4 men escaped the clutches of the fart sack to welcome the week on a beautiful fall morning.
COP: SSH, Russian soldiers, LBC’s, merkins, helicopters, DQ’s.
The thang
Mosey to hill on side of school, bear crawl up hill, exercise at top, crawl bear down hill, 20 LBC’s, repeat. Exercises at top were merkins, split jacks, and 2 count shoulder taps. Mosey to the track, do an exercise, run around the track, repeat. Exercises were boxcutters, elbow plank for 20 seconds, and Helix squats. Mosey back to parking lot, partner up. Timer does parking lot tracers, parter does dips, hand release merkins, and SSH’s. Stretching for last 3 minutes.
Numberama, namerama, YHC took us out.
NMS
Mumblechatter, as would be expected with Yardsale and Mudface on hand, was lively from COP through COT, including how Yardsale makes friends in the bathroom, what that could mean, including a reference to South Park and the inspiration for the title of this backblast. YHC loves the mumblechatter because it distracts from the pain or soreness of the work, and occasions laughter so hard at times you struggle to exercise!
During announcements YHC talked about accountability, personal and to the community. In this case YHC referenced the DaVille F3 community. Hard to put a timeframe on it, but for a while our numbers have been down at workouts. Looking at past backblasts it was common to have a minimum of 5-6 pax at a workout, but too often now we’re lucky to get 3, and frequently it is less. YHC is as guilty of this as anyone else, as my attendance has slacked off greatly in the past year, as has my effort at the workouts. F3 is SUPPOSED TO BE HARD, that’s how you improve, by pushing yourself past your limits to set new ones–the body should feel sore after a workout, otherwise it’s not much of a workout. Iron sharpens iron. YHC is challenging himself to show up at least 3x/week, put in maximum effort with each exercise and workout, and encourage his brothers to do the same. When out in the community, don’t let an EH opportunity pass by, try to give the gift of F3 to someone else each week, or month. I encourage each of you to think about what your goals are for F3 and push yourself to reach them. Know I will be there, encouraging you, and doing everything I can to reach mine.
