  • Stormed the Knoll

    The Scene:  The Knoll

    Conditions: Ominous.

    Welcome

    Disclaimer

    Warm-a-Rama:

    Seeing how the convergence on the North Shore was taking place at the same time, the JV team stayed back and “Stormed the Knoll.”

    • Capri Lap – a little mosey.
    • SSH – 10x
    • Al Gores – 10X.
    • Merkins – 10x
    • Goofball – 10x
    • Burpees – 5

    The Thang: 

    With Tornado warnings out, we thought it would be a good idea to workout together in an open park.  And because we’re men, and this is the USA, we did.  It went like this:

    The PAX moseyed to sundial. Formed circle and performed a little arm and leg circuit.

    • 20 Merkins
    • 12 Freak Nastys
    • 20 Incline Merkins
    • 12 Freak Nastys
    • 20 Derkins
    • 10 Freak Nastys
    • 30 Al Gores
    • 30 Lunges
    • 20 Step-ups
    • 20 Box jumps

    We then went on a little mosey.  But ended back at the sundial (easier access to shelter).

    We then did my favorite.  Partnered up and did Col Trautman.  One partner runs from sundial to pull-up bars and does 5. While the other did AMRAP of the following:

    A – Arms – Freak Nastys

    L – Legs – Al Gores

    A – Abs – LBCs

    M – M workout – Merkins

    P – P workout – Planks

    We then did a couple group exercises. We broke the field into thirds and did the following:

    1. Tunnel of Love – with only 5 PAX, this was a lot of crawling.
    2. Plank Snake – a lot of running.
    3. Bridge of Hate – So this was a new one. We all laid on our backs side by side. One person then laid down (backwards… which is important… like a trust fall) and then gets passed along by the PAX. Like crowd surfing.  Dagwood was first one up. Long story short, this ended quickly and Dagwood may have been violated. We do hope he shows up again and doesn’t press charges.

    Mary:

    With the ominous clouds still a brewing, we did our Marys:

    • LBCs 20x
    • Jane Fondas – 10x each leg
    • Leg Lifts
    • American Hammers

    Coffeeteria:

    We ordered our food and coffee. Shangeaux showed up to fellowship. Then those ominous clouds broke loose. The electricity went out (as a tornado touched down about 2 miles away). The millennial baristas were frazzled. They closed the store and went into the back of store to take cover. But the PAX stayed in the cafe, sipping our coffee, and talking about life.  Shangeaux gave some nice advice on parenting, and also explained to us how he has the best job. Ask him about it. Power came on.  Back to being men, serving our homes and community.

     

     

     

     

  • Carpe Diem Convergence

    The F3 Nation knew about YHC before YHC knew about the F3 Nation.  You see, YHC’s brother-in-law, Lynchpin, lives in Charlotte.  In the early days, before the F3 Nation planted its flag in NOLA, Lynchpin routinely and enthusiastically regaled YHC with stories of legendary beatdowns and CSAUPs, tongue in cheek nicknames, funny exercise names and other F3 lore.  Then, when F3 decided to expand to NOLA, Lynchpin tried to EH YHC, but YHC begged off.  It all sounded, well to be honest, like a cult and how could YHC trust Lynchpin anyway?  After all, he married YHC’s sister.  Ugh.  But resistance was futile.  The NOLA PAX crossed Lake Pontchartrain in its Durham boat, Reluctant Yankee at the helm like George Washington crossing the Delaware. Nacho and Chewy fell in upon the PAX’s arrival and, together, they planted the shovel flag in the Gloom on April 9, 2016.  F3 Northshore was born.  How could YHC resist a free workout in his own backyard?

    A few weeks later, the NOLA PAX boarded their Durham boat and retreated back across the Lake, leaving the Northshore PAX to make the most of their gift of F3.  We stumbled about, we made mistakes, we created a new AO only to abandon it a few weeks later, and we had more than a few beatdowns with one or two PAX.  Somehow, however, we made it and two years later look forward to seeing one another regularly to suffer and have fun together.

    As this morning’s two year anniversary convergence approached and YHC learned that the weather more likely than not would be awful, there was no concern.  Two years of meeting rain or shine, hot or cold, left no doubt in YHC’s mind that the PAX would post.  And post they did.  And you know what?  The weather held off just long enough for us to celebrate our birthday with a 3 hour beatdown, visiting 5 of 6 Northshore AOs by the mechanical device known as the bicycle.

    Mandeville Lakefront:  4 burpees OYO, 19 SSHs IC, 20 IWs IC, and 16 Seal Jacks IC.

    Captain’s Cove:  4 vertical jumps OYO, 19 Copperhead Squats IC, 20 Sumo Squats IC, and 16 Regular Squats IC.

    Milestone Marsh: 4 plyo Merkins OYO, 19 Merkins IC, 20 Shoulder Taps IC, 16 slow seconds Mission Impossible.

    At this point, Chewy politely pointed out that he had figured out what YHC was up to with the count but that our birthday is April 9, 2016, not April 19, 2016.  Point well taken.

    Grandmother’s House:  4 Sister Mary Katherine’s OYO, 9 front to back lunges IC, 20 45 degree lunges IC, and 16 later lunges IC.

    And then, after a 10 mile mosey on the Tammany Trace to Covington:

    The Gipper:  4 Freddy Mercury’s IC, 9 Freddy Flutters IC, 20 Hello Dolly’s IC, and 16 Flutter Kicks IC.

    Then we mounted our bikes for the 10 mile ride back to the shovel flag for the countorama, nameorama, Shooter’s prayer and a coffeeteria, arriving about an hour later than anticipated.  No one will confuse YHC for a Swiss train conductor after this morning’s logistics, that’s for sure.

    Thanks for letting me lead, guys, and thanks for your willingness to try something different and new and for posting despite the threatening weather and actually being disappointed it didn’t pour on us.

    Some parting thoughts:

    We’ve come a long way on the Northshore.  Things have become almost comfortable and, while there’s a lot of positive to that sentiment, there are dangers too.  We could stop growing.

    So here’s a call to action.  Commit to EH’ing more FNGs and supporting them through their virgin post so that they return.  Commit to Q’ing more workouts, putting time into planning your Qs, and posting timely BackBlasts.  Commit to a CSAUP.  Commit to making yourself better and leading by example, always keeping your eyes open for growth and leadership in all three of the Fs.  If we want F3 Northshore to grow, then we are the ones that need to make it happen.

    Carpe Diem.

     

     

     

     

  • F3 Northshore 2nd Anniversary Convergence Pre-Blast

    Come one, come all…the F3 Northshore 2nd Anniversary Convergence is this Saturday, April 14th.  We will meet on the Mandeville Lakefront at 0630 as always and employ the use of mechanical devices knows as “bicycles” to visit all of the Northshore AOs for some birthday beat down action.  Please bring your bike if possible.  If you don’t have one, don’t worry.  We’ve arranged for some extras.  YHC just needs a head count if possible so reach out via DM on Group Me or via text at 985-630-8463 to reserve your wheels.  The Plan is to be back on the Lakefront for our coffeeteria by 0830.  Will everything go according to The Plan?  Probably not, but you’ll have to post to find out.  See you in the Gloom.

  • Soggy Bottom Boys at The Knoll

    Conditions: Mild temperatures, Wet, Damp, Humid, overcast. Although the rain stopped there was plenty of standing water so we could get our shoes and backsides soaked.

    ***Great post exercise story below too.  One new FNG on the way!***

      

     

    After getting over our disappointment that the rain had stopped we moseyed to the sundial for warmups consisting of Abe Vigodas, Austin Ass Kickers, 21’s and Bat Wings

    Following warm ups, we descended the Knoll to come up the other side doing lunges. The purpose of the lunges was to make the group look like Zombies from the Walking Dead. It worked.

    Assembling on the rugby pitch for Bearway to Heaven with Merkin Ladder, Q neglected to instruct the PAX to do a bear crawl between Burpee and Merkin intervals so the group just ran the first set. Rocket and Yes Dear were going fast and appearing to enjoy it so bear crawl requirement was reinstated for subsequent sets.

    Captain Thor Big Boy Sit Ups were next followed by a mosey down the Knoll so we could run up backwards 5 times doing the Bernie Sanders. Bern set in after rep 2

    Next, we moseyed to a spot with adequate mud and water for the Crunchy Frog exercise. Q’s cadence at this point sounded like a frog.

    Ending with an All You Got Run showed we had left it all somewhere back on the field with Moneycat’s car keys.

     

    Add-on by Worms:

    In the rain, lakes and mud Moneycat’s key fob fell out of his zipped jacket pocket somehow.  Most of the Pax had already left but the few remaining, Snackpack, Two-Shoes, Moneycat and Worms searched every inch of the park where we travelled and especially where he’d laid his jacket that morning but no luck. We called a known auto locksmith, Tigers Locksmith,  (an on-the-road key programming shop) but he wasn’t answering at the moment so I left a message.  We then called Popalock and they had someone on the way.   Then the Tiger Locksmith called back and said that “if you don’t have the fob then you still can’t start that car without the fob and the key”.   Fooey.    So I called the Popalock and said not to bother coming since Popalock could only open the car door to get Moneycat’s key but he’d still be stuck there since it was the key fob somewhere out there in those 96 acres of grassy knoll.   Popalock asked about the kind of car so they knew that but they failed to tell us that their guy could only get into the car and could not give him a way to drive the car.  I told Moneycat that we were not going to push him home while his engine was off and his transmission in park.  If it was in neutral I’m sure the 3 of us could grab that rear bumper and push Moneycat home since its only 12 miles to his home, but not with the wheels locked. I said no way.   So Drew of Tiger Locksmith showed up and he and Moneycat had a great time.  Turns out Drew Mulvanah is a Brother and is from New Zealand and he is very interested in F3.   He’s supposed to post with us soon!  Good work Moneycat for EHing the new man!  What a way to make friends other than over a beer!

  • Morning Miracle at the Colosseum

    The Scene: The Colosseum

    Conditions: Balmy.  Rainy.  Ample Puddles…..  Just Right.

    Welcome & Disclaimer:  The Q is neither bonded nor insured.  But no FNGs today, so we all knew the drill.

    Warm-a-Rama:

    Mosey twice around the parking lot  (a chance to chat and see how everyone is doing)

    Shoulder circles (lest our shoulders should atrophy)  x30 each direction

    Frankensteins (to stretch out those hamstrings)  x20

    Imperial Squat Walkers (using the big muscles to get the blood flowing)  x15, 4-count

    Windmills (hammies again, and backs)  x10

    SSH (cuz we like ’em)  x20

    The Thang:

    Partner Pullup Nasties: 5 pullups each, with help from partner as necessary; then mosey to the parking bars for 10 freak nasties; then mosey back. 3 sets.  (working on those arms)  Great teamwork!

    Gladiator Mosey:  1.5 laps around our beloved Colosseum, ending at the steps by the Gym.  A longer mosey than we’re used to – definitely saw some perseverance here – really nice work.  As usual, MegaDad sets a high bar and got to plank for the Six longer than the rest of us.  And I had a chance to chat it up with Big Easy whom I hadn’t met before.

    Baby Freak Nasties on the steps.  x10.

    Partner Windmill Pushups:  one partner on top of stairs; the other at bottom.  5 windmill pushups (4 count), then change places.  3 sets.  A bit of grunting and swearing.

    Catch Me If You Can:  Mosey back to the Shovel flag, with the last man sprinting (um, sometimes) to the front.  Lots of mutual encouragement on this part.

    Freak Nasties x10 on the parking bars to wrap it up.

    6MOM  (listen for the midwife noises)

    Since we were already soaked from the rain, no one minded getting just a bit wetter on their sixes….

    Homer to Marge (one of my favorites)  x10

    Reverse Crunches  x10

    Bicycles x10

    Jane Fondas x20 each side   (amid a few tears for Rocket, who was strangely absent)

    Then we were supposed to do some Manatee, but my notes were too wet to read by this time.  So I’ll save it for another day.  And Workhorse saved us by suggesting

    American Hammers, to close it out with a bang… banging our knuckles on the ground on each side.

    Count-O-Rama:  8 men.  A strong Wednesday.

    COT:  A strong closing in prayer by MegaDad.

    Oh, and the title of this post?  The MIRACLE of seeing MegaDad at 5:30am on a Wednesday!  Nice job making it out there, despite a late night of fellowship with the extended family.

     

  • The Sultan of Squat

    The Scene: The Knoll

    Conditions: Cool. Calm. Swampy.

    Welcome

    Disclaimer

    Warm-a-Rama:

    Prior to starting, we had a couple PAX with some interesting items: Money Cat with a Chocolate syrup bottle and Missile Toes with Rotating Push-up Bars. But, whatever, it was 0700, so we just got started. We did a little mosey and ended at some random spot in the grass. Then did the following to get ready for the big game:

    · SSH – 20x

    · Goofball- 15x

    · Bobby Hurley’s – 15x

    · Merkins – 15x

    · Al Gores – 15x

    · Burpees – 6

    We then ran backwards to sundial. Not sure why we ran backwards, but we did.

    The Thang:

    MLB’s Opening Day was this past Thursday. Seeing how Baseball is America’s pastime, we had to celebrate accordingly.

    1. Hit For the Cycle – We got into a circle at the Sundial, and started our attempt to hit for the cycle. Twice.

    · Slowjangle Biscuit (lunges in a circle) – 40x. This was our Homerun.

    · Al Gores – 30x. Triple. My legs and the fellas were mad at me. Dagwood feared I was broken and just stuck on repeat cause I just kept counting and counting and counting.

    · Merkins – 20x. Our double.

    · Freak Nastys. – 10x Our single.

    · Burpees – 5x. This has nothing to do with the cycle or baseball. But we did it just because.

    · Freak Nastys – 10x

    · Merkins – 20x

    · Al Gores – 30x.

    · Slowjangle Biscuit – 40x. At around 28, Shangeaux threw is glove at me in protest and in anger. Typical soccer player.

    2. Foul Poles – We then mosey’d across Highland Road to the baseball fields. We partnered up. One partner jogged around the fence (well, where we would assume a fence would be) from foul pole to foul pole (well, where we would assume a foul pole would be), and then sprinted back, across the outfield back to beginning foul pole. Other partner did AMRAP of assigned exercise. We did this 5 times, while doing merkins, Al Gores, LBCs, Merkins, Al Gores. We found out pretty quickly this field doesn’t drain well, and that most of the PAX aren’t baseball fans. It was a sad moment. So, I encouraged everyone to watch the Sandlot.

    3. Curse of the Bambino– We then ran to home plate. We circled up and planked, while one partner ran around the bases (well, where we would assume bases would be) for a Homerun. Once he made it home, we all did 1 merkin together. Then next guy ran, and then we did 2 merkins together. We worked our way up until we all hit a Homerun. YHC failed to tell everyone the goal was an inside-the-park homerun. So, Worms started us off with a nice Homerun trot that would make The Great Bambino proud. Dagwood got the memo and showed us his speed and slid into home plate. Unfortunately, he wasted his life playing soccer. Money Cat did swing his Choclate Syrup Bottle, which ended up being his water bottle for the day, and Missle Toes did use his push-up bars for all merkins, which is amazing.

    Mary:

    We mosey’d back to some random spot in the grass near the flag. We each led a Mary.

    · Fastball – LBCs 20x

    · Rocket – Jane Fondas – 10x each leg.

    · Dagwood – American Hammers – 30 count. I’m glad I wasn’t counting this one, cause I was in pain.

    · Workhorse – Leg Lifts – 20x. Workhorse also did these with his hands behind his head like a real man.

  • A Buzzer Beatdown

    The Scene: The Knoll

    Conditions: Mosquitos and Mud.

    Welcome

    Disclaimer

    Warm-a-Rama:

    Warmest day of the year. But we still did our warm-a-rama.

    Started with one full lap ending at the sundial.

    · SSH – 25x IC

    · Arm cirlces (15 Fwd/15Bkwds)

    · Bobby Hurley – 15x IC. (FNG was excited about this one. Gave a little shout out to ASU, he’s alma mater.)

    · Al Gores – 10x IC

    · Merkins -10x IC

    · Burpees – 8x on own.

    The Thang:

    We did our own form of March Madness.

    1. Suicide Madness– Mosey’d to the muddy football field. We stood at football goal line. Sprinted to about 20 yd line and back two times between each of the following:

    · 64 – SSH – (Workhorse finished these at blazing speed. But, in mid-sprint about the 10 yd line, he stopped, turned around, laughed, and said he only did 32. He came back and finished the rest. We were reminded you can’t look too far ahead. All eyes on you, Virginia. All eyes on you.)

    · 32 – Merkins.

    · 16 – Al Gores – Madness really set in

    · 8 – Burpees – Gabriel was still smiling somehow.

    · 4- Burpees

    · 2 – Burpees – A lot of midwife noises here.

    · 1 minute planks

    -Flutter kicks waiting on 6 man.

    We then took a little apocalyptic tour through the woods and over the log bridge. No injuries reported.

    After the long tour, we made it back to the sundial. We did a quick set of 15 merkins, 12 Freak Nastys, 10 Merkins, and 10 Freak nastys.

    2. Col Trautman – We then partnered up and did a little Colonel Trautman. One partner ran from sundial to pull up bar and did 5 pull-ups. While other partner stood at sundial and did lunges AMRAP. We did this for 4 quarters. Felt like we were in triple OT. MoneyCat finished his last one with a dead sprint back. The crowd erupted.

    Mary:

    We were running late for Mary’s, again. But 4 PAX led their favorite:

    · Fastball – LBCs – 10x

    · Dagwood – Jane Fondas (Rt) – 10x

    · Shangeux – American Hammers – 15x

    · Snack Pack – Jane Fondas (Lt)– 10x

    We cut it close on time, but we nailed it! A buzzer beatdown.

    Mosey’d to Flag. Gabriel, still smiling, sprinted to flag. It was the fastest I’ve seen it done. And it’s not even close.

  • Daylight Savings at The Knoll

    Knowing that we were about to lose an hour during the coming evening, we wasted no time getting started!

    The Scene:  The Knoll

    Conditions:  Chilly, a bit wet but no rain… we thought.

    Welcome. Saw no FNGs so we skipped the Disclaimer.  (Noted that since my last Q when I was not a professional trainer, I’m still not a professional trainer.)

    Warm-O-Rama:

    Mosey – Two laps around the Field – one forward, one back.  A bit of competitive spirit kicked in, with relish.  Then for some breath-catching and stretching exercises:

    Shoulder Circles.

    Imperial Walkers.

    SSH.

    Windmills.

    SSH.

    Al Gores.

    SSH.

    The Thang:

    Mosey to The Sundial, our faithful companion, for some upper-body work.

    Freak Nasties, putting “diamonds of gold” (a Tony Horton term) on our upper arms.

    Incline Merkins, to sharpen the edges of our pecs.

    Step Ups, to vary from upper body and give us the Buns of Steel that drive our wives crazy.

    And then some Partner Plank Curls, for biceps (which are hard to hit in F3) – where one guy planks and the other does standing bicep curls with his partner’s ankles.  We definitely learned a bit about ourselves on this one… and not necessarily for the better.  (10 curls each man, except for YHC who had no partner in this odd-numbered PAX)

    Then a second round of the above to make sure we all hit our Personal Best.

    Finally some La La Leggy to hit the buns again.  A 10-count of squats and lunges and calf raises.  (Yeah, your buns needed it, and you know who I’m talking to.)

    Mosey to The Hill, our Other faithful friend.  (Not the first hill, but across the creek to the second hill.  That’s where the action is.)

    Partner Run & Windmill Merkins.  One partner runs up the hill and back while the other does windmill merkins (just google it if you don’t believe me).  Got to 50 merkins per team, which brought a lot of groans from the girls in the group (And I’m talking about Tiger Bait, whose noisy complaining must spur him on because he finished first.)

    So we cooled down with more Shoulder Circles, before one more trek up the hill:  Bear Crawl Up, Crab Walk Down.  Dagwood made a fine showing until his log roll to the finish line.  But he also finished near the front of the pack.

    Then Black Snake back to the Shovel Flag – mosey in single file, with the last man weaving his way to the front until everyone has woven once.  This one seemed to raise everyone’s enthusiasm a bit, or maybe it was just knowing that we were almost done…..

    6MOM:

    LBFC:  LBCs while doing Flutter Kicks.

    Jane Fondas (in honor of Rocket who could not be with us.  I don’t know what he thinks of Jane’s politics, but he sure likes her leg exercises)

    American Hammer, to fist-pound our way to the finish.

    Homer to Marge (leg lifts), which always makes us recall The Simpsons fondly, and which also got us facing upward just as a delicate, refreshing drizzle began.  Just God’s way of saying He’s proud of us.

    And one more set of Jane Fondas, to close out with a second tribute to Rocket.

    COT/BOM.

    Then to the coffeeteria for some Friendship building, hoping the barista wouldn’t comment on the way we smelled.

    Now don’t forget to set your clocks forward tonight!

  • The 5-Man Army

    The Scene: The Colosseum

    Conditions: Cold again (55). Really windy. Less than average muddiness.

    Welcome

    Disclaimer

    Warm-a-Rama:

    It was early, windy, and chilly, so the warm-up was a little longer than normal.

    · Capri lap – we did about 5 laps in the parking lot.

    · Mosey – ran to parking lot on other side of Olympia Stadium.

    · SSH – 25x IC

    · Bobby Hurley – 15x IC.

    · Al Gores – 10x IC

    · Merkins -10x IC

    · Burpees – 7x on own.

    The Thang:

    Due to the Oscars, we did a little movie theme:

    1. Lt. Dans – I called these Aiken Legs, but a better name is Lt Dans (from Forrest Gump), cause afterwards we all felt like “we aint got no legs.” We stood on one end of parking lot and lunged to the median. Then did 10 squats. Lunged back to starting end and did 15 more squats. Went back one more time for 20 squats. These were painful, and pretty sure someone cussed at me.

    2. Speed Burps – Named after the movie Speed. While the movie had a bus, Keanu Reeves, and a bomb, we didn’t. So, instead, we did 10 burpees at each speed bump as we mosey’d back to flag. I took a Christopher Columbus route (all over the map) to make sure we hit up all the bumps.

    3. Col. Trautman – Named after the fella from Rambo. We partnered up. One did freak nasty’s AMRAP while other partner ran to monkey bars and did 5 pull-ups. We did this 4 times. And as Col Trautman said, “It was a bad time for everyone, Rambo. It’s all in the past now.”

    4. Catch Me If You Can — We kept the same partners. One partner took off running backwards while the other partner did 10 merkins. After 10 merkins, that partner sprinted to catch his partner. Then swap. We went from parking lot to driveway, which we could see for the first time thanks to the sun rise. We did this 4 times. Wheezing and slouching were at an all-time high.

    Mary:

    We were running late for Mary’s. But we did it. Everyone led their favorite Mary exercise.

    · Fastball – LBCs – 10x

    · Rocket – Double Legged Mt Climbers – 10x

    · Dagwood – Jane Fondas (Rt) – 10x

    · Shangeuxs – Jane Fondas (Lt) – 10x

    · Worms – Oooh Marys – 10x
