“30” of us posted at the Alamo for VQ Week kickoff (earning a $500 donation to Team Bright Side). After a mosey and brief warm up we headed for the fresh blacktop, stopping at each intersection and doing 2 Burpees. Once we got to destination we split in to two teams and did a progressive buildup. Run to the nearest intersection and perform exercise, run back and do the previous exercise plus another one. Rinse and repeat. The exercises were as follows: 5 WWII… 5 WWIIs + 10 Drydocks… 5 WWIIs + 10 Drydocks + 15 Copperhead Squats… 5 WWIIs…

  • The PAX: Senior Frog, Hitchhiker, Oyster, NTB, Bootleg, Heist, Upchuck, EF Hutton, Mr. Rogers, Purple Rain, House Party, Fergie

11 men emerged from the gloom to see what F3RVA’s youngest regular had to show for 1 full year of F3 workouts. Fortunately for these men, they were spared from burpees and a world-famous Fergie rendition of the National Anthem. According to the watchful Owl perched by the Carillion, here’s what went down: COP Mosey to the circle and complete two laps around it. Circle up and do: SSH x 15 Ukrainian Solider x 10 Don Q x 10 Copperhead Squat x 10 WW2 x 15 Heels to Heaven x 20 LBC x 15 Alabama Prom Date x 10 Merkin…

YHC has taken his time to get to this point but it was my time to lead the PAX. Ready or not. 12 PAX including 3 FNGs joined us for the evening VQ. Heading into parking lot traffic we detoured to our first stop in the North Lot. Introductions, and then settles some nerves while doing Arm Circles, Ukrainian Soldiers, Alabama Prom Dates and LBCs. Time to avoid more parking lot traffic… COT #1: 11s around the North Islands. Cut Through if needed to keep up with the PAX. Hand Release Merkins paired with Squat Jumps. COT #2: Mosey to…

Audible: A VQ Story Excellent showing of 21 and 1 FNG at The Alamo this morning to get after it for my VQ. I’d wager it would have been 20 and 1 FNG had I not bribed Hardywood with breakfast following EF Hutton’s beat down on Saturday at DogPile. Calls for ‘audible’ were heard throughout 11s @ Horseshoe and rumors have it that it was the boys from north of the river, however we’ll never know for sure… Unfortunately for them, I’m not a football guy despite my Texas upbringing, so we carried on to complete the set. No audibles…

Wow! What an incredible showing by F3 RVA for the Love for Liv workout at The Alamo on this beautiful morning. Fall was in the air for 77 in total including Ms and 2.0s, 59 F3 Guys which included 5 FNGs. The 2nd F of F3 – Fellowship, shined bright as we lifted Yeehaw, Liv (his daughter who is battling illness) and the entire Schroepfer family up. Liv is truly a fighter and the PAX showed up strong today in support of her fight. Here is how it went down: Warm up mosey to the cul-de-sac with return to the…

Nineteen stallions came out of their RVA stables this morning to see what the youngster had in store for his VQ. The forecast was 70 and Sunny with humidity cranked up to 110%. Little did YHC know that time moves very slowly when you grab the Q, so a beatdown breakfast quickly became a large beatdown buffet. According to the one bike rider wearing glow sticks, the following may have happened: WARMARAMA: Mosey through the woods 1/4 mile. YHC admittedly missed the turn for the pickleball parking lot on the back of the park, so with pickleball no longer an…

After shooting awake at 2:45am – YHC was too excited about the forthcoming (VQ) beatdown to sleep. Lucky for the PAX, that allowed some time for fresh brewed coffee prep, to be enjoyed post workout. 16 PAX stumbled and bumbled through the thick morning gloom for a Cindy-filled beatdown with plenty of Satan’s Hill mixed in. Heist creeped up through the woods, which was weird, but he brought a diesel jacked FNG (more on him later), so that made it okay.
