NMM:

An Honor to lead this group of men. Thanks for the hospitality you’ve shown while I’ve been on the West Coast. Y’all have a beautiful place.

Sorry for the 100 in cadence SSHs. I got very distracted looking out of the ocean while calling cadence and just kept going. I hope y’all didn’t mind too much.

Glad to have Brother at-Law join us from Nashville. You performed like a true Southern Gentleman and killed this workout.

Shark Bait is a beast and had the most vertical BTTW of any of the guys out there. It was almost as Impressive as Cleveland Rocks hand over hand walking down the wall and then hanging from his toes.

I wanted to get this BB out while every thing was still fresh in my mind but work travel got in the way and I’ve forgotten the remainder of the stuff I wanted to put in here.

Great JOB guys. Keep Growing and Pushing one another. I look forward to seeing you soon.

NMM:
What an honor to be allowed to lead a workout for another F3 location.

F3 Monterey accepted my request to Q with no questions or hesitation. I bet you they will think twice next time.

The Tabletop is an interesting little area with houses all around and people out running, jogging, and walking dogs. Perfect opportunity to call out and invite men to an ongoing workout. So that’s just what I did. Good thing too because that’s how KT joined our little group of 5 with 15 minutes to spare.

You never know when a guy is going to answer an invitation to join.

Until next time…

Hamburger Hill

Q: Hogs Breath

Disclaimer: Given

Warm O Rama:
SSH
Imperial Walkers
Calf Raises

The Thang

Mosey to the bottom of the hill.

Circle up and Dealers choice, followed by 5 iterations of Failure to Launch

Indian Sprints with KettleBell pass

Start at the base of a steep hill, we performed an Indian Run carrying a 15lbs KettleBell. Once the sprinter reached the front of the line, the KettleBell was passed to the back of the line until the last man began the sprint. Continued this for 10mins till we reached the “top o’ hill”.

Performed one round of “Deck o’ Beatdown”

Repeated the Indian Run passing the KettleBell, down and back up the hill.

Words of wisdom:

2 Corinthians 4:16-17 “Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For out light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all”

One proud father here. Breu Haha led the extended 40 minute “Warm Up”. His brother was present for his 3rd F3 workout and requested an F3 shirt after. Fish on.
Sad news our brother Powder is off to Washington State August 10.
