Introduction

Stupid rain earlier in the morning screwed some of my plans, so modified to a heavy pavilion beatdown. Since no PAX today were at Iron Lion on Monday, lets run it back . . .

Warm-O-Rama

you know what my warmups are. Stop asking me.

The Thang

Partner up.

First DORA

  • One partner does a “monster merkin”. Starting in plank position, Each hand on one coupon, do a row with your right arm, then your left, then do a merkin. Thats one rep
  • Partner does a power clean from the ground with a 65-75 pound sandbag.
  • alternate reps one at a time (switching when tired) to count up to 100 reps total

Second DORA

  • One partner sits on the picnic bench with a sandbag on the top of their feet. Do leg extensions.
  • Partner holds a coupon in Rifle Carry.
  • Switch when needed. 200 total leg extensions

Third Dora

  • On your 6 like you are doing a big boy sit up. Legs bent and feet flat on the ground. Your partners feet directly next to yours, facing each other. Putting the sandbag on both your feet as a counterweight, one partner does a big boy holding a coupon, then passes it to their partner, who does a big boy sit up.
  • Alternate until 80 coupon big boys are done.

Fourth Dora

  • One partner sits on the picnic table bench, with their feet on a coupon. The other coupon on their knees. Do calf raises. 200 total
  • Other partner does Coupon curls

Last DORA

  • Set up in partner big boy position with sandbags again.
  • One partner does a big boy and punches their partners hands, twisting their body to the opposite side. Do 5 big boys, then switch with your partner.
  • After 3 minutes. Pick up coupon again. This time the partner lays down, does a lying lat pullover, THEN a big boy, then passes the coupon to their partner who does the same thing for last 2 minutes.

Circle of Trust

CoT.

F3 has three sections . . . not one, not two, THREE. If you are only participating in one and ignoring the others, you arent getting the full experience and you arent accelerating as a COMMUNITY LEADER.

The Second F (fellowship) isnt just for YOU. Its for the guy next to you that needs to vent about his job loss, or divorce, or just moved here and doesnt know anyone, or just needs another brotherhood connection outside of the workouts. If you arent participating, isnt that just another way to “leave a man behind”?

The Third F (faith) isnt just doing a prayer at the end of a workout or seeing s small circle of PAX that belong to your particular place of worship. We have a channel for homebound services that actively helps members of our community that need assistance. (Big props to Rondy Rousey, Shirley Temple, Toady, etc that remain very active) If you arent participating, are you really a comminity leader? Arent community leaders engaged to helping all members of the community . . . especially those that cant help themselves? Isnt that “picking up the 6”?

The first F is a start. All three Fs is what make our organization different. Ask yourself what are you doing to live all 3 Fs on a daily basis?
