Island Hopping at the Mustang

December 14, 2018

WHEN: 12/14/2018
QIC: Zook
PAX: Yanni, Duplo, Marky Mark, Stop Drop and Roll, Zook

The past few days in NC have been awful. Snow, sleet, schools cancelled/delayed. It hasn’t been hard to find a reason to fartsack that’s for sure. With that said, YHC sent out the call Thursday for the men of F3 to get back on the wagon. 5 PAX answered that call. I think another 2 more for extra credit but like Bigfoot, I can neither confirm nor deny that sighting.

WARM-UP

  • 10 WMH (IC)
  • 10 Sprinklers (IC)
  • 10 Arm Circles (IC)
  • 10 Arm Circles — reverse (IC)

THE THANG

  • Today’s theme was inspired by a neighbor who had the horrendous luck of being stuck in Key West this week because of flight cancellations. That must have sucked right? During that time he and his wife spent a day going through all the different islands in the keys. With that, we would do the same at the mustang:
    • 15 (or so) unique islands in all the different parking lots of the school. We would travel in some form from island to island, do 10 merkins (single count), 10 squats (single count), and 10 core movements (IC). To mix it up at each island would be a different variation of that exercise
    • Merkin variations
      • Standard, Wide Grip, Close Grip, Hand Release, Explosive (now to be known as douche-bag merkins — great story, ask someone who was there)
    • Squat variations
      • Standard, wide, close, prisoner, jump
    • Core variations
      • LBC’s, American Hammer, WWIIs, Heel to heaven, Peter Parker, Parker Peter, Flutter Kicks, Randys

MARY

  • No Time

Announcements

  • Congrats to Stop Drop and Roll for completing the global PAX challenge with his last stop at the mustang.

So it seems every week now, YHC has some type of issue that he “thinks” he has to fix. This week its my sons loose tooth that is DRIVING ME CRAZY!! The thing is just barely hanging there and I don’t care what it takes but I just want to pull the dang thing out (yeah I have issues). Of course like any 6 year old, mys on could care less about what “I” want and all he continues to say to me is “Daddy, Let It Be”. I mean how many times as fathers, husbands or men do we just jump into things because of this innate need to fix something that doesn’t need to be fixed? I really had to think about this last night and if I had to guess, that’s something that we all probably need to work on. By no means is it a bad thing to want to fix the things you see broken in this world but definitely take a minute and ensure what you are trying to fix, is really broken. Until next time. Aye!
