Who the HELL works out at 5:30am, rain or shine?
This is a very good question I get often. F3 is a men’s group that doesn’t have many rules, but one of them is that the workout is always outside. That can turn a lot of guys away. I get it. It can be (very) cold, or (very) wet. So who does show up everyContinueContinue reading “Who the HELL works out at 5:30am, rain or shine?”

I remember my first post at the O…so excited and nervous (so out of shape). We did so many exercises with weird names and everyone was talking in that crazy Lexicon. I knew this was going to be awesome or we are going to be made fun of by everyone, so glad it is theContinueContinue reading “Digiorno VQ at the “O” #TempleofGloom, I am going to Steal your Hearts or just make them beat faster. #F3Counts “

01-17-18 – Backblast – 5 HIMs became reacquainted with our old friend Murph at the #TheMutt #frozenblender
As I rolled up to the #TheMutt this morning and saw one motherrucker rucking along and only one other car I was afraid my preblast scared the rest of the PAX off. Alas, I was mistaken; Glen Ross rolled in right on time and Diguorno took Tiger’s place by flying in on two wheels. WeContinueContinue reading “01-17-18 – Backblast – 5 HIMs became reacquainted with our old friend Murph at the #TheMutt #frozenblender”

01-17-18 – Preblast for the #frozenblender
As I sit here contemplating my sanity for even considering working out in negative degree wind chills and 0 degree temps consider this for a moment: You’ll burn more calories – As the body works harder to regulate its core temperature among the elements, you’ll burn a few more calories during your wintry workout. You’ll strengthenContinueContinue reading “01-17-18 – Preblast for the #frozenblender”
