The Thang:
Strategy Game: divide up the PAX into two teams.
Each team will send one person to the middle of the field to select 1 of 10 exercises of various degrees of difficulty “out of a hat” and will decide for their team if they’re going to run to the 10yd line and do 10 reps, or go to 100yd line for 100 reps or go to the 40yd line for 40 reps, etc, basically trying to pick where the exercise falls into rank 1 through 10 of difficulty. You cannot repeat a yard line. First team who chooses the best order and finishes first wins the Beatdown Field Selection challenge.
Observations: YHC adopted this workout from one Jenner led at Sparta, dubbed “The Holy Grail” in reference to the scene from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Grail Knight: “But choose wisely, for while the true Grail will bring you life, the false Grail will take it from you.” While one team beat the other, both put in a strong effort and finished all 550 reps of the workout.
CoT: From the latest F3 State of the Nation Email titled Freed to Lead in 2021:
“PAX, it’s time to crack open a can of CANDOR and dish out a hard truth the world around us lost sight of in 2020. Our days on the BIG BALL are numbered. That’s why HIMs don’t live by chance; we live by choice. We choose to down the DRP in hopes that our collective brotherhood might IMPACT our neighborhoods more than politics, prejudice, or any global pandemic.
“As we face whatever challenges lie ahead, let’s remember who we are. We are F3 NATION. There’s a reason we make our DOWNPAINMENTS in the GLOOM. We don’t need it sunny and warm for us to put in the work. We don’t need things to be perfect for us to be PURPOSEFUL. We are DISRUPTORS who have been FREED TO LEAD, and we resolve to be the change we want to see in 2021.
“GBA!”
