The Thang

The emotion and joy in which YHC feels writing this Backblast is simply indescribable.  We launched a new AO exactly one day before my one year anniversary with F3…16 men showed up and showed out to help launch this AO with some driving 40-45 minutes to get there.  Plenty of our guys here in F3 Chatt understand and carry out true commitment!

As The Huey launches, and our banner location (Hill City) changes hands from a proven “pick up the slack” amazing leader to another progressive, strong HIM, I see F3 moving in the direction it should. We don’t leave men under lamp posts alone and we continually advance while leaving no men behind and absolutely none where we found them.

We are on the verge at The Huey. We have taken a little step back in our attendance, but we are almost ready to launch, so if you’re ready to lead, then step up.  Soft launch is less than 2 weeks away!

You have to own it to buy into it.  Yes, that seems backward to some, but is it really?  If we do not take ownership of things that we call important, than we never really buy into it properly.

The Thang

Title of exercises or routine
Pax grabbed a partner.  Pax 1 completed Colt 45 while Pax 2 help plank.  Flap Jack. Rinse and Repeat.
Mosey a lap around the park.  Pax completed descending squats from 10 at each light pole. 55  total squats.
In a small tribute to Iwo Jima, YHC had the Pax Block Bear Crawl from the Startex, past The Huey, to the Giant American Flag.  Let’s be honest, if those men can raise that flag, in the sand, in the coast driven wind, under heavy gunfire, then we can do Block Bear Crawls for 75 yards!!Once we made it to the destination we partnered up.  Pax 1 held a coupon in the front raise position while Pax 2 completed 20 WWII Sit-Ups.  FlapJack. Rinse and Repeat.
Mosey back to typical Startex. Pax completed Elevens with suicides (thanks Ohms for the idea). Run to halfway. Back. Complete 10 shoulder presses. Run to the other end. Back to halfway. Back to opposite end. Complete 1 Don’t Cross Dolly (again, thanks Ohms for the idea).
Pax finished just in time.  YHC had a quick moleskin. Bus duty calls again! Hey, it is the LAST week; because, you all know now, us teachers do not work in the summertime.

Moleskin

YHC called an early workout due to bus duty, and in a stroke of irony, YHC was late due to unforeseen circumstances.  As should happen and expected in F3, plenty of mumblechatter arose about the tardiness of the Q. The moral of is simply this: we all get to an exhaustion point, Smartsacks are required for every Pax, BUT the current leaders do not have the luxury of a nice, solid Smartsack in the absence of leadership or waning of the current leadership.  If you feel led to step up, then do it!

The Thang

YHC decided a smartsack was much needed but alas, HCs were there and no man should stand under the lamp post alone.  However, with some injury, YHC decided to invoke the “unofficial AO” rule and call an audible to bootcamp.  We decided to do something a bit different…
Any Pax involved in the Cam Run last year knows about Cameron Bean, his story, and the machine he was.  His lived by the creedos/mottos “Just Go for a Run” and “Do You Want to be Good or Do You Want to be Great?!”
Just Go For a Run
2 Mile Run
Back to the Park. Mosey Laps. At the completion of each lap do the following exercises
Plank x 20 IC
Don’t Cross Dolly x 20 IC
Total Distance Covered 3.25 Miles

Moleskin

YHC was very appreciative of all the Pax that attended this morning.  As we are taking flight at The Huey, we currently only have a single consistent Q.  The body needs rest, but the will to help others often overcomes the fartsack or smartsack as was the case today.  Therefore, we did some recovery running and core work.  Thanks to the men that stay committed.

The Thang

YHC was not looking for a catchy title but apparently planned a beat down that inspired one from fellow, hard working Pax, Duck Tails.  So, to the “Prison Yard” it was
Prison Yard
Station One
Pax 1 mosey to the first light pole, sprinted to the next, and moseyed to the 3rd light pole, completed 5 BBSU, and returned to Pax with the same procedure.
Pax 2 completed rotor pulls over the swing set bar until Pax 1 returned.  (To my Griff Pax yesterday, the friction is indeed real and made a huge difference today).
Flapjack. Rinse and Repeat until 15 BBSU were completed.
 
Station 2
Pax 1 mosey to the first light pole, sprinted to the next, and moseyed to the 3rd light pole, completed 5 BBSU, and returned to Pax with the same procedure.
Pax 2 completed a 5 shrug/5 shoulder press combo with coupons until Pax 1 returned.
Flapjack. Rinse and Repeat until 15 BBSU were completed.
 
Station 3
Pax 1 mosey to the first light pole, sprinted to the next, and moseyed to the 3rd light pole, completed 5 BBSU, and returned to Pax with the same procedure.
Pax 2 completed “15s” or curl sets consisting of 5 half way up, 5 half way down, and 5 full, concentration curls until Pax 1 returned.
Flapjack. Rinse and Repeat until 15 BBSU were completed.
 
Mosey back to the Startex.  Hold plank, in cadence (led by Duck Tails), until time was called….(exercises completed with coupons on our backs)

Moleskin

When YHC gives a moleskin the inspiration usually develops from a Biblical inspiration or something revolving around love/commitment.  Today’s moleskin comes from more inspiration revolving around commitment.
First, be committed to the task at hand, and if you cannot be committed, then be a man and admit it.  Excuses are not necessary (too busy, family time, early, distance, zealots in the group, “I can’t just quit the gym etc..), but show respect to those around you by admitting you’re overloaded and dial it back.  This “being a man” about it is MUCH more respectful than leaving cliff hangers as to whether you will attend the Gloom.
Second, if in life you have priorities that are very important to you (for YHC it goes: God, Family, Friends/Job, and F3).  F3 makes me better, makes me stronger, makes me more confident, and helps with my accountability but will NEVER take precedence over the first three priorities.
ALL THAT being said: if you have an opportunity in your life, such as F3, it makes you better, and does not negatively affect those main priorities, then why not give it a shot and/or return to the Gloom on a regular basis.
Lastly, my greatest hope for this Moleskin is that; I am not “preaching to the choir”.  YHC hopes some man, built for leadership reads this and thinks “good point, I’ll see you in the Gloom with a Down Painment”
