led the merry men of the Alamo, so I put together a little something special about five minutes before blast off. 5:30. Let’s go! Warmed up in the thunder dome after providing the official F3 mission statement, creedo and various warning labels. Warmup included squats, various stretches, and introduction of the “superman swim”. COP 1: Jog as a group to the bottom of Endstone Trail. We basically did an overly complicated iron man themed Jacob’s ladder. Run all the way up hill to mailbox #1 where 1 merkin was performed, followed by 10 Freddie Mercury’s (cycling).…
