Introduction

They say it’s your birthday.  We’re gonna have a good time!  No coupons needed.  HC in the thread!

The Scene:  Mid 40’s and cloudy.  Sounds excellent.  I had Amazon Music play a playlist called Birthday Blowout.  We shall see how that goes.

Welcome & Disclaimer

F3 has 5 core principles:  1. Free 2. Open to ALL men 3. Peer led in a rotating fashion 4. Held outdoors rain or shine, heat or cold 5. Ends in a Circle of Trust

I am not a professional.  You are here of your own free will.  I have no knowledge of any injuries or fitness considerations. It is your responsibility to be safe and modify exercises as needed.

In cadence (IC) is the rhythm in between each rep or the body movement between each rep.

Our mission is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.  Our credo is to leave no man behind and leave no man where you found him.

A friend of mine posted this page a few months ago and it stuck with me and I started following this page on Facebook.  It is called Warrior Wisdom & The Warrior Lifestyle.  It is based off of BUSHIDO: The Way of the Warrior by Bohdi Sanders.  “Warriors are not always the fastest or the strongest men.  Warriors are those who choose to stand between their enemy and those that they love or hold sacred.”

Be that warrior for someone today.  

Lord, thank you for this glorious morning and allowing these men to join me in making our bodies stronger, our minds sharper and our hearts cleaner.  Please protect these men, their families and all those with whom they come in contact today.  Amen.

Peace,

Cousin Eddie
