Naked Man Moleskine:

This workout is an absolute beatdown.  It is a mental test from the beginning with the 100 burpee start.  YHC always struggles to keep up a strong pace throughout this hour of pain, and that was what prevented me from improving my score this quarter.  However, a few of our guys made serious improvements from last time.  #tclaps to Coach K, Rump Roast and Sally for showing huge improvement over the last three months.  Let’s all work hard to be better next time.  For some of us that might mean improving mental toughness.

#Tclaps to Pow Pow for making this his first F3 beatdown ever.  They’re not all like this.

Thanks to Oatmeal for EHing Pow Pow and to Ant Man for bringing the speaker and a playlist.  The playlist got much better reviews than Teasip’s at our first Fitness Test.

We’ll roll this back out in three months.  Be preparing.

Naked Man Moleskin:

We all learned that it is going to take a lot of work to make serious improvement from 1 quarter to the next.  Now it is time to put that work in.  We need to push ourselves even harder on Mondays and Thursdays to make the running easier the next time we do the Mustang.  We all need to improve on push-ups too.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

MOLESKIN:
Random mumble chatter and Rump’s moans every time a run was announced.  When the burpees with niplers were announced the naming of the exercise began by trying to combine the two in some way. None of which stuck.  YHC had the epiphany a day later to refer to the new exercise as the Pamela Anderson to which Thundelips recommended CJ Anderson (PA’s character in Baywatch).  Either way, I recommend doing them again, however this time in slow motion in a bathing suit or at least while going Chippendale.  BTW, YHC did submit the exercise for submission into the official exercise listing.

Pre-Q:
PAX were instructed to arrive 5 minutes early this morning, and all were present right on time. F3 Nation dedicated workouts today to raising awareness about men’s mental health, specifically suicide and depression. Given that most suicides are middle-aged men…it’s something we can’t keep ignoring.

Tha Thang:
Dirty Mc-Cuss Word of Choice

Two full suicides: start short for the first one; start long for the second
Burpees x10
Hand-Release Merkins x12
Burpees x10
E2K x12
Burpees x10
Lunges x12
Burpees x10
Plank Jacks x12

Repeato 2 more times
Burpees x9

All in all – we did 129 burpees, one for every person that will kill themselves today.

Mumblechatter:
As with most of YHC’s Q’s, mumblechatter was restricted by the nature of the beast. splash promised us a burpee-free Q next Wednesday. AlrightAlright broke the tension with a penis joke on the “start short finish long” suicides. Him and Special Sauce tried making a truce on the third round of suicides, which fell through pretty quickly. Spread was the only one man enough to embrace the final 9 burpees without whining. Princess Turtlehead reminded the PAX that I warned everybody it wasn’t an ideal workout for a new guy. Disclaimer was given. Some moans and groans throughout as PAX figured out the pattern, but I definitely wouldn’t rank this amongst the worst of my Qs.

We wrapped up with the naming ceremony of our FNG Craig, now Stingray. He’s from Mississippi, owned a copy of “Flaming Lips” as his first CD, and was a journalist in college. Welcome, sir.
