14 completely insane and pain-seeking beasts came out to Olympus today to train as if they were seeking approval from the Gods. Even the mighty Hercules would have been smoked after trying to keep up with the Pax today.

Strong work all around. At F3, as I learned from Bananas “you just can’t escape the suck” and that was clearly evident today. This group of men was hard to keep up with as each person was giving it their all.
Welcome Andy Love, FNG (Cupid) as you were Olympus’ second FNG. It was nice to have a new face and hope to see you out at more F3 sites!
After all the bicep work and having to hold on the KB during the Catch Me If You Can’s, it is difficult to type! So sound off in the comment section below! Q’s forearms are smoked!!
T-Claps to Gullah for a strong Co-Q as well! It is an honor to plan these workouts with you and an honor to workout with such amazing individuals.
Respectfully,
The Hoff and Gullah
