23 eager pupils of the Gloom Grammar School posted in time for the bell to ring and begin another study on self discipline under the tutelage of the Great Teacher (Yahweh).

NMS:

  • A fine day to finish the DTH 1 year anniversary week of Q’s, and YHC would like to give a special shout-out to our class clowns – Wilson, Upchuck, Handshake, and Greenbow for their tireless efforts to keep YHC from taking himself (or the workout routines) too seriously. YHC has a weakness to overthink, try to control, or become too easily frustrated with himself or others when things aren’t going according to plan. DTH apologizes. We are all students of the Holy Spirit’s leading and brothers in arms – to grow stronger for one another and anyone else on our path. Stay thirsty my friends!

  1. Great workout this morning DTH, 8 count warmup routines are an inspiration and over multiple attempts will be mastered by the group. I track my workouts with my iWatch and we burned 790 calories today. Was glad to be part of the wrap up of your year anniversary week tour. Way to go everyone, see you in the gloom! CB

  2. Congratulations on 1 year DTH. I’m glad to be on the list of class clowns. You bring your own spin/flavor to traditional workouts. Keep up the great work.

  3. Sorry I missed it men.

    Your driving and also leaning leadership attitude is something for all of us to emulate – you are unafraid of trying something new and keeping what sticks.

    Leading men in workouts is one thing. Leading men in all aspects of F3 and being someone to emulate while nurturing other leaders is else something else altogether.

    Happy 1 year anniversary TH.

    Gitty up.

  4. No apology needed, but I receive it. Hahahaha..

    Love you brother, appreciate your leadership and push to bring our potential to the surface. Your getting Draper out there is how I found this group 51 weeks ago!! Appreciate that you were so excited about it from the start that you were asking DD and getting him to tell others about it!
    (Spoiler alert, my 1 year anniversary is Thursday at 45MOM.)

    Also, I agree with corned beef above, I was just telling you how i get ~550-600 calories on a bootcamp and ~750 on a run.. Today’s beatdown clocked in at 740 (!)

    Great job bringing it for this past year.. looking forward to many, many more!

  5. Congrats on a year! The class clowns helped to brighten the gloom for me. My favorite was “how do bears do this all the time?”

  6. Good workout and Q, gentlemen. Solid work today. Congratulations on the year, DTH (aka Dr. Ted Henderson). Way to jump in and make a commitment to yourself and to the group.

    YHC objects to being a clown – merely was informing a local preacher that his congregation might have been infested with marsupials and other vermin.

    Nice to partner with Bulkhead on the partner carry…Flipper is waiting for your call.
