The majority of my musical teenage taste was focused on Rock and pretentiously seeking out Indie music. However my punk rock friends and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2 added a little SKA flavor to my Youth. After seeing this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4nKY1QfWvg about Bart SKA-mpson, I felt inspired to dig into the genre and torture the PAX with my findings.

CONDITIONS: Amazing Sunrise

WARMUP:
Mosey to the Stairs. PAX was informed that is the SKA man started yelling “Get it Up Get it Up Get it Up” we would have to stop what we are doing and run up the stairs…… spoiler alert that happened a few times.

SSH, LBAC, Seal Claps, Moroccan Night Clubs, OHP, Merkins
SKANKING – SKA version of an imperial walker – arms are more loose and your kind of hoping. Its a SKA thing…

THE THANG:
Stair Run Race in pairs
Crossed soccer field with 2 lunges and a burpee broad jump, returned by SKANKing
Stair Run
Short 1 minute tabata – Reverse Lunges, Merkins
Stair Run
Bear Crawl down the soccer Field
Stair Run
Slow Alabama Prom Dates, Freddy Merks and Supermans
Stair Run, and second stair run to get the speaker 🙂

MOLESKINE: Its ok to like Bad Music, Dont Yuk the Their Yum

AO: handsomizer
Q: Chunks
PAX: Grape, Red Skull, Blueliner, Spinal Tap, Natural Ice, Freakonomics, Salami, Old Maid, Cuban Missile, Frasier
FNGs: None
COUNT: 11
CONDITIONS:

WARMUP: Nah, Lets’ get into it.

THE THANG:
Divided PAX into two teams by counting off 1’s and 2’s. Didn’t think this would be that much of a struggle for the PAX, but it is Friday.

Each team grab a coupon and caboose is loose run passing the coupon to the back and sprint to the front.

Stopped at the back parking lot for the thang

I used the prompt “Create an F3 45 min workout where there are two teams and each team has 1 cinder block” to create the workout and I think it delivered

Station 1: Relay Run (5 minutes)
– Teams line up at the starting point.
– One member from each team runs to a designated point (50 yards) carrying the cinder block, drops the block, and runs back to tag the next team member.
– The next member runs to the block, picks it up, and returns to the start line.
Station 2: Block Exercises (10 minutes)
– Each team performs the following exercises with the cinder block. Teams rotate after each member completes their set.
1. Cinder Block Squats (10 reps per member)
2. Cinder Block Overhead Press (10 reps per member)
3. Cinder Block Curls (10 reps per member)
4. Cinder Block Tricep Extensions (10 reps per member)
Station 3: Team Circuit (10 minutes)
– One team member performs the exercise with the cinder block while the rest of the team does a bodyweight exercise. Rotate after each member completes their block exercise.
1. Cinder Block Thrusters (10 reps) – Rest of the team does Plank
2. Cinder Block Lunges (5 reps each leg) – Rest of the team does Mountain Climbers
3. Cinder Block Rows (10 reps each arm) – Rest of the team does Flutter Kicks
4. Cinder Block Russian Twists (20 reps) – Rest of the team does Burpees
Station 4: Block Carry Relay (10 minutes)
– Teams line up and each member takes turns carrying the cinder block around a 100-yard loop.
– While one member is running with the block, the rest of the team is doing continuous exercises:
1. Round 1: Merkins (Push-Ups)
2. Round 2: Squats
3. Round 3: Plank
4. Round 4: LBCs (Little Baby Crunches)

PAX did some laps with sprints between each station.

Made our way back to Startex with the coupons, but set them down and did another sprint to the finish.

Ended with about 3 mins of Mary
MOLESKINE: :
Always and honor to lead you men.
COT:
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads
Congrats to Frasier for a big week last week
Sign up for the 5k on July 27th at this illustrious AO.

Till next time. Strength and Honor

My Eras Tour

AO: titan
Q: Puzzlah
PAX: DintyMoore, Spinal Tap, Old Maid, Tim the Toolman, Salami, SalPal, Michelin Man, Elmer (DR from Raleigh), Escobar (DR)
FNGs: None
COUNT: 10
CONDITIONS: Reminiscent of the glory years

WARMUP: Mosey around the park. Stretch: World’s Greatest Stretch, Calves.

THE THANG:
My eras were an attempt at 4 decades of fitness, so 4 sets of workouts that were organized around my athletic endeavors of hockey, basketball through high school, football through college, Rugby through my 20s, and a classic F3 dora that got edited for time. I would have incorporated a lot more sprinting (suicides, 55s, etc.), but I have been working through some foot pain (Thanks to Spinal Tap for the recs that I will try out).

Hockey/Plyometric station:
– Broad Jump
– Speed hop
– skaters
– skaters with a pause
– launch off one leg into a sprint

Basketball/Lower Body station:
4 rdsx10 reps each of:
– Air Dramas (Squat then extend up onto your toes)
– Hold squat shoulder circuit (Palloff press)
– Iron Mikes
– Tuck Jumps

Football/Full Body:
38 Up Downs going around the circle like Dan Campbell in that Hard Knocks episode.

Rugby-ish:
4 rds of:
– Bear crawl 10 m
– 10 Dancing Bears
– 10 Merkins
– Sprint Back 10 M

F3 pivot to a few rounds of partner lateral runs 20 m, while partner does plank shoulder taps, then Freddie Mercuries, then SSHs. Not quite enough time for a Dora.

about 8 minutes of Mary back at the flag.

Described some of the srummaging techniques that I pivoted away from during coffee that I will come back to in the future after some encouragement.

MOLESKINE:
As I was looking at the environs on Google Maps to plan out the Q, I noticed that the landmark that our alphabet overlords highlight is the Taylor Swift Bench. I didn’t know it was there and didn’t bother to seek it out, but modern stardom, longevity, and fandom/activism were discussed. A bird that had seen better days awaited us where I put down cones to warn us of what was to come.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
2.0s welcome at bomber on 6/14
Salami Dash at the Castle 5k that includes tickets to future Nashville SC game
f3nashville.slack.com/archives/C3MSWGATT/p1718203308939989
COT: Prayers for travel, discretion with new work opportunities, and Pep DR in San Francisco.

Appreciated this fine group of HIMs for my first Q at Titan working through some beginner’s trudge.

Salute to Lt. Dan

AO: westeros
Q: Toothless
PAX: Vector, Tim the Toolman, bluemule, Spinal Tap, Natural Ice, Andrew Flood, DintyMoore, Breadsticks, Salami, hambone, Chunks, Pep, Michelin Man, Siri, Solo Cup, caprate, Cheech, Hot Wax, Jockey, Hedwig, Underage
FNGs: 2 Hedwig, Underage
COUNT: 21
CONDITIONS: Sublime overcast morning, light mist from the field sprinklers

WARMUP:
20 x SSH
12 x Willy Mays Hays, 2 each side
30 count x toe touch
30 count x flamingo, both sides
1/2 mile light mosey around park perimeter

THE THANG: Four Corner Dora
Partner travels around 4 corners with a mosey/shuffle/bernie/shuffle per the 4 sides

PAX wait for 6 to rotate (low plank/pick up reps), Lt. Dans to rotate between each station

Corner One: 50 Iron Mikes (2 ct)
Corner Two: 100 Jump Squats
Corner Three: 200 Bonnie Blairs (2 ct)
Corner Four: 400 Side Straddle Hops

Wrapped with some prisoner squats, reverse lunges, star jumps, and sprinters stretch to bring us to time.

MOLESKINE:
PAX were surprisingly good natured about the exercises, but the conditions were just right and the group energy was high so I think we all felt a lift from the good vibes. Stereotypical rock playlist did not distract from the chatter but gave rhythm to the calisthenics.

It was an honor to have men from the Asgard region in town as well as Jockey from across the pond! Also had two FNGs from DintyMoore, great to meet them and welcome them in to this crazy thing we do.

Coffee at Dose was exceptional, took over the whole cafe & got a little rowdy. :coffee:

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– may-you-pull-up continues, never too late to join!
– Fresh cohort for thestronghold starts this Thursday

COT:
YHC had an injured wrist, hence the leg day, so my message was for the PAX to appreciate the health we all had that allowed us to get up and get out to a workout, and to not take what isn’t promised for granted.

Prayers for Siri with summer childcare, Pep with his current project at work, and FNG Hedwig for job prospects.

As always, it was an honor to lead, men!
