Next we did a set til failure and then ran a 6-piece. We rotated the PAX each time as we would each say something we appreciate about them and then that PAX picked the next set.
I cannot take credit for the design, Coors Qed this on 8/11/2023 I highly recommend going back and reading his great BB from that day. Quite a few of the same guys were here today and remembered the drill. Not too tough of a beatdown just extensive and a reminder to keep going to failure not to give up til you can’t! But then don’t apologize when you can’t, just turn to a brother for help/encouragement.
We started quietly with 25 Lot sprints to honor Nemo. Wish we could be running alot more 25 is tragically young. He was not a part of our group for long, but he was amongst us for a reason, and we are pushed by his tragic decisions to reevaluate where we are all at and how we’re doing to pick each other up.
The design of the beatdown was to build each other up through words of encouragement and affirmation. 20 seconds each, nothing crazy extensive, but every PAX there walks away feeling better about themselves and enriched by what this group offers. Wish you could’ve been there? I bet you do! Don’t worry I’ve included a briefer list at the bottom so you too can feel appreciated. We all need to be doing our part to look out for the ones lagging behind, struggling to come out. I don’t want to go out and say there are other suicidal PAX in our group, but there are certainly a couple guys right now who are at the least not present in our group and need to be reminded why they come out. Men going through struggles with marriage, children, work, and other stresses need to be constantly head locked not to just get their body moving, but their mental strong. Getting up before the sun is hard, but it can mean the difference between ending the day feeling all the stresses and crap of life and ending it a champion because you started the day right and then snowballed good and wise decisions.
Also, did anyone notice there were 7 coupons in the circle today? That wasn’t an accident. That was for Nemo. A) As a reminder that we are missing a brother, but also B) as a Suttle reminder that the PAX who’s struggling with telling the dark thoughts to buzz off could be right next to you in the circle. Don’t be afraid to be vulnerable, we’ve all had to go there and you’re not alone. Better to be a friend that feels embarressed than a loner.
Enjoy: Pay it forward by finding a brother in need of encouragement…

It was nice to be back at the helm of a workout. It’s been a while since I last Q’d. I included some typical Coors’ staples and tried some new things. Some worked, some didn’t. Don’t be afraid to try new things, though. It wasn’t my hardest Q, but I think it got the job done.
It was cool to see some old and new faces at the workout. I missed being out there with everyone. I’ve had a hard time getting out of bed to attend the workouts. I plan on that stopping and being at Troy as much as possible.
It’s been a great 8 years of growth. I would not be the man I am today without F3. This is so much more than a workout group. It’s a brotherhood. I couldn’t have imagined developing bonds with men from all different walks of life prior to my first post. I’m looking forward to continued growth. Thanks for letting me lead.

100 pull overs IC
13 weighted pickle pointers IC

Here is to making good habits—100 beatdowns, Q-ed 1/4 of them (25). I feel like I have formed a good habit! The PAX did awesome today—the workout wasn’t as rough as it could have been, the wheel was kind, but it did the thang! Thanks to PAX who brought food to the blessing box —looking forward to 101—thanks for letting me lead!! #syitg @nut-house
