   Covered the 3F’s, Mission, Principles, and Disclaimer.

   PAX: Stark, Hazmat, Lamar, Mile High, Dutch, Bourbon, Gepetto, Tupac, Huckleberry, Landslide, Huffy, Woodstock

   Q: Woodstock

   It was planned as a BIRTHDAY BASH for YHC’s 38th, but came to find out we had 4 celebrations/milestones to attend to – HAZMAT’s 41st birthday and 100th post, Huffy’s 100th post, and my birthday. We also found out during COT that Mile High had recently turned 40. A great beatdown filled with celebrations and snow ensued!

   We started by “celebrating” the 2 known birthdays by doing 19 merkins in cadence using strict cadence form/commands to total 38. I then had HAZMAT choose an exercise for his birthday, he chose LBC’s so we did 41 LBC’s OYO.

   YHC likes surprises, so I broke out the F3 Beatdown Deck and had the goal of getting through it in its entirety, and to meet the new Nan’tan’s standard of proper cadence for as much as possible. Deck was used as follows:

   Face cards at value, J = 11, Q = 12, K = 13, A = 14

   Hearts – some type of cardio centric exercise at Q’s discretion – exercises in rotation were sprints, bear crawls, SSH, and Mtn Climbers. SSH and Mtn Climbers were done in proper cadence. I set up 3 cones approximately 10 yards apart in a triangle for Bear Crawl laps (each lap counted as 3 “exercises”), and cones were approximately 20 yards for the sprints. I believe the counts of each were as follows – 18 20 yard sprints, 18 ten yard bear crawls (including a Queen pull for 4 laps – that was brutal), and a lot of 4 count SSH and Mtn Climbers.

   Spades – all flutter kicks, all in cadence. Standard deck total counts are 104 reps, so 208 SSH.

   Clubs – started with OYO Lt Dans, but in the interest of time switched to OYO Prisoner Squats. Believe the counts were 40 Lt Dans and 64 Prisoner Squats.

   Diamonds – YHC’s FAVORITE – Merkins. I know we did 11 OYO at the end of the beatdown due to time constraints but I believe the rest (93) were all done in cadence. that is 186 from the cadence, plus the 11 OYO, plus the 38 pre-deck for a total of 235 merkins. The perfect gift!

   Oh, and 2 jokers were included for 10 OYO burpees.

   Everyone pushed through, even the 15 minute turbo push at the end which gave absolutely zero rest to finish the deck.

   COR, NOR, and the 6 were next – Landslide was the 6 and recounted how he was EH’d and what F3 means to him (hint #morethanaworkout). COT was held.

   Was a beautiful morning to celebrate my 38th year with this group of HIM’s, meant a lot to see you all in the gloom working hard, mumble chattering, and just being present. Thank you all!
