  • Virtual Reality

    6 PAX gathered at Pontiff Playground in the foggy Ole’ Metairie gloom for a kickstart to the week.  We had to plant a virtual flag today after the shenanigans at City Park on Saturday.

    The Thang

    • Mosey to the Rock pile for our Warm-Up
    • Warm-up COP: SSH x 39; Imperial Walkers x 40; Good Mornings x 15
    • Select your rock and Mosey to the flag football field
    • Rock COP: Several sets of Upright Row, Shoulder Presses, and Squats all IC and of varying reps.  We totaled 50 IC Counts (100 reps) of each exercise.
    • Run the loop around the park (1 mile)
    • Upon returning from the run start in with several more sets of Upright Row, Shoulder Press, and Squats OYO. Trying to get in 100 reps of each.
    • Return rock to the rock pile
    • Mosey back to the virtual flag. We arrived in time to finish with 45 seconds of elbow plankin’

    Today’s workout was inspired by the Cross Fit workout known as the Murph.  It was inverted and extremely modified.  YHC has a long way to go, but maybe one day we will do an actual or at least a slick Murph at one of the NOLA AOs.  If you have time, you may want to check out the Wikipedia page of Lt. Michael Murphy.  It is a humbling read.  There is also a book and a movie about the Operation where he lost his life.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_P._Murphy

    • T-claps to RY for pushing YHC on the 1 mile run, to Rev for selecting Gibraltar, and to Amnesty for sharing the load of Gibraltar.

  • Lucky 13

    13 Men met in the GLOOM!  13 is one of the largest groups we have had yet and we were missing some regulars so that is very exciting!  My lucky number has always been 13 instead of the normal 7 so I took it as a good omen.

    Pre-thang – Zombie and Colonel texted and bailed the night before — so at least it was premeditated SMART-sacking. Colonel it was a crisp 48 degrees not 25-yes I just publicly called you out for being afraid of cold.   Zombie you are excused b/c you had to work.  Pulled up and there were several cars.  Blue Dog was certainly rocking out at Spinal Tap-esque 11 pre-post.  I strong armed Blue Dog yesterday via email to get him out there which was unnecessary since Blue Dog is all in.  First man out of a car was my FNG – All Practice.  I was shocked yet happy to see AP join us since he texted me that he was at a 51% possible show up – on Tuesday afternoon.  Thanks to his little girl for waking him up at 330AM and giving me the assist I needed to get him out of bed.  He was a 2 month EH and it finally paid off.  I think he liked it enough to come back!  Then Sweeper showed up.  I love it when a guy posts who hasn’t posted in a few weeks comes back = his Kotter!   Sweeper it is great to get you back in the crew or is it krewe?  Then a bunch of dudes poured out of their cars and we got to the thang.

    A thought about today –

    I tried to do something different today.  The loop at Audubon is 1.7 miles.  We have always run to the Fly or the Levees.  Today I wanted to see if we could do 5 pearls/COPs and complete a loop in our 45 min workout.  News to all – we can do it – and we got in 6 COPs although two were abbreviated.  This new loop will happen again but we will continue to mix things up on Wednesday.  If it was too much running for you – don’t panic – we will be back to bear crawling levees and doing Wile E Coyotes next time.  Also the more you do it, the better you get!  Today we decided to get better.

    The Thang –

    Mosey to Oak Alley

    To each light-pole – Lunges, Side hops, Bear Crawl, Boo boo bear crawl – right leg, Boo boo bear crawl – left leg, and jog

    Mosey to the track/path at Audubon.  Run 1/4 mile.

    COP #1 – SSH x 25, Mountain Climbers x 20, Slow Squats x 25, LBCs x 20

    Run 1/4 mile

    COP # 2 – Jack Webb to 10

    Run 1/2 mile

    COP #3 – A mini circle – Peter Parkers / Parker Peters x 15

    Run 1/4 mile

    COP #4 – At the benches by the fountain- Dips x 20, One leg squats left x 15 and right x 15.

    Run 1/4 mile

    COP #5 – LB Twist x 20,  Penguins x 20, Hello Dolly x 20

    Run 1/4 mile

    COP #6 – Regular Squats x 30, Wife Pleasers x20

    Run to the flag at a pace that pushes yourself.

    Plank o rama at the flag—Regular 45 secs, Southern Gent 45 secs, Yankee Aggressor 45 secs and elbow plank 10 secs ( I shut it down – at time – in hindsight I will push this to the full 45 secs next time)  Also sorry to Amnesty who wants to add 5 secs every plank o rama – we were at 50 secs last time so today should have been 55 secs.  Next time!

    COT – Shout Out by YHC.  Lets be grateful for our blessings.  Lets make an effort to be forces of positivity in our homes and workplaces.

    It was fun to Q this AM (It is always fun!).  I’m glad we made the complete loop around Audubon, it will be nice to have that in our bag of tricks.  I was pretty psyched to have a 13 PAX.  I love all of the different fitness levels and all of us out there working together to get fit and bond.  I hope that everyone will continue to EH some friends and keep growing F3 NOLA.  If we had 13 guys every workout that would be an excellent goal – it definitely pushed me a little harder today.  Remember that we are open to everyone of all fitness levels so bring them out to join us in the gloom.

    Tclaps to Sweeper for coming back and joining us!  Your Kotter was well played.

    Tclaps to all the guys who pushed themselves harder this AM

    Tclaps to Blue Dog for stepping up to Q next Wednesday.

    Tclaps to All Practice for finishing his 1st F3 workout

    Tclaps to the guys who stayed for some pull-ups extra credit

  • Rockin’ the Fog

    Pre Thang

    Really Foggy this morning.  Made the gloom seem rather gloomy.  Definitely can’t complain about New Orleans winters though – perfect workout temps.

    The Thang

    • Mosey to the T-ball field for Warm-up
    • Warm-up COP: SSH x 32; Good Mornings x 20; Arm Circles (Forward x 20, Reverse x 20); Imperial Walkers x 25; Windmills  x 20; Merkins x 15; Low Slow Squats x 30

    • Mosey back to the rock pile to drop off your buddy.
    • Mosey back to the shovel flag.

    Moleskin

    • Triple-Claps to Tundra and Roots for coming out in the Holiday Gloom. Tundra has to be pretty high on the list of all-time NOLA posts.  Very impressive considering he lives an hour away.
    • Prayers go out for speedy recoveries for Yankee (flu) and Amnesty (hamstring). Maybe we should change the name of the Windmill exercise to “Republicans,” since they apparently hate Amnesty.

  • The Wile E Coyote may be illegal – who knew?

    Pre-Thang – 8 Pax gathered in the Christmas Eve gloom to pre-burn some cals before Christmas food and beers!  Zombie was ready to roll after a few weeks off.  It was a Chilly 48 degrees and wet after a full day of rain.  Still – it didn’t rain on us.

    The Thang – Mosey 1/4 mi to the first COP 1 – heading toward the levees

    COP 1 – SSH x 30, Merkins x 15, Mountain Climbers x 20, Slow Squats x 25, Peter Parkers x 20, Fast Squats x 20

    Mosey to the levee

    At the levee – Jacob’s ladder (burpees) to 8.  (I know it is normally 7 but we added one)  to make it the Chevy to the Levee

    Mosey a bit – then

    6 Minutes of Mary

    1.  Jane Fonda both sides x 20   (odd echo off the condo complex along the river – probably woke up the whole building — oops)

    2.  LBC x 20

    3.  Russian Twist x 15

    4.  V Ups x 8  (ouch those really hurt after the twist)

    5.  Flutter kicks x 20

    Mosey to the FLY entrance for some Wile E Coyote’s x 15   – tribute to Keyman

    I was informed by FNG – Casey Jones who works with/in trains – at this point that basically this exercise is illegal.  Which made me wonder is this the first illegal activity associated with F3?  Does Keyman get credit for bringing illegal activity to F3?  Why do I want to make sure that I include Coyote’s every exercise now?  Do I have to skip it – when ever Casey Jones is around?  An interesting dilemma.  All I know is that I want to have more Wile E Coyote in my life now that I am breakin’ the law!

    Run to statue of Audubon for some birdwatchers – but believe it or not some tomatoes stole our spot!  Quickly changed our mosey to the benches in front of the Audubon Zoo.

    At the benches – dips, one leg squats (right and left), inclined merkins, declined merkins x 15

    Mosey back to the flag for some Plank o rama

    Was planning on a 45 sec plank of each position but Amnesty make me feel like a wuss since we did that last time so I bumped it up to 50 secs.

    So we did 50 secs of Regular, Southern Gentleman, Yankee Aggressor, and Elbow plank – at this point we missed Hawgcycle singing for us – Roots tried but … well he tried.

    After plank o rama we still had 2 minutes so we did a quick sprint around the parking lot and back to the flag.

    COT!  Shout out by YHC – prayed for positivity and to pull others around us away from negativity during the holidays.  Focus on our blessings

    Tclaps to Amnesty for bringing socks for the Vets!

    Tclaps to these men for coming out after a night of Christmas parties!

    Next F3 Friday 530 St Charles Entrance to Audubon Park   Q is Roots

    Saturday 7AM City Park – Amnesty has his VQ –if you are in town please make an effort to go to this — a bunch of the normal Saturday crew is out of town and I would like Amnesty to have a few guys for his VQ.  Also give him feedback.

    Monday – Pontiff in the Old Metaire.  There will be rocks!  Q is Hawgcycle

    Merry Christmas!

    We arrived at 630PM on the levee just outside of Cooter Brown’s.

    • YHC selected a rock I had no business trying to carry. T-claps to Chaka  Khan for helping me get it back to the pile at the end of the workout.
    • Prayer Requests: Remember students at exam time.
    • YHC ended the COT with some thoughts about the 3rd F and how it is symbolized by the Rock City Workout.  At Rock City, it’s the rock that makes you stronger.  I can pick a small rock, one that I know I can handle, one that won’t make me too uncomfortable, and I will get a little stronger.  It is the same way with my relationship with Christ.  I can have a little bit of faith, I can bring Jesus into my life in ways that I know I can handle, ways that won’t make me too uncomfortable.  Or, I can “Go Big;” take a leap of faith the size of the rock Amnesty picked at his first Rock City post; an amount of faith that I can’t handle; an amount of faith that makes me uncomfortable.   It is when I “Go Big” that I find out how awesome my God really is.

    Another perfect NOLA morning.  YHC arrived a little early to do some scouting, hoping to use some new areas of the AO.  As you will read later, the scouting was not very diligent.  However, we were successful in using some new areas.
