Introduction

Preblast was simple. Work will be put in on the hill.

I rolled into the parking lot around 4:35 to set up. Right behind me was Bjorn, wide eyed and ready to get rippin!  Rest of the EC crew rolled in, Serena, Yugo, Curds, Glenn and Aladdin and they all took off.

As I set up I debated a few rep counts, but everything appeared to be locked in for what I thought would be a good burner.

EC Crew came back and rest of PAX rolled in.

5:15! Circle up!

F3 is free, open to all men, held outdoors, led in a peer rotating fashion and ends in a circle of trust

I am not a professional and not aware of any injuries you may have. Please push yourself, but don’t hurt yourself!

LFG.

Circle of Trust

Searched the night before for a quote that resonated with me. Drives some inward reflection.

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” – Aristotle

Hit home with me as F3 has become a habit for me and most men in F3 each day driving us to be better. This hopefully helps us identify other health habits we can take on in other areas of our life, whether its professionally, in your community or within your family.

 

 

Naked Man Moleskin

My back has been sore for about the last week.  Started feeling loose after warm up, but frustrated I missed out on the EC group this morning because of it.

Way to get after it early Serena, Yugo, Curds, Bjorn, Glenn and Aladdin!

Lots of new faces this morning for me!  Good to see some new guys continuing to come out and post as well as some guys who have been in F3 for a while coming back out to start post! Nice meeting some new faces this morning!
