Crucible Back Blast – 7.24.18

When I set out to start this Black Ops site, I wanted to bring something a little different to the PAX> I wanted to have a post during the week where men could come to get challenged, push themselves and begin to better understand what they are physically and mentally capable of. Plus I wantedContinueContinue reading “Crucible Back Blast – 7.24.18”

The Incubator BackBlast 7/16, Poshlands #Pyramids #ServantLeadership

Despite the threat of thunderstorms, conditions held steady for a solid beat down at the Poshlands this morning! 72 degrees and cloudy with the ground damp from the previous night’s showers. Scratch-N-Dent and I pulled up to the gloom at 05:15. Four HIM were already mumblechatting as we walked up. A good sign. As timeContinueContinue reading “The Incubator BackBlast 7/16, Poshlands #Pyramids #ServantLeadership”

The Bridge – 4th of July 2018 Back Blast

It was a beautiful day.  Thirty pax participated in the army physical fitness test (APFT).  This wasn’t the typical go for 60 minutes workout but I like to think of it as “game day”.  This is where we get to see where our hard work has taken us so far. Just remember…THERE WERE NO FAILURESContinueContinue reading “The Bridge – 4th of July 2018 Back Blast”

Drumroll please…. I made an FNG spill today

My brother (Drumroll- FNG) gave me two awesome gifts for my 40th.  A surprise trip to Tampa for some horrible fishing and great beer, and his first post to an F3 workout.  I am not sure which meant more.   Ryan has supported me through this year, always listening to my stories about F3, andContinueContinue reading “Drumroll please….

BackBlast #theFOG Abacus Q 6/23/18 @poshlands

Fear slows me down from time to time. Driving home from today’s post I saw a small bird attacking a large predator bird. Do birds experience fear? I have no idea. I know that small bird was running the big bird and having a good go of it. The small bird appeared to be actingContinueContinue reading “BackBlast #theFOG Abacus Q 6/23/18 @poshlands”

“Fatter Amy” provided the Pax with the atmosphere for growth at the Incubator – 5.21.18 Back Blast

A week or two ago I realized that it had been a while since I had led a workout. Although I had been posting regularly, I had not done my due diligence a led my fellow brothers through some new and exciting exercises. When I realized this I took it upon myself to sign up toContinueContinue reading ““Fatter Amy” provided the Pax with the atmosphere for growth at the Incubator – 5.21.18 Back Blast”

5.16.18 Beatdown at The Bridge Back Blast

Yesterday was a long day, I mean long. After an early morning run, long day at work, swim lessons and my final meeting at church I was ready to go home. Only to find out that I was not going home, instead, I was going to meet friends for dinner and drinks, at 9 PM…ContinueContinue reading “5.16.18 Beatdown at The Bridge Back Blast”

The #Incubator Back Blast

I hate to brag, but as a world renowned author, this backblast may garner a lot of attention. OK, enough of that bullsh*t. We all know there are three HIMs reading this. Everyone else was either there, or doesn’t care what other guys did. But I gotta BB or it didn’t happen. So here youContinueContinue reading “The #Incubator Back Blast”

Posh Backblast #UncleRico Beatdown 4/18/2018

I decided to take the PAX back to 1980’s with some Motley Crue, Guns N Roses, and the one and only Phil Collins to name a few. Unfortunately what the 23 PAX didn’t know is Uncle Rico didn’t win the 1982 State Championship and the beat down was on. Warm Up Mosey with some HighContinueContinue reading “Posh Backblast #UncleRico Beatdown 4/18/2018”

BackBlast #theFog 3/24/18 Abacus B-Day Beatdown!

I was fortunate enough to circle the sun one more time, so today marked the celebration of Abacus (YHC) turning 41! Of course the beatdown included plenty of reps to 41!

Interesting lines in the song about playing for all the loniness that no oneContinueContinue reading “BackBlast #theFog 3/24/18 Abacus B-Day Beatdown!”

Preblast – #theFog 3/24/18 at #Poshlands ABACUS Birthday Q

First, before the Preblast, my vocabulary is not at Captain Insaneo levels. So, I will simply say THANK YOU! To the HIMs of F3 Louisville, your support, well wishes, best wishes, prayers (spoken and unspoken) mean more than my words can express. Eighty something workouts ago, I showed up at Poshlands looking for a workout.ContinueContinue reading “Preblast – #theFog 3/24/18 at #Poshlands ABACUS Birthday Q”

Backblast – 3/17 Swifty Q @ at the Posh, err… Veterans Park

3 Pax called an audible and met at Veterans Park for a no-frills beatdown. QIC: Swifty. Pax: Abacus, Dot YHC decided that with so few (but high quality) Pax, it was probably best if we kept things simple and spent most of our time in the parking lot where we met. So, after a quickContinueContinue reading “Backblast – 3/17 Swifty Q @ at the Posh, err… Veterans Park”
