What’s that?  2 of the PAX tried to sign up to Q at the same time?  Imagine that……great problem to have.  Thanks Flanksteak for allowing me to take today.  With no plan just 18 hours prior to today’s workout, YHC thought about an old Mark Chesnutt song, ‘I’ll think of something’.  I think the PAX enjoyed.

Great work this morning, certainly nice to have a break from the heat.  Sign up to Q, you don’t have to have an elaborate plan, just think of something and do it.

5 brave souls posted for a repeat of Meatloaf’s Massacre.  Here’s why we are gluttons for punishment.

Mary

  • Neck stretches – likely to never be done again
  • Large Sun Gods IC X 10 F/R
  • Cotton Carrot Pickers IC X 10
  • Downward Dog calf stretches

Mosey to track where cinder blocks awaited, 14 of them to be exact – you never know how many will post for the Bear.

Thang

A repeat of the Iron Pax Challenge that I said after Thursday I’d never do again.  Never say never, or never say what you won’t do.  All exercises done with cinder block.

  • 10 Man Makers
  • 20 Overhead presses
  • 30 Kettle Bell Swings
  • 40 Goblin Squats
  • 50 Block Irkins

All of this followed by 4 laps around track.  Repeat exercises, 3 laps.  Repeat exercises, 2 laps.  Repeat exercises, 1 lap.

Mary

No time or energy for it, so we carried blocks to the road for pick up.

Excellent work this morning.  All PAX completed the challenge in less than 53 minutes.

Announcements – Mr. Roboto: This weekend marks 3 years of F3 in New Bern.  Because of F3, we’re out here doing some strange things that at times really suck, but they would suck more if done alone.  And, it makes us better.

Well said, and thanks for providing the blocks yet again.

Like having children, it’s hard to imagine what YHC did before joining this great group of men for beatdowns multiple times a week.

YHC closed in prayer, very thankful for F3.

Don’t be a LTO.  McRib out!
