  • No Burpee Suicides?? What???


    YHC arrived to the Mothership a few minutes early, and was surprised to be one of the first on the scene. With only 5 minutes to go, there were no more than a dozen Pax, which is a low number for the Mothership, but is understandable given a holiday weekend. YHC was pleasantly surprised with the final push of arrivals, bringing the total posting to 23, including an FNG!
    With the clock turning 0630, time for a brief disclaimer, then…

    Mosey toward the Great Lawn, in a direction that threw the Pax off. Keep ’em guessing is the best policy. Circle up on the Great Lawn for the Warm Up

    SSH IC x 31
    IW IC x 15
    Ave Vigodas IC x 10
    Grass Grabbers IC x 10
    Arm Circles IC – 10 fwd, 10 bwd
    Chinook Squats IC x 10
    Plank-o-rama…Peter Parker IC x 15….Mountain Climber IC x 15….Parker Peter IC x 15.

    A quick countoff proves an odd number of pax. YHC had a game of “Catch Me If You Can” planned out, but the odd number threw a wrench in the cogs. Not to fret, YHC had the odd and even numbers split up into two groups. Odd numbers start running backward on Great Lawn, Even numbers do five Burpees and “Catch Up” to Odd numbers. Once first Pax arrives, all drop into a plank and wait. Even Pax run backwards while Odd numbers do five Burpees and “Catch Up” to Even numbers.
    One round of that was enough, YHC knew he should have put the cones out……but trying to infuse something new into the routine!

    Mosey to the NOMA Fountain.

    Box Jumps OYO x 10
    LL Step ups IC x 10
    Dips IC x 15
    RL Step ups IC x 10
    Derkins IC x 15

    Mosey to the Tree Line, line up along the first tree.
    Bear Crawl to 2nd tree, 10 merkins
    Bear crawl to 3rd tree, 10 shoulder taps (King Kong did Kongs…)
    Bear Crawl to 4th tree, 10 Floyd Mayweathers
    Bear Crawl to 5th tree, 10 Burpees OYO and stand back up

    Split the Pax in two groups again. Even number pax form one circle, Odd number pax form another circle.
    Circle Burps!
    All pax run in place. Each pax takes turns saying “down” which signals the entire circle to do a burpee, recover, and run in place. The odd numbers went around the circle twice, one can only assume the Even’s did roughly the same.

    Mosey to the Foundry for Stations!

    Station 1 – Dips AMRAP
    Station 2 – Pull ups AMRAP
    Station 3 – Merkins AMRAP
    Station 4 – Leg Lifts AMRAP
    Station 5 – Big Boi Sit Ups AMRAP
    Station 6 – Run to bike trail, 5 Burpees, Run back – Timer

    Complete 2 Rounds

    Mosey back to the Great Lawn

    Flutter Kicks IC x 20
    Crunchy Frog IC x 10
    Tin Snips IC x 10

    Seal the Deal with 10 Burpees OYO!

    Mosey back to the Shovel Flag.

    COT

    Count Off, Name-O-Rama, Announcements, Intentions, Close with a Prayer. Welcome Pele’!

    NMM
    The Pax were expecting some Burpee Suicides, but YHC threw ‘ em off with some new routines. Expect the Unexpected! Don’t worry, you’ll find yourselves doing Burpee Suicides again soon enough……
    Not exactly sure how a guy born in Venezuela is named after a renowned soccer player from Brazil….but it works!
    On a weekend of Giving Thanks, I’d like to say thank you to my F3 Brothers for continually pushing and supporting me to be a better person overall. This is a great organization, one that too many miss out on.

    Thanks for posting with me today!

    SYITG!

  • And on your left, my right……..

    So after over a year of being a part of F3, YHC decided to have his first Wolfpack Mountain Q on Black Friday.  I know, surprising after so many Q’s, YHC has never Q’ed the Mountain.  What makes that even more surprising is that Loyola is my Alma Mater!  I’ve spent a lot of time on this campus so what better way to christen my first Wolfpack Q than to take the PAX on a good, old-fashioned college tour.  Our group was small compared to normal Wolfpack Mountain but I say quality over quantity.

    With a short disclaimer, we were off.

    Mosey to space outside of Roussel Hall for warm-up:

    • Windmills IC X15
    • Hillbillies IC X20
    • Forward Arm Circles IC X15
    • Reverse Arm Circles IC X15
    • Peter Parkers IC X20

    Short Mosey to first stop on tour Roussel Hall (College of Music) for:

    A quick run up and down the stairs on side of building to continue warm-up.

    Next Mosey to benches by our second stop Monroe Hall (Math and Science Building) for:

    • Dips IC X15
    • Incline Merkins IC X15
    • Right Leg Step Ups IC X15
    • Left Leg Step Ups IC X15

    Short Mosey to our third stop Miller Hall (College of Business).  Spent a lot of time here!

    • Rocky Balboas X20 then Bearcrawl to other side of street for Jump Squats X20 rinse and repeat X 5

    Next mosey to our fourth stop Bobet Hall (Liberal Arts building) for some Mary:

    • Flutter Kicks IC X20
    • Penguins IC X20
    • Hello Dolly IC X20

    Mosey to Quad with a quick wave to the Danna Center (Student Union) and Lindy Boggs Library.  So the quad is surrounded by the Loyola dorms, Biever Hall for the Men, Buddig Hall for the Women and the Co-Ed Dorms.  Yes PAX, I spent a little time in Buddig Hall.  So, the thang:

    Four Corners – BLIMP

    • 5 Burpees at first corner then Cariacoa to Next Corner for
    • 10 Lunges then Crab Crawl to next corner for
    • 15 Imperial Walkers then backward run to next corner for
    • 20 Merkins then Duck Walk to next corner for
    • 25 Plank Jacks

    Next Mosey to the bottom of Mountain.  Yes, we can’t have a Wolfpack Mountain beatdown without the Mountain!

    Single-line Indian Run up to the top.

    After a quick Rudy 20 count at the top, YHC instructed all PAX to line up backs against the wall in one line for next exercise….GRATITUDE!  PAX turn around and look at the amazing view of our City.  In the spirit of Thanksgiving, YHC wanted the PAX to take a second to consider how lucky we are to live in this amazing city we call home and to have this incredible brotherhood of F3.  We are truly blessed!

    Time is running short so down the stairs and back to the virtual flag.  Arrived right at 6:15.  Let’s get in 10 Nolan Ryan’s each side OYO.  Now we’re done.

    Count-off, Name-o-rama, Intentions and Prayer.  YHC feeling thankful so Coffeetaria on me for all PAX!  7 PAX joined for coffee and great F2.

    Thankful and blessed to be part of F3!

  • Getting back to Skinny

    This morning we pushed ourselves for a long lap around Audubon and The Fly – almost 3.5 miles.  Nice work, men.

    We started out with some warmups in place:

    • 20 x SSH
    • 10 seconds of left-leg-over-right followed by 10 of right-over-left
    • 10 x windmills

    We then did single line Indian Run to the benches in the front of the park for some more exercises:

    • 20 x step ups per leg
    • 20 x power ups per leg

    We then jogged 3 x running men and sprinted 1 x running men until we got to the pull up bars.  We split up into four groups for the following:

    • Group 1: 15 seconds of flexed hang from the pull up bars (this was the count)
    • Group 2: high plank
    • Group 3: mission impossible plank
    • Group 4: pickle pounders

    We then double line Indian ran across Magazine Street and into The Fly.  We stopped a few times for sets of 5 x burpees then circled up opposite the fields outside Children’s Hospital for one more round of exercise/Mary:

    • Ring of fire building up to 5 x merkins
    • 10 x LBCs
    • 10 x LBTs

    That got us to about 0611, so we moseyed on back to the flag, arriving just in time.  A solid 3.37 miles was completed by all PAX – a great start to Thanksgiving week. We crossed paths with the imminently well mannered Tulane Army ROTC a few times this morning.  Had me wondering how interactions will go with them following this weekend’s Tulane-Navy game…

    Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

  • Backblast – Catfish, 2018-11-10

    From here we moseyed to the fountain for a Dora featuring…

    100 box jumps, 200 dips, and 300 mountain climbers, while partners did the bunny hop up the museum steps.

    This was followed by two laps of Indian run around the main drag in front of the museum.

    From here we moved to the trees in the adjacent grassy area.  Here we did two series of bear crawls, duck walk, lunges, and burpee broad jumps, each for a distance of two trees and followed by 5 burpees between exercises.

    From here we moseyed back to the great lawn for Jack Webb up to 13, and then finished the workout with some Dying Cockraoches, Box Cutters, and Penguin Toe Touches.

    Thanks to everyone for coming out and participating!  Should be a great start to a gorgeous weekend!

  • First Q at the Mountain

  • Partnering in the dark

    6:30 am on the last day before Daylight Savings Time ends is, surprisingly at least to YHC, quite dark.  YHC had plans that included moseying through the forest over to the track – its been a while since we hit the track at the Mothership – but decided to improvise instead, and avoid the inevitable sprained ankle that awaited him if went blindly running through the tree roots in the pitch black NOLA morning.

    PAX were thus treated to a modified, sorta-improvised Q – and they noticed.  And mumble-chattered about it.  But c’est la vie: you get what you pay for…..

    To the Great Lawn!

    Heisenberg grumbled about the damp and cold.  So…  Thanks for the great idea Heisenberg – everyone on your 6 to start with LBCs!  Much gumbling ensued.  So – lets roll over for some Superman.  More grumbling.  That might have been the last YHC heard from Heisenberg for the rest of the workout.

    Then get started with SSH: 10 regular, 10 redbull, 10 triple-shift cadence.  Tried the same with IW – but IW in Triple Shift cadence proved to be, uh, weird.  So quick cancel of that one.  Monkey Humpers x30 (much grumbling and groaning as we hit the 30 count.  Don’t worry, we’ll see these again.) Abe Vigodas to finish stretching out hammies.

    Partner Up for Blimps

    Partner up for BLIMPS around the great lawn.  Start on one end with 5 burpees.  Then run around the lawn (stick to the sidewalk, appreciate the clarification call-out Frac) partners going in opposite direction.  When you meet your partner around the track (wherever it is), do the next exercise together.  Then keep running.

    5 Burpees.  Run.  Say Hi when you meet your partner.

    10 Lunges.  Run again.  Say Hi again.

    15 IWs.  ….

    After several repeated explanations, the light slowly dawned on the PAX.  Even  King Kong was able to figure it out.  So we were off.

    When finished, join the PAX circle in the middle for more LBC waiting on the 6.

    Partner Up for some Sprints

    Groups of 3 this time. PAX 1 does LBC on one side of the great lawn.  PAX 2 does Merkins on the other side.  PAX 3 sprints across the lawn tagging out his partner on that side.  Partner sprints back across the lawn.  Etc. etc. etc.  You are either doing LBC, Merkins or sprinting.  Rinse and Repeat until YHC gets bored.  YHC gently reminds PAX to sprint , not mosey.  There will be time for resting later.

    Go.

    6 mins later, PAX got a 16 count from JV.

    Start the mosey to the Fountain, but pivot instead to the foot of Roosevelt Mall.

    Partner Up for some Dips

    Partner up – find a different partner.  4 Minutes of Partner Dips at a bench.  What’s Partner Dip?  PAX 1 does 20 dips resting feet on PAX 2 who is planking.  Repeat.  YHC was sad and alone, and only could dip, looking longingly at the other PAX who had a partner and time to rest – with dirty feet on their back.

    Mosey to the Baby Foundry

    Parnter Up for a Circuit

    6 groups (3 PAX per group)

    • 15 Burpees (Timer)
    • Green Snake Jumping (or Box Jumps)
    • Pull Ups
    • Merkins
    • Hanging Knee Lifts
    • Dying Cockroaches

    Everyone gets a turn at all of ’em.

    Mosey Home

    But wait!  Two Yutes asks Q if we could PLEASE do some more Monkey Humpers!  Of course we can.  So we stop at Tools Wall for 2 rounds of Calf Raises x25 followed by Monkey Humpers x30.  Lots and Lots of PAX groaning after MH x30.  And lots of strange running form to be seen as we re-started the Mosey Home.

    Thanks, Two Yutes and Triple Shift, for pushing YHC on the run home!

    Peter Parker at the Flag waiting for the 6.

    COT

    Count-off (17 Strong!) Name-o-rama (no FNGs this week – everyone remember to keep EH’ing.  Bring F3 to your friends!) and close out with our intentions and prayers.  Thank you all for the opportunity to lead!

  • Focus Avoids Penalties at WPM

    The long awaited debut of the Fracsac Wolf Pack Mountain Q finally arrived. November 2nd seemed so far away not long ago. News of the monumental event traveled far and wide. Rudy canceled his plans to travel to some Irish school, King Kong passed on the opportunity to climb a building in NYC, and a HIM from Pittsburgh made a special trip for it. Don’t let anyone try to tell you different, what you read here is total fact….sort of.
    25 men of F3 joined YHC to see what was in store. With 0530 upon us, time to do a disclaimer, then throw the Pax off with a countoff. The Pax were instructed to remember their number. Mosey down St Charles, and make a U-Turn back to the Loyola Lawn for the warmup.

    SSH IC x 31 (because that’s what we do)
    Grass Grabbers IC x 10 (there was much mumblechatter)
    Abe Vigodas IC x 10

    Plank-o-rama
    Peter Parkers IC x 20
    Mountain Climbers IC x 20
    Parker Peter IC x 20
    Asked King Kong his number. He responded with 24
    Merkins IC x 12 (4-count total of 24)

    The Pax was asked to count off again, in the order of 1,2,1,2……remembering old number and new number.
    Mosey to the Mountain.

    Group 1 in a column on the left, Group 2 in a column on the right. Indian Run up to the top of the Mountain.
    Once on top, time to test the focus of the Pax. When we get tired, we tend to lose focus. This can affect home life, or work, or other things. The instructions were simple. A Pax was asked his first number. The first number may have been 17. YHC informed the Pax there would be one opportunity to hear the instructions. Failure to execute properly would result in a penalty.
    17 SSH, the first 10 in cadence, the rest in silence, maintaining cadence internally. Failure to stop at the designated number, or a failure to stop counting out loud beyond 10, would result in a penalty.
    Penalty #1 – Mosey to the end of the top floor. Split in group 1 and Group 2, 10 Burpees OYO, sprint back to other end.
    We tried the test again. 16 SSH may have been the number, but it doesn’t matter, because the Pax incurred another penalty.
    Penalty #2 – 10 Burpees OYO, sprint to the other end and back. There was some mumble chatter claiming YHC was just messing with everyone. Not true.
    Penalty #3 – Sprint to the end again, 10 Burpees OYO, sprint back. Most of the Pax was getting it, but a couple did not.
    Final effort of 13 SSH IC to 10, followed by silence until 13. There was one Pax that did not stop with the rest of us, but YHC allowed one do over. Upon that effort, the entire Pax was in perfect uniform SSH IC mode. It was a beautiful sight!
    Mosey back down the mountain, stopping at level 6 for:
    Monkey Humpers IC x 20
    Mosey to level 5 for:
    Catalina Wine Mixers IC x 10 (not so fun on the concrete floor of parking garage…meant for grass)
    Continue the mosey to the bottom.
    Move to the benches.
    RL Powerups IC x 10
    LL Powerups IC x 10
    Dips IC x 15
    Mosey back to Loyola Lawn
    Freddie Mercury IC x 20 (Bohemian Rhapsody Opens Today!)
    Flutter Kicks IC x 20

    Times Up, mosey back to flag

    COT

    Countoff, Announcements, Intentions, closed with a prayer to the Sky Q.

    NMM
    We welcomed Gemini from Pittsburgh. This guy could knock out some burpees fast, hence the HIM title. He mentioned he planned to come back and guest Q, showing us a real Burpee workout. Looking forward to it! T-Claps to Reluctant Yankee for getting him to WPM and to Jingle Vader for getting him back to his hotel.
    When I first visited Wolfpack Mountain, the Indian run up beat me, and I dropped out. It took me a few visits to get there, but I did it. Today I Q’d it! T-Claps to those that kept motivating me.
    There were a couple Burpee Debts paid at the end. We got to see Sea Man wear an Irish Jersey!
    Coffeteria at PJ’s was great as always.

    Thanks for posting with me today!

  • Halloween Beatdown

    19 PAX gathered in the spooky gloom that is Audubon Park on this Halloween morning.  Surprisingly, not one person was in costume,after some mumble chatter on the group text about that the previous day .  YHC had planned to do a Richard Simmons costume complete with a glittered F3 logo tank top, but that plan never came together.  So, disclaimer was given and off we moseyed around the golf course parking lot and back to the area in front of the bandstand.   Circle up for the Monster M.A.S.H. warm-up.

  • Inaugural Sunnyside!

    No gloom this beautiful morning as PAX and 2.0s gathered at the Brees family playground.

    Circle up for a an overview of F3 and warmup.

    • SSH x 20 IC
    • Then we had 2.0s demonstrate proper “flossing” technique, to which we added cadence.  Tclaps to Peppa and Gabrielle for exemplary flossing.
    • Flossing, 4 count cadence x20.
    • Forward arm circles IC x 10, reverse arm circles IC x 10
    • Windmills IC x 10.

    THANG 1

    Mosey to the playground. Split into 2 groups.

    First group, PAX Peter Parker until all 2.0s ride the zipline. 2nd group does 10 pullups.  Then flapjack.

    THANG 2

    PAX carry a 2.0 on their back across the park to a tree.  All 2.0s climb or are lifted into the tree.  Photo Op.

    PAX carry 2.0 to benches at the fountain. All PAX and 2.0s do 20 dips IC.

    Mosey to the track.  Alternate run/jog to the gazebo.

    At the Gazebo, PAX and 2.0s do right leg step ups 10 IC, then left leg 10 IC.

    PAX carry 2.0s to the second gazebo.  Incline merks.  10 IC.  Then 10 more IC.

    Mosey back to the playground. for ….

    THANG 3 -the Caterpillar.

    PAX shoulder to shoulder in high plank.  2.0s army crawl down the “tunnel.” Last PAX runs to the front of the tunnel and 2.0s keep crawling.  The caterpillar moves forward.

    Finally, we circled up for F2&3. Count, and Name-o-rama.  Some PAX picked their 2.0s names, since their wives probably did the picking the first time around. Some 2.0s emphatically picked their own names.

    We wrapped with circle and prayer, then regrouped at the Coffee and Beignet spot for well deserved powdered sugar goodness.

  • Wait… One More Thang… at The Skinny

    Pre-Thang

    YHC has been posting at Rock City on Mondays, but YHC never forgets where his very first AO, Uptown.  YHC received a text the night before from Reluctant Yankee reminding YHC has the Q.  Few minutes before the Q, YHC had to scope out the AO because some yoga masters have been working out by the Band Stand where YHC wants part of the workout to be.  At 5:15 a.m., no yoga masters in sight, but when we got there with our warm-ups at 5:31 am., they were there.  YHC had to modify part of the beatdown.  26 PAX managed to meet up on a cool, dry Monday morning.  At 5:30, YHC gave his standard disclaimer and off the PAX.

    Warm-ups

    Moseyed to the band stand and did the following in cadence:

    SSHs x 20

    Imperial Walkers x 20

    Windmills x 15

    The Thang

    Starting off at the first light post at the Oak Alley in front of the Band Stand, each Pax had to do the following:

    Round 1 – 5 burpees, then moseyed to the 3rd light post and did 50 scissor kicks, moseyed to the 5th light post and did 50 squats, moseyed right before the track with 5 more burpees, then run a lap from the track to the parking lot then back towards the shelter by the Band Stand.  Stopped by the shelter and did 50 dips.

    Round 2 – rinse and repeat but shaved off the reps with 4 burpees, 40 scissor kicks, 40 squats, 4 burpees, 40 dips.

    Round 3 – rinse and repeat but shaved off another set of reps with 3 burpees, 30 scissor kicks, 30 squats, 3 burpees, 30 dips.

    Round 4 – rinse and repeat with 2 burpees, 20 scissor kicks, …..

    Round 5 – rinse and repeat with 1 burpee, 10 ….

    Each lap is approximately 0.25 mile.  In total, the PAX toughed out 30 burpees, 150 scissor kicks, 150 squats,  150 dips, and approximately 1.25 miles run.

    T-claps to 86, Jadaveon, Mariah, and El Wire for setting the pace and finished the 5 rounds in approximately 20 minutes.  The rest of the Pax finished at a much faster time than YHC had anticipated and averaged about 5 minutes per round.  Strong work by everyone.

    Round of Mary

    Pax circled up in front of the band stand.  With the help of the Pax…..

    Medulla – Dying Cockroach x 15 IC

    Angie’s List – LBCs x 15 IC

    Bartman – SLOOOOOW American Hammers x 15 IC

    Reluctant Yankee – Low Country Crab x 15 IC

    Sandbar – Mission Impossible Plank

    El Wire – Leg Raises x 15

    Mariah – SLOOOOOOW Flutter Kicks x 15 IC

    More Thang

    After the Round of Mary, YHC noticed the yoga masters left the band stand.  And because the Pax finished the rounds so quickly, YHC did one more round starting at the back of the band stand. (this is what YHC wanted to do from the very beginning).  The Pax finished the day with 20 box jumps, climbed over the stage, moseyed to the first light post at the Oak Alley with 2 burpees, moseyed to the 3rd light post with 20 scissor kicks, moseyed to the 5th light post with 20 squats, moseyed right before the track with 2 burpees, ran the lap like before and stopped at the shelter with 20 dips.  Waited for the Six and did 15 x IC right leg step up, then 15 x IC left leg step up.  Finally, moseyed back to the flag at 6:15 a.m.
