10 pax posting in the gloom of Asgard, most still recovering from the weekend after taking on the mighty Kraken.  YHC decided to take the Q as he is well aware of the physical and mental fatigue slaying such a dastardly beast.  Was it a sign of mercy? Doubtful.  He was going to challenge the group once again with some doctrine.  This time F3 Core Principles.

The Thang

There are Five CORE Principles of F3.  These are the only “rules” to F3.  As long as your beatdowns match these 5 principles, you can be F3.  Just like his Mission Q, YHC put these in a beatdown to help the pax remember them:

  • Pax runs across parking lot and performs exercise “a”, returns to baseline performs exercise “b”
  • All exercises x20 reps
  • 3 burpees at midway point each way
  • 2 rounds per Core Principle
  1. Always Free
    • Alternating shoulder taps (count 1 shoulder)
    • Flying squirls
  2. Open to All Men
    • Apolo Ohno (count 1 side)
    • Merkins
  3. Held Outdoors, Rain or Shine, Hot or Cold
    • Ranger Merkins
    • Scorpion dry docks
    • Hillbilly Squats
    • Crunchy Frogs
  4. Peer Led
    • Peter Parkers (count 1 leg)
    • Lunges (count each leg)
  5. Ends in a COT
    • Copperhead squats
    • T-merkins

COT/BOM

Our mission is to plant, grow and serve, small men’s workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.  Our Core values point to the mission:  the workout groups are always free, open to all men and held outdoors.  They help invigorate male community leadership by providing men the opportunity to lead a workout, without any special training or certification.  We come better men when we share our failures and our successes and things that weigh heavy on our hearts in the COT instead of letting them weigh us down.  YHC encouraged those who haven’t Q’d, or those who haven’t Q’d in awhile, to take the opportunity to do so… or he will grab more and just keep making them harder.
