Date: 2026-04-09 AO: Atlantis Q: Puzzlah , Pole Dancer PAX: Pole Dancer, DintyMoore, SalPal, Toothless, Puzzlah, Squid (Boise, ID) FNGs: None COUNT: 7 CONDITIONS: Pristine
WARMUP: Dynamic
THE THANG: Our AOQ Pole Dancer set the stage with a taxing Dora of 50 Burpees, 100 Big Bois, 150 Merkins, 200 squats and 250 step-ups. Partners ran about 300 yards from the Pizza Hut around the parking lot. Woof. What a send off!
We then travelled down to the lower lot because what is Atlantis without some games.
The two former AOQs and the new AOQ teamed up to compete in a 3 v 3 tic tac toe game. 3 burpee buy-in Sprint 40 yards to the tic tac toe board Sprint back Next man up.
Non-running pax continued on a Thor ladder of 1 BBSU – 4 American Hammers (2-8, 3-12, etc.).
While the AOQs took the first game, they were easily defeated by stealth gamesmanship from Toothless, DintyMoore, and Squid.
MOLESKINE: :clap::clap::clap: to Pole Dancer for his leadership at Atlantis. His warm, welcoming demeanor, killer taste in music, dynamic physical abilities, and possession of the best ugly mug collection in town made Atlantis the place I kept coming back to every week and the place I want to see thrive.
Come visit us Under the Sea. :trident:

CONDITIONS: Cool but perfect.
WARMUP: SSH, LBAC, Overhead presses, Seal Claps, Moroccan Night Clubs, RLBACs, Squats, WMH and Good Mornings

#2 Unlucky :x: :four_leaf_clover:: Now the PAX with the lowest card goes, but has to do 5 burpees with each exercise lap

Gotta get your movement tracker started I guess . . . – SalPal was the dreaded Lucky HIM as he picked blockees more than once. He’s practically on vacation anyway. – Prayers for Title Max’s daughter, those traveling, our Muslim community members, and our leaders – Pep was most excited about Tom Petty’s entry on the playlist, singing aloud and recalling its post-apocalyptic music video. – 110% coffeeteria as Title Max joined us at Dose for CubCadet’s favorite $17 coffee.

Grow School! Emotional Headlocking

Date: 2026-03-14 AO: 1stf Q: Derby PAX: Juicy J, Shakira, Piglet, Hair Band, SalPal, Puzzlah, Salami, Squatter FNGs: None COUNT: 9 CONDITIONS: Perfect!
WARMUP: SSH, BACs, BACBACs, WMH, Runners Stretch, PE Stretch
Credo, Mission Statement, 5 Core Principals (Burpees/Merkins)
THE THANG: Starting w/ Merkins PAX then carries weight ~25 yards and back then adds in the following exercise and repeats until they’ve added all 5 exercises into a set. Once complete PAX knocks out 25 WWII’s then starts back at the top.
10 Merkins 10 SB Rows 10 SB Squats 10 SB Curl w/ Overhead Press 10 SB Burpees
After completing 3 Sets of the above, half of PAX held Planks while the other half carried weight to/from Stage (2x)
Ended w/ 25 Merkins to ensure we hit our Merkin Madness Quota for the day.
MOLESKINE: Challenged PAX to find a moment to be intentional and check in with significant other or someone close to them. Goal is to listen and provide emotional support as needed. I’ve personally lagged in this department as I’ve fallen into the typical male trap of fixing not listening which was all my M needed in the end.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Check Slack but to highlight a few: March Merkin Madness, f3nashville.slack.com/team/U06KPV4RRAT Murder Mystery, Chunks 50 Mile Relay, Wolfpack Holy Smokers, Juicy J Classic Downtown Marathon in the works
COT: Prayers for continued strength in relationships and f3nashville.slack.com/team/U020QR7192Q‘s EH discussion with PAX
PLAYLIST: Offspring Pandora!
Appreciate you all coming out to Bellevue and giving me the opportunity to lead! You all got after it today!
