Rinse and Repeat

Jog to center of soccer field and gather around candy bucket (i.e., temptation). Gaze across field at tombstones placed at each corner. PAX invited to take a piece of candy if they dared, before hitting the tombstones.
ROUND 1
Tombstone 1 – 10 burpees
Tombstone 2 – 20 LBCs
Tombstone 3 – 30 calf raises
Tombstone 4 – 40 squats

Back to candy. Again the invitation was given, and at least 1 accepted…

ROUND 2
Tombstone 1 – 10 burpees
Tombstone 2 – 20 monkey humpers
Tombstone 3 – 30 calf raises
Tombstone 4 – 40 squats

Back to candy. Again the invitation was given, but no one took.

ROUND 3
Tombstone 1 – 20 burpees
Tombstone 2 – 30 monkey humpers
Tombstone 3 – 40 calf raises
Tombstone 4 – 50 squats

Back to candy. Again the invitation was given, but no one took. YHC commended the PAX for posting and for being a part of F3. YHC then encouraged the PAX to continue pushing other men to join us, despite the excuses they give. We all struggle with temptations on a daily basis that make it harder for us to do the things we know we should be doing (e.g., getting better). The temptation to stay in bed, to put work over fitness, to over-indulge in food/drinks, etc. The tombstones were also obviously symbolic. We need to resist temptation so we can be around longer for our M’s and 2.0’s!

Finally, it was time for a little Halloween fun. All PAX lined up and did the Zombie Walk across the field.

Per F3 Exicon (http://f3nation.com/exercises/), the Zombie Walk is a lunge walk over a long distance, intended to cause the PAX to groan and stumble like the Walking Dead.

We came back across the field doing the Frankensteins, which F3 Exicon says is standing with arms straight out and raising each leg as high as you can towards your arms as you walk forward.
