Captain Mac Co-Q at The Bag of Wrenches – Pre-Blast 2.4.20
With our F3 Louisville hidden treasure, Whitney, needing a day off to rest his vocal chords after singing along with J Lo and Shakira last night during the Halftime Show, Handbook asked who wanted to step up and lead the HIMs of the O tomorrow. Who better to step in than our beloved former NathanContinue reading “Captain Mac Co-Q at The Bag of Wrenches – Pre-Blast 2.4.20”
F3 Louisville is #RyleighStrong
Last week in the Gloom I was struck by the story of a young girl who was struggling. A fellow HIM shared with the group about Tony Malito’s niece, Ryleigh, who has been in the hospital since December 24. She was first admitted for the Flu but was later diagnosed with pneumonia and was transferredContinue reading “F3 Louisville is #RyleighStrong”
Cock-A-Doodle-Dude My Shoulders Hurt – Rooster Back-Blast 1.7.20
Tuesdays are notable in the F3 Louisville region. We typically have our highest numbers on Tuesdays. Not sure if it is because we have a wealth of sites and workout options, because of Tank Top Tuesday, or because it’s the first day the guys from the Mutt can workout during the week. Either way, KiloContinue reading “Cock-A-Doodle-Dude My Shoulders Hurt – Rooster Back-Blast 1.7.20”
Cock-A-Doodle-Doo – Rooster Pre-Blast 1.7.20
With Swim Season in full swing, it limits the days I can post and Q.

Dos Locos @ The Loco – 12.3.19 Pre-Blast
It’s always fun to challenge yourself, but even more fun to do so with a partner.

Tomorrow, CatfishContinue reading “Dos Locos @ The Loco – 12.3.19 Pre-Blast”

When the Rooster call, what do you do? Back Blast – 10.15.19
The Rooster is one of the most unique names for a workout, but I love the premise (or what I assume to be the premise). We don’t get up for easy, and the rooster is typically seen as a wake up call for many, but for others we are often up before the rooster is,Continue reading “When the Rooster call, what do you do? Back Blast – 10.15.19”
McAfee is bringing the meaning of The Rooster – Pre-Blast 10.15.19
In the Chinese Zodiac, the Rooster signifies honestly and fortitude, both physically and morally. The rooster animal totem is also thought of to be very bossy, but not in a bad way. Tomorrow at the Rooster, I plan to bring something to test your physical fortitude, and you can decide who to let be theContinue reading “McAfee is bringing the meaning of The Rooster – Pre-Blast 10.15.19”

McAfee @ The Silo – Back to Basics Beast Mode: 9.23.19
Catfish called me out on Saturday that I had not been to North Posh, aka The Silo in a while. This is true, but to my defense I have been posting more inside 265 since Nino and I decided to split the region to try to adequately attend as many workouts as possible. All excusesContinue reading “McAfee @ The Silo – Back to Basics Beast Mode: 9.23.19”

Last week we got the announcement for Week 3 of the Iron Pax Challenge and it was the first, (and now we know only) timed AMRAP workout.

Battle of the Sexes at the Chopper BB – 8.23.19
In honor of my upcoming Gender Reveal Party on Friday evening I decided to bring a little bit of that flavor to the Chopper on Friday.
