at the [place] of brotherhood…

on a day designated to celebrate the life of a great and prophetic man, 12 PAX showed early and showed out to celebrate in our unique fashion. With a guest appearance from Stagecoach, YHC felt the need to make sure he felt a little burn… plus the men of Basecamp and it went down like this!

The Thang:

After a quick demo, the VSF lead off to the far softball field for a circle up COP…

7x Burpees OYO -> Mtn Climber → 6x Burpees OYO -> Imperial walker →
5x Burpees OYO –> SSH → 4x Burpees OYO – merkin →
3x Burpees OYO – Carolina dry dock → 2x Burpees OYO – squats → 1x Burpee OYO

MOSEY TO BLEACHERS

Divide into 3 Groups
⇒ 20 dips -> 20 incline pushups -> 20 LBCS
⇒ RINSE REPEAT for 7 mins

PLANK-o-rama then, back at it.

PLANK O RAMA

Mosey to the Wall → for a lot of timed sitting’!

Moleskin:

– After a brief recap with a few faithful, its evident how strong the men of BC have become. Many are visably different in appearance (thats once and all), but more importantly, in their physical strength and endurance. AYE men!

– Should not be ignored that YHC believes that he caught a glimpse of ‘Coach (FNG Basecamp) at least once catching his breath… maybe it was the due and slight mist in the air, but I believe he enjoyed it!

– Our favorite BC WD, Robin Hood, is looking incredibly strong these days! And his smile, and that of many others, at the end of every post, affirms YHC’s belief that this movement is real!

-Welcome Uncle Buck!

YHC was a bit overwhelmed to look around, on this special day, and realize that ~50 years ago, the likelihood of YHC, a man of color, leading 11 PAX of other decent/ethnicities through an hour of encouragement and activity would have been NIL! And, therefore, the vision proclaimed in our nation’s capital 50 years and some odd months ago, is being realized day-by-day. YHC is proud to call each PAX of F3 a brother! Plea made to continue to encourage those that look like us, and those who don’t, to join this fine organization and build better men.

Great words Passport. F3 is special and different for many reasons; one of which is that we are truly open and inviting to all men. Black/white, young/old, workout studs / couch potatoes, white collar / blue collar. [We even let Brits and Scots like Bulldog and Haggis join the fun!]. I’ve never seen anything quite like it.
