Q 101 Course – How to Q a F3 Workout

Q 101 Course – How to Q a F3 Workout

On Saturday June 4th at 6:00AM outside the Panera in the Arboretum we will launch F3’s introductory Q course – Q 101.

One of the 5 core principles of F3 is the workouts “Are led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary”

The first half of this sentence speaks to the core mission of F3: Our mission is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership. We, as a group, are accountable to each other to grow and energize male leadership which starts by leading other men in a workout. Your active leadership is the cost of attendance to the F3 workouts. The whole ecosystem of F3 does not work unless we collectively support it.

The second half of the sentence is true, training and certification are not required. However, coaching and guidance are strongly encouraged. The Q 101 course is specifically designed to provide you the coaching, guidance and eventual comfort level you need to lead other men in a workout. Q ­101 is designed to teach all pax the proper way to lead a F3 workout. Q­101 is a hands-­on learning experience. Q­ 101 can be incorporated into any, properly designed F3 workout, and is intended to provide the pax with an example of a proper workout, including Disclaimer, Structure of the Workout, Position Assignments (Q, Sweeper, etc.), How to Count, COT (name­o­rama), and Ball of Man.

On Saturday June 4th, we ask for any and all PAX who feel this training would be helpful to them to join. We will start at 6AM with about a 45 to 60 minute workout, broken up by instruction and coaching on how to lead. We will follow up with breakfast on the Panera patio for Q&A and discussion. We will conclude by 8AM so you have time to grab your 2.0 and head to F3 Dads.

If you can join, please HC in the comments or just come that morning. Site Q’s – please encourage those at your workouts to join us. This is open to all F3 including Area 51 and SOB.

Looking forward to it.
