Exploring the Exicon

All All MECA Backblasts

April 14th, 2016 By AstroVan

27 men came out on this crisp spring morning! Arrived early to set up and got some early than expected company in the gloom when #MajorPain showed up at 5 to get his jump rope and kettle bell on! Lots of comments on the cones that were visible on the drive in (mostly from #Gump). Let’s find out what they were for …

Mosey to parking lot in front of Ridge Road Middle School. With all the cars flying in late, I swear the PAX doubled from when we started the mosey to COP! Promise no Merkins and they come out of the woodwork!

Lots of Chatter and even a frisbee almost taking YHC’s head off #showtoknow

Mosey to back of RRMS to the hill in front of the track.

5-1 Ladder – Hurpees (no Merkin Burpee) at top and jump squats at bottom (chatter quieted a bit)

Mosey to RRMS entrance. Break off into 4 teams.

Team 1 – Donkey Kicks
Team 2 – Box Jumps on Concrete bench
Team 3 and 4 – Sprint intervals around parking lot
Flapjack

Mosey to Bus Lot where a soccer ball laid in the gloom of the 3rd world soccer field and 6, 55 lb. 5 gallon buckets were lined up.

Team 1 and 2 play Bear vs Crab Soccer (One team bear crawls and one team crab walks. Goalies plank. When a goal is scored you switch. (YHC found this on the F3 Exicon page and could not pass it up

Team 3 and 4 split into groups of 4. 2 at the first basketball hoop and 2 at the third bball hoop. Group 1 does WW2 sit-ups and Group 2 does alternating shoulder touches while planking. One member of the team carries the bucket from one goal to the other, alternating carrier.

Do this for 5 minutes then switch.

Straight forward suicide using basketball hoops

Mosey to RRMS wall for Peoples Chair. Tried to start a series of leg lifts while in this position, but a number of the PAX slipped straight to the ground due the fine landscaping of dirt and pebbles at RRMS. Sorry fella’s. Audible called and 10 air presses in cadence were performed.

Mosey to Mary, taking a bit of a circuitous route to take advantage of cones placed (by others) in front of Highland Creek ES. Serpentine!

  1. Nice work everyone. Forgot to mention and thank the PAX who earned extra credit and carried the buckets back to my car!

  2. Thanks @AstroVan! Well done and the variety made the time fly by.

    Tclaps to @Grinder for an impressive goal scored by completely laying out to knock it in! And Happy Birthday as well.

    1. My nip is still stinging from that one, totally worth it though!

  3. Nice work @Astro Van. Loved the soccer game. My lower back is thrilled about that 55lb bucket carry as well. I’m still trying to figure out what an Exicon is though.

    Happy birthday @Grinder. I still remember the day you were born. I was just about to finish my junior year at college. Thanks for keeping us all young.

    1. Don’t know that was sarcasm but i will take the bait. Exicon= list of exercises on F3nation.com

      1. I’m still pretty new here, but isn’t that the Lexicon?

        1. “EXICON: F3’s Exercise Lexicon.” – sourced from the Lexicon.

          1. There you go. Looks like I learned something new today. Only 371 more confusing F3 terms left before I’ve got them all down.

        2. I didn’t know that either, but I looked it up and “Exicon” is an official entry in the F3 Lexicon.

          Thanks @AstroVan for working out our minds as well! #bonus
