12 Days of Christmas

AO: handsomizer
Q: Wedding Singer
PAX: Umbrella, Purple Tiger, Wedding Singer, Salami, Freakonomics, bluemule, Natural Ice – CBO, Spinal Tap
FNGs: None
COUNT: 8
CONDITIONS: cool and crisp

WARMUP:
Disclaimer
Recognition of Umbrella, who allowed YHC to freely steal and modify (including the notable absence of even a single Michael Buble song on the playlist this time!) his long-standing tradition and recent beatdown at the-racetrack Mosey to the bottom of the steps

THE THANG:

12 Days of Christmas
Day 1 – 8 count Body Builder
Day 2 – Apollo Onos
Day 3 – Worst Merkin
Day 4 – Lt. Dan
Day 5 – Burpees
Day 6 – Storm squats
Day 7 – WWI or WWII
Day 8 – Windmill Merkins
Day 9 – Iron Mike’s
Day 10 – Makhtar N’Diayes
Day 11 – Mountain Climbers
Day 12 – V-Ups

The day corresponds with number of reps. Start on Day 1 and then run lap up the stairs and back down the ramp. Day 2 then 1, run. Day 3 then 2 then 1, run…until you finish or time. 2 is 1 for all applicable exercises. That fact, along with the long set of stairs and ramp back down proved to be too much for any of the PAX to complete the work, but several got to Day 10!

Mosey back to startex

MARY: n/a – called for time

ANNOUNCEMENTS: F3 Franklin 10-year anniversary beatdown Saturday 1/4 at Pinkerton Park – 0630

See elsewhere on Slack for deets about New Year’s Day convergence and Lean PAX

COT: Reminder that F3 is first and foremost a leadership organization. It is in our Mission statement

Always an honor to lead.

Ladder down as time allows
I think some PAX were motivated to surpass the bar set by Movin On Up when I led this first iteration on my 55th birthday on May 31st. I think he and a few others Works for a Guy Deep State EZ-Go and maybe more got through about 3 rungs back down the ladder before time was called. Strong work to all!

Store coupons (at least those that we didn’t crush to powder on our bare hands!

Mosey to wall for a short minute of Balls to the Wall

Final 2 minutes spent introducing folks at detention to the fun that is Guantanamo. Clearly a PAX favorite from all the mumblechatter as we made a full circuit.

MOLESKINE:
YHC would encourage everyone to take a few minutes to read the cliff/spark note about last week’s State of the Nation broadcast, or watch the full recording (even on fast speed if you’d like!)

F3 is a leadership organization, and we need to keep that at the front of our minds as continue to encourage, support and push each other. It’s not just about sweating together on the gloom, but it is about striving to become better HIM for each other, our families and community.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Free F3 Brentwood half marathon on 11/9. Hit up Ponzi for details

COT:
Thanks to Deep State for the kind invitation to join y’all, and thanks for welcoming me! I look forward to coming back again soon.

Stay strong and keep singing

Repeat, team with most victories puts the blocks away while everyone else does burpee apocalypse

Rinse & repeat

Finisher:
Burpee-apocalypse increasing to 10 (but I gifted the men a surprise set of 1 at the end instead of 10, so really we only went to 9)

MOLESKINE:
I enjoyed how the teams held themselves accountable. It was especially interesting to me how quickly people forget the community around them when they’re tired and doing something difficult. Points driven home: take care of each other, push yourself to work hard even when it’s easy to slack off
