Titan – 10.2.19 – “The One Where CL Makes Up For A Previous Q”

8 HIM evaded the misleading efforts posed by the fartsack and posted at Titan for a workout involving a playlist, coupons, some running, and a few Merkins here and there.

QIC: Cunning Linguist
PAX: Black Lung, Blue Mule, Cub Cadet, Drago, Money Snake, Reveille, Right Said

Disclaimer: Given with utmost sincerity and made sure that everyone was aware that I am not an expert or a professional, so modifications are encouraged for those who deem them necessary.

10.2.19 Titan Workout Playlist:
Running Down a Dream – Tom Petty
Circles – Soul Coughing
Lose Yourself – Eminem
House of the Rising Sun – Five Finger Death Punch
I Will Not Bow – Breaking Benjamin
Judith – A Perfect Circle
Bad Boys – Inner Circle
Walk – Pantera
Can I Kick It – A Tribe Called Quest
Something Just Like This – Chainsmokers ft. Coldplay

After Disclaimer was given, a short Mosey halfway around the ellipse for WOR.

WOR:
Theme Song: “Circles” by Soul Coughing
During first verse, 10 x SSH IC
During chorus, LBACs
During second verse, 10 x SnL Squats IC
During chorus, reverse LBACs
During third verse and final chorus, 12 x LBCs IC

Make an inspection mosey around the inside of the actual Parthenon then parked back at front of Parthenon for THE THANG:

THE THANG:
THANG 1:
Partner up in 1s and 2s
1s perform SSH at bottom of steps
2s bear crawl up the right side of the Parthenon to top of first landing, then 10 merkins
2s bear crawl to top of second landing, then 10 burpees
2s crawl bear back to top of first landing, then 10 merkins
2s crawl bear back to bottom left side of steps
Swap out

Mosey around the ellipse then back to original location for the next Activity, but first, a quick mosey to my trunk for a retrieval of coupons (aka 1/2 fire bricks)

THANG 2:
3 rounds of the following:
With a pair of coupons placed on ground in front of Parthenon, 1s perform Merkins
10 x Merkins with right hand on Coupon
10 x Merkins with both hands on Coupons
10 x Merkins with left hand on Coupon
2s sprint around Ellipse
Swap out

Another Mosey around the Ellipse before going back to our original location in front of the the Parthenon yet again for THANG 3 (experimental beta).

THANG 3 (experimental beta):
Wheelbarrow up the two sets of steps on the right side of the Parthenon with your partner to first landing, then swap out and go down the left side of the two sets of steps backwards with partner (and YHC must admit, this part was intense).

As this endeavor was more risky than anticipated, we stopped after one round.

Mosey around the Ellipse yet again, then we proceeded to get after THANG 4.

THANG 4:
2 rounds of DIDs
All OYO
15 x Dips
10 x Incline Merkins
5 x Decline Merkins
Mosey around Ellipse

Upon completion of THANG 4, we started on MARY.

MARY:
All IC
12 x LBCs
10 x Flutter Kicks
12 x Freddie Mercurys
20 x Alabama Prom Dates

COT/BOM

MOLESKINE:
This was definitely an improvement over Friday’s Q, as YHC landed the plane at 0615 and we all got a little sweaty as a group (and that’s a necessity).

Always a pleasure to lead you men!

BULLHORN:
10/29 – Libeery at Fat Bottom Brewery in The Nations. Time TBD. Book is “The Three Big Questions for Frantic Families” by Patrick Lencioni. The Art of Manliness podcast interview is a good summary, especially if you would rather consume the material through auditory means.

Time

NMM:
Lots of groaning today during the Fran Evolution of the Q only to be matched during the Sisyphus Evolution.

One thing YHC noticed is there seemed to be a lot of lolly gagging in between Evolutions, assuming that was to steady the heart rate and not an attempt to Whiskey Dick the workout.

Princess Aurora brought up 3S2T the other week after the 5 year, for the uninitiated that is Speed, Strength, Stamina Toughness (Physical/Mental). This was never more evident to me than during Sisyphus when the PAX were given less than clear directions and 1) had to figure some things out OYO & had to transport the coupon in a less than efficient manner. During RD III you could smell that hair burner smell as the coupons were drug across the court…such a sweet smell.

Bomber – 09.27.19 – “Lucky 18s”

26 HIM took that DRP and posted for a run-heavy workout that -ahem-  ran long, primarily due to an excess of Q-drenaline inspired by YHC’s 1-year F3 anniversary.

QIC: Cunning Linguist

PAX: Bad Boy, Bareback, Bicentennial Man, Cooties, Crablegs, Crawlspace, Dewey, Dinty Moore, Duplex, Dutch Oven, Firefox, Hambone, Hi-Viz, Lunch Lady, Macaroni, Money Snake (FNG), Napster, Pop-A-Lock, Porcelain, Pumpkin Spice, Reveille, Right Said, River Dawg, Studio 42, Vector

Disclaimer: Disclaimed per usual. BLUF: Don’t sue me or F3, there’s no money in it.

Mosey from shovel flag to “The Nip” for WOR:

18xSSH

9xLBAC

9xrLBAC

18xIW

18xSnL Squats

This totaled 72, as in the 72nd b-day of the US Air Force (which occurred about 10 days ago).

As the US Air Force has played an integral part of my life, I shared this celebration with the PAX.

We then moseyed (in near-full-gloom) toward the top of McCabe Hill” for Activity 1 of THE THANG:

Burpee Mile: 12 burpees every 1/4 mile or so.

We stopped two times (so half a mile in) then I whipped out a surprise at the bottom of McCabe Hill:

Activity 2:

Jacob’s Ladder: Mosey to bench, drop for 1 burpee, then to bottom of hill and back to the top for 2 burpees. RnR up to 7.

Al Gores upon early completion, which raised questions about the “Chair Force.”

Jokes – we sure got ‘em, don’t we?

Countdown from 30 to 1, then mosey along for our continuation of the Burpee Mile (which we effectively completed as a group).

At this point, it was suggested that we may not make it back to the shovelflag in time. I scoffed – after all, we *always* finish on time, right???

Feeling the beatdown set in, we all dropped for Activity 3:

18 LBCs OYO

And on we moseyed to the gazebo. At which point, we stopped for some early Mary (as YHC was about to Splash Merlot):
Mary:

10xLBCs

10xAlabama Prom Dates

10xFlutter Kicks

Then, realizing that we were NOT going to return to the parking lot in time, YHC called an AYG to the shovelflag.

All in at ~0619, which was, while not dreadful, still late. YHC needs to get better with respecting the time of others. It’s true.

BOM/COT

MOLESKINE:

Well, THAT was a learning opportunity. YHC has no excuse, other than an overabundance of Q-drenaline. YHC needs to work on reining that in and apologizes to the PAX of Bomber today, and while it WAS a celebration of sorts, today’s workout also served as a reminder that the Q is not infallible. YHC is a flawed human being, and as such, there is room for me to grow and learn from this experience.

BULLHORN:

Atlantis – 09.12.19 – “Tour De Les Nations”

8 PAX did that hard thing and posted at Atlantis for an educational sightseeing adventure as they got better together.

QIC: Cunning Linguist
PAX: Crablegs, Pop-A-Lock, Pumpkin Spice, Lunch Lady, Right Said, Toothless, Trapper Keeper

Disclaimer was disclaimed at 0530 and then we embarked on a short mosey to the end of Morrow Rd for our WOR in front of Taqueria Juqulita, arguably the best Mexican restaurant in the neighborhood.

WOR:

20 SSH

15 LBACs

15 rLBACs

12 WMH

10 SnL Squats

Following the WOR, we moseyed to Tennessee Ave and stopped to engage in The Thang, which YHC has affectionately dubbed the Tour De Les Nations.

THE THANG:

Tour De Les Nations

Activity 1.
20 Merkins IC

Mosey along Tennessee Ave to 51st and stop at the intersection of 51st and Centennial Ave to point out arguably the best brewery in town for some Burp(ee)s.

Activity 2.
25 Burp(ee)s OYO

Brief mosey to The Nations Silo, arguably the most iconic landmark in the neighborhood, where YHC explained who the old man on the silo is and how he has contributed to the revitalization of The Nations.

Activity 3.
S.I.L.O.
25 Squats
25 Imperial Walkers
25 Lieutenant Dans
25 Overhead Press
All OYO

Mosey along Centennial, hard left onto California Ave and then left on 60th then crossover to Pennsylvania Avenue to make a pit stop outside of DFrost’s home to take a knee and pay our respects due to his new 2.0. A video shout-out arguably may have been filmed as well.

Mosey back to 61st then right turn toward the entrance to West Park

Activity 4
AYG Sprint from entrance of West Park to shovelflag.

Then, on our sixes for MARY.

MARY:
15 Freddie Mercuries
20 LBCs
15 WWIs
12 Boxcutters

COT/BOM
Proverbs 16:3 – “Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”

MOLESKINE:
This was a full 2.5 miles of Q-drenaline. I especially appreciated the motivational mumblechatter of the PAX (I am talking directly to you, Mr. A-Lock), and I was only further inspired to get out and Q more workouts!

BULLHORN:
Prayers for the healing of injuries to Pumpkin Spice, and for the 2.0s of DFrost and Porcelain

Events:
9/14 – F3 Nashville 5th Anniversary Spectacular at Stonewall. I’ll be there.

10/29 – Libeery at Fat Bottom Brewery in Les Nations. Time still TBD. Reach out to Crablegs for additional deets.

C.L. out – SYITG!

Venus Goes Death Metal

PAX: Red Skull, Frugal McDougal, Black Lung, Money Shot, Big Stick, White Russian, Lew Pew (special return guest from Louisville), Edibles, Razor/Venus, Too Tall, Black Widow, Lumberg, Cowboy, Toga (QIC)

Plus CAPSLOCK, Tampa Libra and JK tackling IP Wk2

14(+3) Redwoods climbed the hill for a kettlebell swinging good time this morning.  Here’s how it went down:

Mosey to gym 1 to collect sandbags, mosey to gym 2 to collect kettlebells and commence warmarama outside.  Then circle up for kettlebell flow sequence:

  • 1 min single arm kb swing
  • 30s ea arm kb clean
  • 30s ea arm kb clean
  • 30s ea arm kb snatch
  • 30s ea arm kb clean and press
  • 30s ea arm kb lunge
  • 1 min goblet quats
  • 1 min 2 hand kb swing
  • 30s single leg kb deadlift
  • 8 kb “swing burpees”

Divvy up sandbags for shoulder switch relay= KB on right shoulder then run ~25 yrds, drop sb, lift to left shoulder, run 25 yds, switch again and repeat on the trip back.  Repeato 2x

Repeat kb flow noted above, return all coupons and head back to the lot for some Mary.

Announcements:  Get thee to the 5yr anniversary beatdown!!!

NMM:  This is a rough repeat of one of the first workouts YHC led at The Hill many moons ago.  It’s such a great AO with lots to do.  It’s also fun when Venus decides to employ his death metal scream when lifting weights.  It could be a great addition to the act.

Stay Classy,

Toga

NMM:
Thank yall for posting to at our 4th 9/11 Convergence. I am going on record to note my early AM snarkiness and that I will work on curbing it in the future. Sanctions, we can sound off in the gloom next time we are in mixed company. I snapped “No” but it would have made sense.
The fact that some PAX posted sans Ruck sack was fantastic and also a testament to my needing to work on clarity of communication if a Ruck was to be required. Make note, from here forward the 9/11 Convergence will be Ruck and Non Ruck friendly.
Grateful for yall and for your patience w YHC.
Love the Partnering up aspect (another area where YHC could have been a bit more cordial) of Qs as it’s a great way to push/be pushed and builds in some 2ndF to boot.
Lots of grinding put in this am and lots of positivity, something we could all use more of, dare I say.

I am sure we all remember where we were on 11 September 2001 and still remember how we felt as that morning unfolded. Regardless of your thoughts on the ongoing War on Terror and the side of the aisle you lean towards, you must admit the unbelievable feeling of unity and oneness in our country if only for a few short weeks. I liken that unity to what F3 has brought into my life and I hope yours, a group of men from different backgrounds, different socioeconomic views, political bents and faith stories coming together in the Gloom to get better.
Today we honored the 2,977 men and women killed on that fateful day, a day we will never forget and a day I hope we can continue to Memorialize not just on its anniversary but throughout the year as lives are lost to meaningless hate and violence.

BH:
Hit up Deck the Hollis and check out slack for info on his exploration of faith that he will be leading beginning 26 Sept.
Prayers up for Boones, for Ludwig, for my biz partner’s wife, for my friend Gibson’s dad-Pops, for Ocho Cinco’s dad & for all the unspokens.

See yall at Stonewall if not sooner.

Frisbee Game Still in Need of Repair

PAX: Crablegs, Hi-Viz, T-Cell, Hipster, Pumpkin Spice, Toothless, Trapper Keeper, The Nanny, Lunch Lady, En Fuego (QIC)

Conditions: Favorable

YHC let his fellow PAX know that YHC had experienced first-hand several rather unfortunate beatdowns in recent weeks, and in the words of Rocky Top’s finest it was time to “work like heck” to ensure no more were on the horizon.  0530 arrives, we disclaim, grab a handful of frisbees from Toothless’s inventory and mosey around the park to the parking lot to set up shop for WOR.  Somewhere along the way Hi-Viz got tangled with Crablegs on some side-shuffling and arrived to WOR with a left cheek in need of healing.  We closed out WOR with some Scorpion Stretches, then began the:

THANG:

Head to the Pizza Hut Pavilion, where YHC noted that there were many bad memories made in Neyland Stadium over the past 10+ years, but perhaps none more than what was experienced this past Saturday – as it’s not often your college football season ends before September.   We perform the following set in relation to Beatdown #1 -> Georgia State 38, Vols 30:

  • 3 merkins – because YHC was 3 years old the last time the Vols lost a season home opener;
  • 25 derkins – what better way to celebrate a program on the decline than some decline merkins, 25 of them to represent the fact the Vols were 25 point favorites walking into the stadium last Saturday night;
  • 82 2-count flutters – as the SEC had won 82 straight games when favored by 25 points or more; then close with
  • 40 down unders – as it represented the largest loss by an SEC team when favored by 25+ points in the last 40 seasons

After one round, it’s time to officially move on and put the Georgia State game behind us.  Back to the parking lot, where we focus on recent Beatdown #2…the Shire vs Westside Ultimate Frisbee game held several weeks back.  Things got ugly early and often for the Westside that day, and YHC decided it was officially time to practice our flying disc game.

Drill #1 – Catch & Release

  • Partner up, each pair of PAX with one frisbee, and spread about 10-15 yards apart
  • Side shuffle down the length of the lot and back, moving and passing frisbee along the way
  • Any time frisbee hits the ground, all PAX drop for 5 merkins on the way down, 7 merkins on the way back
  • 60 merkins later, YHC began to realize the recent beatdown was perhaps not an anomaly.  That’s why we head to the baseball diamond for…

Drill #2 – Distance & Accuracy

  • Divide into your Swaggy P teams, each team with a frisbee
  • First PAX steps up and gives the frisbee as big of a heave to centerfield as possible
  • Next two PAX try to drop their throws as close to initial throw as they can, as the longer the distance between the three the longer the bear crawl we were about to embark
  • 3 frisbees down, the 3 teams sprint to their respective frisbee and begin set of 10 hand release merkins, 20 WWIs, and 30 squats.  Upon completion, bear crawl to the next frisbee and R&R
  • After stopping to perform the 10/20/30 routine at all three frisbees, we’re all in and head toward the dugout, where YHC brings up recent Beatdown #3 – this week’s Killer Bs

Drill #3 – Killer B’s Frisbee Golf

  • One hole of Frisbee Golf, whereby Pumpkin Spice claimed we were looking at an approximate Par 5 from dugout we were standing by to dugout across the far diamond
  • Stay in your Swaggy P teams, each team playing the hole.  Killer B twist being after each throw, the team runs to their frisbee and before throwing again performs 10 burpees, 10 Bonnie Blairs and 10 Big Boys.  For throws 3-5, we modify for time to 5 reps of the above after each throw.  Two pars and a bogey later, we sprint back to the initial dugout, working on some long tosses to the PAX along the way.

Close it out with 90 seconds of Mary followed by COT.  YHC referenced in the COT that on this day 22 years ago Mother Theresa passed away.  A highly inspirational lady, there are many quotes you could turn to in her honor.  YHC referenced the following: “Yesterday is gone.  Tomorrow is not yet here.  We only have today – let us begin.”  We talked of the Call to Action involved in the “let us begin” – each PAX had started their day well, was time to stay strong from that point forward.  Be present. Be engaged.  Be excellent in all that you do as if working for the Lord, not for man.  Prayers for health and healing across the PAX, Pumpkin Spice specifically, and prayers for Hipster as he prepares for little man #3’s upcoming arrival.

Great work fellas – appreciate you experiencing the pain with YHC of those three recent beatdowns.  Always appreciative of the opportunity to lead

Turned out my designed Iron Pax Week 0 was welcomed with chagrin from Leatherneck and Offshore, “Man, that’s what we did at Purple Cow on Monday”. Learning from that: 1) Post BB so we don’t repeato the Qs 2) Stay informed on the Slack channels that you don’t always post to as a regular.
