“Ryan Lochte will be stripped of his medals” Dutch, 8/19/2016

All All MECA Backblasts

August 19th, 2016 By Maximus_MECA

It was just another morning in paradise.  Been a busy week, since hitting the beach for a few days and has taken YHC out of his routine a tad.  Been busy catching up, a seemingly never ending task which appears larger once away for a few days.   Never the less, overcoming resistance YHC got back in the groove, got out of bed (always a good start), despite awakening at 3:00 am and not getting back to sleep – happens at this time of life (need to just deal with it – no excuses)  and was ready to Q this late summer morning.

Arrived at Tradition at 5:25 and noted in addition to our normal burly qbell men there appeared to be some lean runners in various attire, headlamps, glowing uniforms and socks they proudly displayed and discussed.  This is the BRR team training.  5:30 arrived and the BRR runners seemed to not have a care in the world.  It was 5:30 though so YHC needed to declare the time and start the Kbell beatdown – the runners were on their own time!

Here’s how it went;

Mosey, warm-ups, 15 of SSH’s, IST’s cotton pickers, power planks, plank jacks, arm circles, michael phelps

Beatdown 10 then 15

Set 1 – sumo squats, back lunge with simultaneous curls, goblet squats, toe raises, front lunges – wrapup with 10 power planks

Set 2 – shoulder presses, kbell swings, arm extensions, curls, power planks

set 3 – Lat pulls, lawn mower pulls, clean and presses

Set 4 – variety pack of 15 curls, shoulder presses, kbell swings

Mary – w with bell, pretzel sticks, low flutter

Static stretch – touch toes while sitting one leg at a time, ball-up – press out

Moleskin:

Kudos to all for participating

@durden for joining in and prayers as he starts his year at UNCC and with ROTC!  Great!

@ dutch – thank you for sharing the scoop that Ryan Lochte will be stripped of his olympic medals as a consequence of his drunken actions of vandalism and a false police report.  Not the smartest.  Embarasses US Team.

@Sensei – prayers for his brother-in-law as he recovers from injury

@dutch – YHC thought about naming the back lunge while simultaneously doing curls – move learned at Burn Boot Camps’ free Community Saturday workout – the Dutch Overachiever – but you already have one exercise in your name – “the dutch cucumber” so this exercise will be simply named “the overachiever”.

Have a great day!

  1. Sound off below

  2. Interesting that when we got back the kettle bell crew just stood there talking for 5 minutes……..Must have been discussing the Fit Community Of Moms workouts they have been attending lately………I’m truly saddened that Dutch has converted Maximus. F3 is supposed to be about creating male leaders in the community, not about getting men to go to womens workouts……Dutch……..youve gone a little off track brother…….

    1. He he

    2. I think he was distracted watching you run up and take your shirt off, Maximus just suddenly stopped talking as you approached!

      1. Well that is a sight that many wish they could unseen……..

  3. @dingo – you are very funny. @pax – was there a 5 minute break in our beatdown? I was a tad disorganized today but do not recall that!

    Re: Burn boot camp. When @dingo participated in the run for your life 5k on a Saturday morning, with WOMEN running also, was that a betrayal of F3? It was community outreach. I will plan to wear my F3 tradition shirt to the once/month Burn Boot camp I attend (1/3 of participants are men) and look to recruit an FNG. My heart belongs to F3 – but I outreach also.

    Nuf said!

    1. Lol!! That 5k did not advertise as “A fit community of Moms”……..

      Nuffsaid

  4. Great beatdown Maximus. I especially enjoyed the imperial cotton pickers

  5. Fine Q once again Maximus! I applaud u for your open minded outreach approach- without which our F3 brothers would not experience the pain of “power planks” and other high impact excercises and ideas to make the pax better. Keep bringing the creativity brother!

    What time are you heading to the coed burn tomorw? – I’ll meet u there along w a potentially a few other F3ers – expanding the outreach!

  6. 9:00 am – you will recognize me by my F3 Tradition T shirt.

    BTW – @Dutch did you notice this mysterious, alleged 5 minute workout gap today? Or was it a continuous, non-stop beatdown that started promptly at 5:30 am?

    1. I recall a smooth well transitioned highly engaging intensely challenging consistently moving all pax with shirts on -except for a majorinteruptus style workout.

      Ok I’ll wear my shirt too. Any other pax wishing a severe beatdown with no breaks and high cal burn are surely welcome!

      1. OK ladies, call it “outreach” if you must. That will not change that Burn Bootcamp is a workout for “fit moms”. The jokes just write themselves……

  7. LOL today! Good ones!

    Must admit I was thrown off come to think of it with the Major, Durden joining in and the BRR team meeting adjacent to the hard working kettlebellers. #wonthappenagain

  8. Thanks for letting me jump in guys! Needed to get some work done on my soccer arms.

    1. @Durden it was good to see you arrive forever before the others, and then lift some bells while they ran off crying!
