WarmOrama:
Our Q from the Q sheet was not in the parking lot. There was no pre-blast. There was no request for a backup ahead of time. So we adapted to being ghosted by doing a little Q-by-committee, starting with the warmup.
Motivators from 7, Imperial Walkers, Through the Tunnels, Don Coyote/Quixote, Merkinds, Seal Claps, Moroccan Night Clubs, Overhead claps,
Tha Thang:
Head to the field for a Death Star format workout.

20 Monkey Humpers (called by Count Dorothy)
20 American Hammers (called by Honker)
Suggestion box … we are in the stadium, we should do bleachers (your suggestion was noted Gilligan as dumb, so we did it). 1 bleacher lap.
Back to the flag for some Mary. There were 3 fly-overs during the workout, so we continued with alternating 3 burpees in between each ab exercise to get to 15. Abs were: Boat Canoe, WWII, LBCs, and X-men crunches.
COT:
Count-o-rama, Name-o-rama, AAR, Announcements, Pledge, Prayer
AAR: Good format for an on the fly Q, effective at getting the heart rate up and keeping it there.
Part of the reason we have a pre-blast as a standard (but NOT a rule/requirement) is for the leader to plan and prepare. We are a leadership group, and a servant leadership group at that, so taking the time to plan and lead is a way to serve the small workout group for men that is part of the F3 Mission.
Announcements: 10 year celebration on Nov 8, start submitting the requests with whatever bosses need to be aware of your absence, because you will be gone all day (and the wee early parts of Sunday morning too).
Prayers: Families and kids affected by flooding in Texas. Missing PAX. Thankful for our many blessings and this group to push us and hold us accountable.
