Intro:

With only a couple of Q’s left in my Quarter Q the plan was to up the intensity and maybe, just maybe, have a little merlot splash. But it wasn’t to be. I’m convinced there is no workout that proves too much for the men of the F3.

Warm-o-Rama:

A somewhat extended mosey to get the blood flowing followed by: 12 SSH's, 10 Weed Pickers, Michael Phelps sobriety style, Sun God's sobriety style.

The Thang:

Head over to the hill for some chest and leg work. Each exercise followed by Bernie Sanders up the hill and run back down. 13 Stagger Merkins – 4 count, 15 Tony Hawk burpees, 20 American Hammers – 4 count, 12 Nipple Scratcher Merkins, 10 Dan Taylor's, 12 Finger-Tip merkins – 4 count, 30 Reverse Crunches, 10 Merkin Wipes.

Up the hill for Bear Crawl Ring of Fire (planks were brutal with 13 PAX).

Collect Pain Poles and gather at the bus lanes. Perform one exercise and run to the end of the bus lane for the next – always stopping in the middle for 15 Pain Pole Jacks. 20 Star Jumps, 20 Wide Merkins, 15 Mexican Jumping Bean squats, 15 Close Grip Merkins, 10 One-Leg Squats (each leg), 15 Military BBS's, 10 Wolverine Burpees.

COT:

Terrain race this weekend, Spartan race coming soon. Fleetwood's 50 Q HC for 3/19. The Bakery topic – book of James. Prayers for speedy Gonzales's aunt battling cancer and Ice T's aunt. Oliver's mom. Those impacted by this week's tornadoes.

Naked Man Moleskin:

It was great to have Pop-up (FNG from Saturday) post with us – in shorts no less. I was particularly encouraged by him. This was his second F3 workout and he was full out. He may have been in shorts but I noticed steam rolling off of him like his head was on fire during the bus lane routine. Solid work. Dizzy wasn't there but, Pie Bar got dizzy doing Tony Hawk burpees. Does that count?
