A glorious hump day morning at The Gipper. We had a PAX of 7 emerge from the shadows just as the morning sun was beginning to burn off the fog of war. After discussing Steve’s three first names (Steve, Bart, and Nelson?) and how anyone that wanted to steal his …
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 …
With Capt Sparkles Q’ing a great CSAUP at the Crescent City Classic this past weekend, three F3 vets arrived at the flag in the “gloom” Saturday morning, Turbo, Maverick, and THE Manny. If the “gloom” this past weekend was wrong, I don’t want to be right! T-claps to these two …
At a cool 38° and with the Ides of March approaching, it wasn’t a Shakespearean betrayal that had YHC worried – it was what miserable AMRAP challenge would Turbo come up with next? So 14 days in, I figured we’d sprinkle a few of the past challenge exercises (italicized below) …
“I believe that every human mind feels pleasure in doing good to another” Thomas Jefferson And it was, indeed, a pleasure doing a good job whooping on the the PAX this morning! Warm-o-rama: Air Squared (people’s chair with seal claps) x20 21s – SSH in cadence, 1-5 out loud, 6-21 …

Two PAX showed up on time, with a third PAX – Maverick, doing the best Dukes of Hazzard arrival, with a family vehicle, that I’ve ever seen. …flying into the parking lot, shooting gravel everywhere, some of which bounced off the Gipper statue, leaving R.R.’s nice patina, speckled, like a …
Being able to join my Brothers on a day of reflection does not get any better for a F3 member. I thank Turbo for encouraging me to join this fine group, just over one year ago. So many men I now know. Bonding to make us stronger indivudually and as …
11 Pax posted for our Saturday beat-down. I hate burpees, so we knocked out the big rocks first: 10 burpees, 9 burpees, 8 burpee,…. etc and on with the pattern continuing down until there was nothing left and then we finished off with another.. 10 burpees. Then we did short …
QIC arrived at the AO with the welcoming of 2 PAX. Turbo and Einstein who are just as loyal as the Ronald Reagan statue, which stands at attention welcoming all who journey to the home we call the Gipper on Wednesday gloom’s.. The sound of gravel and the closing of …
