Introduction
For my first Q ever, we partnered up and ended with an AMRAP. Teamwork that hopefully inspired confidence to finish.
Warm-O-Rama
Moseyed around the AO, doing Tappy Taps, Imperial Walkers, High Planks (reaching for the sky from one side to the other), and Side Straddle Hops.
The Thang
Thang 1:
Partner up. One HIM runs to cone 1, bear crawls to cone 2, Bernie Sanders back to cone 1, runs back to start. Meanwhile, other HIM works on 100 Merkins, 200 Chest Presses, 300 Goblet Squats. Partners take turns completing the reps.
Thang 2:
AMRAP. In each of the four corners of the AO lie a short 10 rep workout. Rifle carry or Farmer carry your coupon between the corners. 10 Upright Rows, 10 Blockees, 10 Curls, 10 Thrusters. Don’t let your Coupon touch the ground (except for during the Blockees).
Circle of Trust
I started my F3 journey on May 29, 2019. I took a big hiatus that year and in 2020 and 2021, but got back into it when I moved to Naperville in 2022. Illness, work travel, and injury kept me from Q-ing these past 6 months, but not anymore. If you haven’t Q’d yet, check out the app and look more than 2 weeks ahead. Plenty of spots are open. You will be surrounded by a community of men who are there to support you during your Q and in your F3 journey thereafter. I guarantee it.
Naked Man Moleskin
I tried to leave the light on, but the parking lot timer cut out the lights 10 min early. Luckily we’re all men and found our way in the dark (as we usually do).
