Back 2 School!!!! :books:

AO: middle-tooth
Q: Toothless
PAX: DrRupp, Triple Pane, Cowboy, moneyshot, Pole Dancer, Cal Worthington, sooner, Hanes, Pollo Loco
FNGs: 1 Pollo Loco
COUNT: 10
CONDITIONS: Honestly, balmier than advertised. Cool breeze cut down significantly on what would have been a bona fide hot yoga session. Sunrise rivaled toratoratora to boot :sunrise:

PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/04KkhaUX0fj1nwynplCZMW?si=a37a6268af3c4544

WARMUP:
– 30 x SSH
– 10 x WMH (2 count)
– 10 x Windmills
– 15 x Overhead Claps
– 15 x Seal Claps
– 15 x Moroccan Night Clubs
– 15 x Imperial Walkers
– 5 x Scorpions, each side half

THE THANG: Back 2 School!! :books:

School Bus Route :bus: :octagonal_sign:
Start with a one-mile Indian run “school bus” around the perimeter. Every time the rotation completes the stop sign comes out and the PAX have to give 10 Prisoner Squats. After all, schools are basically prisons. Aim for 100+ squats, 10+ stops.

Route went southeast to the corner, northeast past the playground and then up behind the school. Continue to tennis courts and turn left to cut up through the middle of the AO past startex. Turn right at Lone Oak on the sidewalk and reenter the park on the small path. Turn right onto the main field path, make a full loop and return to started.

Core Subjects :male-teacher:
Split into 5 groups, post up at each station with 1 group running around the parking lot loop 2x. The other groups split up and go to 1 of 4 stations, performing an exercise until the runners return. Repeato with the timer group running 1 lap instead of 2.

English
– “Apart” vs “a part”
– Hello Dollys, spread those legs “apart”

Math
– Ratios, multiplication
– Captain Thors 1:4 ratio of Big Boy Sit-ups to American Hammers

Science
– Inertia
– J-Lo’s, it takes force to stop movement in a given direction

History
– First public school in the country predates the country’s founding
– Boston Latin School founded in 1635
– 1 Clerkin, 6 Supermans, 3 Peter Parkers, 5 Mountain Climbers

Once PAX complete each station and are back to their “homeroom”, they serve detention. Complete 20 burpees. SSH in silence to get out of detention, otherwise more burpees, repeat til successful.

MOLESKINE:
YHC was sucking wind after the bus route and appreciated the pace pushers who made it more of a challenge. The sunrise was so nice the Q called a Salute the Sunrise between the sets with a 10 burpee salute. As for detention, the PAX didn’t get out of detention immediately, but they were much more eager to avoid the burpees the second time and got out after only 2 rounds.

Also of note, sooner finally pulled a great name out of his hat and gets credit for Pollo Loco, who was a fantastic EH apparently by Michelin Man though the Mich himself was not in attendance :eyes:

YHC also brought some home-brewed Gatorade for coffeeteeria. If there was ever a morning for it, this was it, and it hit the spot as a preamble to sooner’s excellent carafe of bean juice.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– U-Haul themed workout this Saturday AM for Detective Pikachu
– brewsday next Tuesday @ 12S Taproom, 4:30p
– 10th Anniversary of F3 Nashville coming up on 9/13

COT:
Prayers for…
– Pole Dancer’s wife in the job search, turned out down, looking for the right fit
– sooner spoke for all parents & kids coming into the school year, prayers for a clean sheet for the rest of summer to start the school year off right
– YHC shared prayers for my wife with the due date 1 month away, prayers for a healthy full term baby and a smooth delivery

Men, Cal Worthington once again mentioned this may be his last week in Nashville, and while that may or may not be true, I do want to share a hearty thank you for the energy and camaraderie he’s brought during his extended time with us. Be sure to say thanks and send him off well throughout the week!

It’s always an honor to lead you men – thanks for an excellent morning, wouldn’t have wanted to spend it any other way!

Lots of Squats

AO: middle-tooth
Q: Young Pawn
PAX: Chunks, moneyshot, Bareback, Goose, Right Said, Detective Pikachu, Oatmeal, Rocket Mortgage, Cowboy, Toothless, Binki, Star Blade McCoy
FNGs: None
COUNT: 13
CONDITIONS: A little reprieve from the swampiness, somewhere around 75° :sunrise:

WARMUP:
Made a circle. PAX alternated doing 13 (or more…) squats and doing one of these exercises for a minute: arm circles, imperial walkers, pitcher’s stretch, lunges, reverse lunges, Bonnie Blairs, fire hydrants, donkey kicks (“the wrong way” says Cowboy, his way was better), mountain climbers, Lt. Dans, peoples chair, around the world lunges, and more squats. And we took turns planking during the exercises.

THE THANG:
>From home plate, one PAX pulls the Frisbee and bernies around the bases while the rest of the PAX play defense and try to tag him out. No running with the disc, no force outs, round as many bases as you can. Record was 5 bases (home run + single).

Closed with 5 minutes of Mary and stretching.

MOLESKIN:
:dagger_knife: Star Blade McCoy has only been posting for 2 weeks and is moving away in 6 weeks. A lesser man would’ve said “there’s no time to start something new.” Star Blade said “I’ll do the right thing right now” and found a group of other HIMs to make him better.

:man-lifting-weights: By my count, we did 2,532 squats altogether – including the 10 I gave DP for his sarcasm during the COT. Thanks Toothless for the coffee. Thanks Oatmeal for being AOQ and an encourager. Picture already posted above! :point_up_2:

Basically iiiPillars at Middletooth

AO: middle-tooth
Q: Focker
PAX: Black Lung, Betty Ford, Pep, Two Face, Harbaugh, Cowboy, moneyshot, Zelenskyy, High School Musical (DR), Formica
FNGs: None
COUNT: 11
CONDITIONS: Sunshine

WARMUP: Various stretches while waiting on Black Lung

THE THANG: This workout was designed around praying at Yuri’s house. He is a dear friend of moneyshot who is undergoing surgery today for pancreatic cancer.
-Run one mile to his home. Every turn we did 10 burpees, 15 dry docks, 10 lunges.
-Had the chance to pray over this family and their home with time for reflection
-Run one mile back with turn workouts being 10 jump squats, 15 diamond push ups, 20 monkey humpers
-upon arrival back to startex, we did 10 ww1 and 10 prisoner squats, then 20, then 40, then 23.6. These sets were broken up by sprints. Total of 93.6 for average number of days in the summer

MOLESKINE: somehow we ran uphill both ways, full light during the whole workout.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: brewsday coming up! 2.0 workout this Saturday! Reach out to Grape.

COT: Opened up about how my first reaction to Yuri’s house being a mile away was thoughts of inconvenience/not ideal for this workout. The Lord used this to convict me of my selfishness and allowed me to reflect on the importance of physical places in our life. There is a reason we visit our old homes, have memorials where things have happened, and worship at buildings. Being somewhere holds power cause we are physical beings. moneyshot thanks for the chance to come into Yuri’s life and y’all’s friendship this morning

The Legend of the Three-Toothed Dragon

Your party has answered the call to slay the dreaded Three-Toothed Dragon of Middle Tooth! You’ve assembled your team and made your way out into the wilderness. Your path takes you through the Forest of Sir Bearington, a sentient bear with no love for humans. The party druid disguises everyone as rabbits to help avoid detection. Broad jumps!

As you exit the woods, you discover… an angry treant! 15 Happy Crunchy Frogs! 5 Big Boy Situps!

You arrive to the entrance of the dragon’s lair; a group of hill giants block your way forward. You attempt to maneuver around and roll for Dexterity – 5 minutes of field sprints.

As you brave the cave, you stumble upon….a few goblins. 10 burpees!

You find yourselves at a dead end, but upon further inspection, discover it is a hidden door. But it requires magic to open. You choose: Knock – 15 Screamin’ Eagles.

Having gained passage, you slip into the grand throne of the Three-Toothed Dragon, named Murphy. You have the element of surprise, so you decide to: Leroy Jenkins his ass: Burpee-Broad Jumps

Bloodied and battered, Murphy seems to be defeated… but he suddenly re-emerges, resurrected as a dracolich! Bust out the Holy Hand Grenade of Lathander from your Bag of Holding and dust this clown. Dora, 50 Kraken Burpees

With a terrible roar, Murphy falls to the earth, a lifeless husk. You have managed to silence this terrible creature and recover the loot. You partner up to carry as much back together as you can: 10 Booyah Merkins, 10 Hi-Five Jump Squats, 5 sets

MOLESKINE: Way to push through the rain (or as we call it in Atlantis… well, we don’t call it anything, because we don’t notice, it’s just wet all the time).

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Lots of places opening up. Pull up challenge. moneyshot is new AOQ of Brewsday.

COT: Prayers for sooner and family navigating troubled waters laying a grandmother to rest. For my M looking for a job. All intentions unspoken.

Back to Startex for Mary – dealers choice of weapon (exercise) and proceed til time.

MOLESKINE:
On a particularly rainy morning, YHC was grateful for the 10 PAX who did not let the fartsack win them over and who came out to test their mettle.

I personally found the playlist invigorating, and while there was mumblechatter, I think all but 2 PAX held the full 4 minute plank! Excellent full body yells on brand from Young Pawn.

Considering the conditions, we stayed pretty dry all the way until Mary when Rocket Mortgage promptly had us down in the water for our first exercise. Thanks for that – made the coffee from sooner taste even better!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: So very many – please see -f3-nashville-general for the full list!

Additional announcement is that Oatmeal and sooner are taking their families camping this weekend to Montgomery Bell State Park, and there’s an open invite to others who want to go!

COT: YHC echoed the message in the pre-blast about the importance of AOQs in F3 and shared gratitude for the 5-6 current and previous AOQs we had around the circle. I reiterate that we want PAX to lead before they’re ready and to leave before their ready, and we are pushing to help that trend solidify.

Prayers shared for recent diagnosis, death of an extended family member, and for a tragic incident in another F3 region with an FNG collapsing & not making it. Will share more as that travels through the grapevine.

Thank you, HIM, for your effort today. May you be better for it!

As always, it’s an honor to lead.
