  • Train for the BEAST like a BEAST – from Jose10k

    I will begin this backblast with the weather, much like our local “Ron Burgundy” does for the splash pad each backblast that he writes. It was 73 degrees outside, humid, and cloudy…”And the air was just right for drinking…”Bonus points for anyone who can tell me which 80s classic movie that line was from. Anywho, after doing a few laps prethang with the Robin to my Batman, we got to it:
    A series of exercises to get the blood flowing, when a late arrival by Fletch, we were ready to get started.
    A bunch of us signed up for the Spartan Beast Race in October. It’s a half a marathon with 30 obstacles. If you cannot complete an obstacle, the penalty is 30 burpees. I’m not having complete faith in myself, so let’s practice some burpees. In the Center of the parking garage, the PAX did 10 burpees, 20 squats, followed by a core exercise until the lucky runner returned. The lucky runner ran down the stairs to the bottom floor, ran across the garage, and back up the stairs on the opposite side. 6 rounds of this, the 4 corners. 5 burpees at each corner, lunge walk between 4 corners of the garage. 2 rounds of this. A total of 100 burpees, which I am sure Moby’s chiropractor isn’t happy with him. COT, and DarkWing prayed us out with special intentions of all the graduates. Thanks for reading, and thanks for letting me lead today. SYITG

  • Stations of The Cross Fit – from Einstein

    Strong warmup featuring many fan favorites.
    The event: set up 4 stations with gear:
    1 – jump ropes
    2 – 35 pound kettle bell
    3 – 24 pound kettle bell
    4 – 1 set of 15 pound dumbbells
    One pax sprints down the parking deck and then jogs back around.
    While one is running, the remaining pax each pick a station and; jump rope, squat press the 35 pounder, one arm press the 24 pounder, or lunge in place with the 15 pounders.
    then the next guy runs and each pax rotates a station
    We each did five or six run/rotations, and all worked up a good sweat.
    Moby sprinted his last run – impressive!

  • Keeping the Lights on the A1c – from Mobydick

    Short and sweet. Just me and Turbodog. Kept simple stretches to warm up then take to the stairs. 25 minutes of down one corner run to the other corner of the garage up the stairs and walk back to the other stairs. Got in about 6 trips and bearky 500 stairs. Knocked out 50 freak nasties and a few stretches and a cool down walk around the top and called good. Pretty much knew it was going to be just me cause the gipper regulars all had something else to do. Reflected on the years F3 has added to my life when Noted we are soon to celebrate 10 years on the Northshore. 7 of those have reshaped my life. Thanks yall
