Boot camp style workout. At Woodland Park. Two large Playgrounds, Frisbee Golf Course, 1 Mile Dirt Track, HUGE Field.  Plenty of space here to craft a diabolical smokefest for even the strongest PAX.

Entrance is off East Boundary. Kip Boulis Drive.

SATURDAYS always followed up with 2nd F (fellowship) at Lamplight Cafe and Bakery located at 121 W. Indiana ave. Great opportunity to get to know members of F3Toledo and refuel from the workout.

    The Thang:

    Perform as many reps as possible in 8 minutes
    After every 25 reps, run 25 yards out and back totaling 50 yards

    Rest 2 minutes between sets

    Set 1 – Thrusters w/coupon (8 min)
    Set 2 – Curls w/ coupon (8 min)
    Set 3 – Russian KB swings w/ coupon (8 min)
    Set 4 – Man Maker w/ coupon (8 min)
    *Coupon=concrete block ~ 25lbs.

    Total score = set 1 + set 2 + set 3 + set 4

    Bourbon measured out 25 yards and setup the cones and concrete blocks. We went over the standards and form and the order of the exercises. Then got to work.

    Doing this in a group setting is key. When your body and mind want to give up, you see your brothers pushing through and pushing their limits and keep going yourself. We all busted our tails and left nothing in the gas tank. Casper and Bourbon didn’t participate in the challenge, but were there to help keep reps and motivate.

    Reflecting on this morning, it was an awesome experience. To see how hard these men can push themselves and break the boundaries and limits they didn’t know they could is amazing to watch.

    Pre-Beatdown Runners
    Q*Bert led Bambi, and Dutch for an early run before the normal Saturday beatdown.
    Mission: run a 5k.
    Many pax were doing Iron Pax challenge at the same time, Q*Bert determined a 5k wasn’t enough compared to the challenge the other men were facing. We completed 4.3 miles at approx 9:20 pace. From The Fortress to The Wall, down through Orleans park and back in time for the beatdown.

    The Thang:
    Started with Mission, 5 Principles and the Disclaimer.

    We had an opposing V course set up with a total of 6 stations and two 20 yard sprint zones on each end. We had 3 rounds planned and different workout each round at the stations. Followed by picking up a football and sprinting for the last 20 yards to the endzone where you would perform an endzone dance.

    Ended with COT and prayer. The six was Buttermaker.
