All I really wanna do is hang out but I still need to keep up appearances

AO: the-castle
Q: SalPal
PAX: Strutter, Splitter, Chunks, hambone, Pep
FNGs: None
COUNT: 6
CONDITIONS: Cold enough to fool some clowns into wearing caps.

WARMUP: F*ck that.

THE THANG: My wife had certain…. Expectations…. Around my return home this morning. But Castle Coffeteria ft. Pep was a highlight of my pre-2.1 days. So we had two options:

1. A more relaxed 45 minutes with lots of room for mumble chatter.
2. An aggressive 30ish minute beatdown that allows for more coffeteria but you might be coughing up blood.

We opted for the latter. Sets of EMOM burpees, sprints, ISO abs. It sucked.

MOLESKINE: Discussion on angsty bands, what constitutes an F3 workout, and Catholic perspectives on human sexuality.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Brewsday, AO School, TN Tussle.

COT: Careers for Pep, Chunks and Stutter.

Enjoyed the extra early coffeteria. Really grateful for this morning. In this season the 2nd F means a lot. Many thanks to Strutter for letting me bend the rules a little bit.

Work 40 seconds/Rest 20 seconds. 32 rounds (we stopped after 30 rounds for times sake). 4 rounds for each session
Jam Session 1: Shuttle run

The PAX formed F3’s first garage jam band. SalPal auditioned but didn’t make the cut. It actually worked out better because only 8 sessions were planned. The tunes were great but the fellowship was better. Enjoyed having Jude Judy from F3 St. Louis.

Photo cred to Puzzlah

THE THANG: – – Death by Burpees – –

YHC ran a 1 minute timer and every minute we performed 5 burpees. In between burpees a “resting” exercise was called to give a “break” between sets. Pax performed lunges, bear crawls, LT Dans, and various forms of merry.

Pax made it through 36 sets for a total of 180 burpees but felt called to beat the record I set at greenmachine last year. A final 21 were tagged at the end bringing the total count to 201 burpees.
