Moleskin: It was an AARP meeting tonight with sunshine shinning in our Old Kentucky Home. The say imitation is the biggest form of flattery, however tonight's BD was more so inspired by laziness.

#f3-5k-2025 is this month! Let's have a great showing. Time, Talent, and Treasure are all ways we can ensure a successful event.
COT:
Laurna and their family.
Those we hold in our hearts.
This evening I shared the Jesus Prayer. It's a short prayer that can help put yourself in the right mindset as you begin to reflect and ask for God's Mercy.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, Have Mercy on me a Sinner.
F3 is built around the idea that their is a higher power than ourselves. Let us remember that we are not alone and that we must not leave anyone where we found them.
AISISOMSA
Origination of The Hard Mile:
The brain child of entrepreneur and hybrid endurance athlete Eric Hinman— a five-time Iron Man competitor who is known for sharing his training and nutritional wisdom online— the world’s toughest mile is at simple as it is sinister. Simple in that it only consists of four laps of a 400m track. Sinister in that you’re only ‘allowed’ to run the final lap, the preceding three laps are made up of a combination of burpee broad jumps, walking lunges and bear crawls. Sounds grim.

The THANG: 16 exercises laid out in a 16-team March Madness style bracket. The seed indicates the number of reps of that exercise. After a game was played (i.e. exercises performed), 3 PAX shot a free throw. If ANYONE made it, the higher seed wins and moves on to the next round, else the lower seed moves on.
After each round of games, the PAX run a suicide run on the b-ball court, with increasing reps of a designated exercise at each trip to the baseline. Suicide reps: Run to each and back to Baseline for exercises
Free throw line and back, 4 reps.
· Half line and back, 8 reps
· Opposite free throw line and back, 12 reps
· Full court and back, 16 reps

Moleskin: The temperature was at the sweet spot of 70-ish degrees. This is where it’s not too hot, not too cold, and just right for some questionable decision-making. With Murder Bunnies it only made sense to move the beatdown from the safe, dry parking lot to the lush, welcoming grass. Sure, it had rained recently, and sure, the grass was more of a swamp than a field, but what’s a little mud between friends?
As soon as the first set of merkins hit, I and many others realized this wasn’t just any mud, it was the kind of mud that clung to shoes, coupons, and many wore it which made us grown men question our life choices. But hey, it added resistance, right? Burpees turned into slip-and-slides, bear crawls felt like trench warfare, and every step came with the delightful squelch of a shoe losing the battle against the earth.
Next time, maybe we’ll just embrace the parking lot. Or not.

Announcements: Saturday special breakfast after beatdown, don't forget Bible Study at 6am. 5K, March Convergence
Devotional - James 1:19 So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath. Let us as men of integrity be the calming presence in our families, in our workplace, in the marketplace. Let us take the action of being patient, and by doing so, be powerful forces of good. For those around us, patience creates a better world. It fosters kindness, strengthens relationships, and allows grace to flow. When we practice patience, we reflect God’s love and give others space to grow. Patience is a discipline, an action, a choice.

Moleskin: This morning was a crisp 30-ish but felt like a teens kind of beatdown, the kind where your fingers and toes question all your life choices. But nothing like a little bitter cold wind to remind us we’re still alive! As always, an absolute privilege to beat up the flesh with this group of HIMs. The wind might’ve been trying to humble us, but we showed up, pushed through, and proved once again that comfort is overrated. Shoutout to everyone who lost feeling in his fingers and toes and still finished strong! Till next time, gents... stay warm, stay strong, and keep embracing the suck!

My 1 year maniversary, going to do 22 either IC or CC of everything, because I've lost 22 pounds.
I want us to think about Eulogies as we go through our beatdown - think about people who are alive, what Eulogy would you speak over them when they pass? What can we speak over them while still alive?
Read Ephesians 1:3 -- follow how the word blessed is used three times in one verse === learn the Greek word, EULOGEO is where we get the word eulogy.
EU means Good and LOGOS means Word - can we bless with Good Words?

Hobbs 1 year Manniversary...Full of gratitude for the past year of F3 and all the HIMS I have met.
Looking forward to the next year of F1 and absolutely getting after it!
Looking forward to the F2 at the BD's, Panera, parking lot coolers, Crash's(EAO F2) events, and much more!
Looking forward to constant reminder that there is one greater than ourselves and ending each BD with that F3 recognition.
I have never regretted attending a BD...and getting a little uncomfortable.
I appreciate all the support I've received before and after my VQ this evening. Great to be spending time with HIMS who are making me a better person. I appreciate you all.

@Hickory - offering 7.5% proceeds back to school/church/non-profit for allowing FootPrints Floors to do their flooring/remodel project - see him for details.
TAPS: For family and friends going through cancers and eye tumors, for job situations. And Gratitude for all our F3 HIM's.
DEVOTIONAL: Tonight, I want to talk about the power of gaining just 1%. In the journey of our faith, we sometimes overlook the significance of small steps. Yet, the Bible teaches us the value of steady, incremental growth. In Luke 13:19, Jesus compares the Kingdom of God to a mustard seed, which grows slowly but becomes larger than all the garden plants.
This concept of growing by just 1% can transform our spiritual lives. It’s about making a small daily commitment to be better than we were yesterday—whether it’s spending an extra minute in prayer, reading one more verse, or extending kindness in small ways.
Imagine the impact of improving by just 1% each day. Over time, these small changes compound, leading to profound growth in our faith, character, and relationships. We don’t need to seek giant leaps; instead, focus on the little steps, the 1% improvements that draw us closer to God and to the people around us.
Let us pray for the perseverance to grow bit by bit, trusting that God values every small effort we make in our walk with Him. AMEN.

Moleskin: The evening brought cool but manageable temperatures, with my car showing 27 degrees. Thankfully, the lack of wind and the coupon work kept us warm and focused. What a blessing it is to gather like this! I wanted to change things up so playlist was from the 90's - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7gANKl2nVRULxaiahwTSp2?si=bdf0b2571e2248c1
I pray that every man here tonight remains vigilant, continually reminding himself of just how blessed we truly are. Think about it, a group of strangers meeting in random parks and locations to work out with a cinderblock. Each of us has a different story, navigating unique valleys and scaling distinct mountains. Yet, the Lord has aligned our paths for a greater purpose. Let’s never fail to seek and fulfill that purpose.
Thank You, Jesus, for the men of F3 NKY. Strengthen us as we step into this sacred season of Christmas. Let us always remember the reason for this season and continue to destroy the flesh as we grow in spirit and purpose. Keep pushing, fellas!

A way in the wilderness? That’s not supposed to exist. Rivers in the desert? That’s impossible. But that’s the point, God specializes in the impossible, the unexpected, and the different. So, when God moves in your life in a way that doesn’t make sense — when He opens doors you didn’t expect or takes you down paths you didn’t plan — remember this: "Get used to different."

COT
ANNOUNCEMENTS - Christmas Party info in the XMAS channel, another bowling outing on 12/18 evening, Apple Bottom STEM judges needed, Yule Rush 12/28 7am, Exodus 90 Jan 20th
TAPS- Crash's best friend from college days passed away in the morning, Apple Bottom's family member death, all the PAX we know who are dealing with grief, Pig's wife's foot - and even so his appreciation for his wife and her devotion to her calling, and for Ace special intention prayer.
DEVOTIONAL - In Philippians 3:14, Paul writes, *“I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”* Notice that Paul says "press on." He’s talking about effort, endurance, and growth—physically, mentally, and spiritually. F3 isn't just about workouts. It's about becoming better men, husbands, fathers, and leaders. That requires pushing yourself. In fitness, you push past the pain. In fellowship, you show up even when it's inconvenient. In faith, you trust God to grow you in ways you can’t yet see. So, let me challenge you today—don’t settle for comfort. Push yourself. Whether it’s another rep in the gloom, reaching out to a brother in need, or surrendering your struggles to God, step into the challenge. Growth only happens when we lean into discomfort with faith that God is shaping us for His purpose. Let’s press on together!! **Aye?**

Moleskin: This morning was an unexpectedly perfect start weather wise. The "Snail Game" had potential in the game plan, but the execution? Well, let’s just say both teams proved winners. Good intentions led to great hustle; a little messy, but every HIM put in the work.
And yes, Fat Amy got a well-deserved remix. I didn’t want to set us on the endless quest for a hundred burpees, so we swapped in some varied coupon work, keeping our pace strong and adding a bit of fresh muscle burn to the routine. Then hit a couple rounds of the 'ol Killer B's.
Props to each of you who rolled out of bed and resisted the call of the covers, or that tree stand, on a Saturday morning. This steady heart-pumping session and the occasional "What’s next?" glance, kept us moving and sharpening each other. Here’s to showing up, putting in the work, and, as always, making the fellowship even sweeter!

Q -- @Ace
FNG's -- 0
MOLESKIN--- wet, wet, wet, did I mention wet. However, it was just drizzle - which made the wet kind of a nice wet. Mixed with sweat, we definitely ended wet. From dusk into gloom, so we advanced!
WARMORAMA --- 10 each --- Seal Claps - IC, Abe Bigodas - IC, Arm Circles - IC, Grass Grabbers - IC, Michael Phelps - OYO.
THANG 1 --- "Coupon to Curb" == All PAX will do same 30 of some exercise at the curb on one side of parking lot, then do 30 of another on other side of parking lot, then return to the starting curb. MOT between curbs = Rifle Carry.
Lawnmower Pulls - IC |Rifle Carry| Rocky Balboas - IC |Rifle Carry|
V-UPS - CV on my up |Rifle Carry| Thrusters - CV on my up |Rifle Carry|

MARY --- High Plank Shoulder Tap Relay to 150, Freddy Mercuries, and gentle mosey to/from retrieving my F3 sweat jacket from far end of parking lot.
COT - Announcements as normal - probably need to communicate how to get money in for the Christmas party.
TAPS - safe evening for all the kiddos. Much gratitude for all the men of F3 that have gone before us to make tonight possible!
Devotional and Prayer - today is celebrated by some as Reformation Day, where 507 years ago Martin Luther posted his 95 Thesis on the cathedral door in Wittenberg Germany. I am mindful as a devoted Follower of Christ that it is okay to question the religion, to validate that the leaders and their teaching is in line with Christ's teachings and full of the Power of the Holy Spirit. May we keep our priorities straight, Christ first, keep advancing!

Moleskin: What a stellar evening at #the-executive with the perfect 77 degrees and a breeze that was almost polite. Tuesdays and Thursdays are the highlight of my week, thanks to the top-notch fellowship with this group of men. Looking back at last year, we pretty much owned the parking lot, it was prime real estate for getting down to business. But tonight? It was clear that F3 is growing, and apparently, we are outgrowing our humble lot!
Big shout out to @Billboard for suggesting we take over the field, opening up a whole new world of beatdown opportunities. I’d like to say I captured every new enhancement…but let’s be real, I might have missed a few things in the “plan.” One thing I’m sure of: we got our fill of murder bunnies!

Moleskin: What an incredible evening filled with joy, sweat, and God's grace. The Lord blessed us with a little rain—just enough to remind us of His presence. @Sup shared the wonderful news that he is cancer-free, a true victory and reason for praise! He also led the warm-up with such energy—thank you, @Sup! Today, as we celebrated Constitution Day and my one-year F3 anniversary, I couldn’t help but reflect on how faithful God has been. We capped off the night with an F2 pizza party, and I am genuinely thankful. I don’t say this lightly—I am truly blessed, and I thank God for allowing my path to cross with these great men. All glory to Him!

The Thang
Numbers 1 to 6 are written on a ball. Volley the ball to a PAX. The number that is closest to the PAX that catches it, is the exercise.
HOWEVER, the person who volleys, does rifle or farmer carry coupon around all the other PAX while that exercise is being completed.
1 High Plank punches 31 OYO
2 Low to High Planks 31 OYO
3 Half Bird Dog Merkins 31 OYO
4 Bear Crawl Merkins 31 OYO
5 Overhead Presses 31 OYO
6 Coupon Curls 31 OYO
Well, turns out the ball seemed a little lopsided, and 3 and 4 kept coming up, which led to lots of complaining amongst the PAX, even the Q. So we modified! Serve the ball, whoever catches it, picks the exercise.... whether its on the paper or not.

Devotional Proverbs 8:30-31, before the Creation, God already delighted in the sons of man. Which means, He thought of our children even before He created us. That should give us encouragement and boldness, that as people look up to us as positive male role models, as father figures, we can walk confidently knowing God has our back.

Moleskin: This evening, it felt like we’d been teleported straight into an episode of Miami Vice—74 degrees, cool breeze, and nothing but the best of 80s tunes to set the mood. A evening to don our finest headbands, channel our inner Tony Danza, and remind our bodies "Who's The Boss".
Listening to the good 'ol 80s hits we got to work on beating up the flesh. Whether it was cinder block curls or burpees with a twist, every move was a tribute to the decade that brought us neon, leg warmers, and more hair than any man should ever admit to having, @Pig
But let's be real—today wasn’t just about sweating it out. It was about brotherhood, camaraderie, and maybe a little bit of proving that even in 2024, we've still got the moves. Here's to another epic beatdown, another day stronger, and another excuse to blast Livin' on a Prayer just one more time. Until next time, keep the spirit of the 80s alive!

Moleskin: A tad muggy for a Beatdown at the ol’ Exec. Since it was my first F3 workout since COVID, I kept things fairly simple.
Warmo: Quick run through of SSH, Tin Soldiers, Arm Circles, Grass Grabbers, Quad pulls, Michael Phelps
The Thang: Modified Murph
In groups of 2 or 3 PAX did the following:
300 Squats
200 Merkins
100 Pull ups
We broke it up into two parts doing half the Merkins and Squats in the back lot, then moseyed to the playground for the second half. Then finished by moseying back to the lot to complete a short 10 minute Marry of:
Fifer Scissors
Freddie Mercurys
American Hammers
Plank Shoulder Tap relay till 100
I truly thought this would be an easy workout, but was wrong. I usually crush the exercises but decided to try it with a weighted pack. Thanks Billboard! I only made it halfway though with that torture device on then decided it would be better to survive than say I did the Murph with a pack on. Billboard did the whole thang with the pack. What a show off. Actually, what a Beast!
We were blessed to have Sup join us tonight. Other than the Boy Scout looking getup, he was the same positive Force as always. Hobbs and Dumbell joined him for a walk while we did the Murph then joined back up with everyone at the end. Awesome stuff.

COT:
Devotional - John 5, beginning of chapter is the story of the Pool of Bethesda. Bethesda means "House of Kindness". The pool was known to have healing properties, when the angels came and stirred the waters. The story tells us of a man who had been crippled for 38 years, but never was able to get into the pool because people kept getting in front of him. Jesus, knowing the man's situation, asks "Do you want to be healed." The man makes his compaint about not being able to get into the pool. And Jesus, unfazed by the complaint, says, "Get up, take your mat, and walk."
Many know of how I found F3 and how my back has been healed. I give all credit to Jesus, for God has revealed F3 to me. And I continue to challenge myself, and urge you the same, that when you hear Jesus or the Holy Spirit to get up and move, just do it. Keep advancing, and keep helping others advance.

On July 18, we had quite the adventure at #The Executive. My 50-year-old brain had me convinced it was July 20 at the Armory—classic! We moved locations not once, not twice, but maybe three times, making it a real-life game of hide and seek. Despite the confusion, all 14 great guys miraculously managed to find the spot where the beat down was going to take place. It was a fantastic night of fellowship the weather was a perfect 78 degrees, but that parking lot? It was like a frying pan. Not exactly the best place to lay down, unless you're a pancake.

You're holding a cup of coffee and someone accidentally bumps into you, causing it to spill everywhere.
Why did you spill the coffee?
"Because someone bumped into me."
Wrong answer.
You spilled the coffee because there was coffee in your cup. If there had been tea in the cup, you would have spilled tea.
Whatever is inside the cup is what will spill out.
So, when life shakes you up, whatever is inside you will come out.
It's easy to pretend everything's fine until you're shaken.
So, we have to ask ourselves, "What's in my cup?"
When life gets tough, what spills over? Joy? Gratitude? Peace? Humility? Anger? Bitterness? A victim mentality? A tendency to quit?

Moleskin: 89 degrees out this morning—not too bad, but the humidity added a little extra challenge. No music today, which was a bit odd and left me wondering if the Bands decided to take a vacation too. After a week of R&R, indulging in seafood and lounging, I was back and ready to roll. Literally. Rolling the dice to predict our fate and exercise felt like a bizarre game show: “Welcome to ‘Exercise Roulette,’ where every roll brings new sweat and regrets!” I must say, it kicked my butt! Who knew dice could be so evil? It always looks easier on paper, doesn't it?
Big shout out to all the men who showed up today. Your presence and motivation are greatly appreciated. Thanks for rolling the dice and pushing through with me. Let's keep up the great work and continue to support one another!

DEVOTIONAL:
The Chinook is an amazing heavy helicopter that produces much down draft and wind. Some say the word means "strong fighters." Other uses are to describe wind blowing. I was reflecting through the beat down about the Chinook and wind, and at one point the wind actually did pick up and refresh us! Tying it in with the Gospel of Mark, first chapter, Mark describes the Spirit showing up at Jesus' baptism, and then in verse 12, immediately the Spirit compels Jesus to go into the desert to be tempted for 40 days. In the original Greek, the word for Spirit can be related to wind. So my encouragement to our F3 brothers, do these Chinook exercises and be reminded of the wind it generates - and also be reminded of the Spirit - who is compelling us to advance!

@Reaper (QIC)
Moleskin: Absolutely perfect night for an F3 beatdown at the ooooooooooooool Exec. PAX was feisty from the get go (especially Tinker toes) so I figured some Plyocide would knock em down a notch or two.
Warmo: Dynamic warmup of SSH, Butt Kickers, Tin Soldiers, Side Hops, Elevator Merkins and Slow Jump Squats
The Thang: Plyo followed by Hill Training
Plyo: Side Hops, Single Foot Hops (side/side and up/back), Lateral Jumps, Runner Lunge Jumps (not Richard Simmons), Frog Jumps, Jump Knee Tucks
Hill: PAX lined up at the foot of the hill with their coupons and performed three exercises (Man Makers, Static press hold with Flutter Kicks and Curl Press). During each round, PAX took turns running up the hill and back. Reps continued until each PAX made it up and back. The original idea was to have a penalty resulting in Murder Bunnies instead of sprints up/down that hill—but I think we would still be there if I let that happen.
Mary: None—actually I gave the PAX a choice between Mary and Hill to finish up, but only 4 (out of 9) voted so we finished with a Bear Crawl and Murder Bunny up the hill for good measure.
COT: Prayers for Apple Bottom’s wife, Thrones wife, Fugitive, Crash and for anyone dealing with depression or mental illness. You never know what impact you can have on others so be on the lookout for those in need of a shoulder.

I'm deeply grateful for the incredible F3 men who consistently inspire and challenge me, helping me grow stronger. I thank the Lord for guiding me to this remarkable group of individuals.

The temperature hovered at a comfortable 67 degrees as we relocated to the shelter house near the basketball courts, our usual spot taken.

The beatdown was exceptional, with three of us laboring diligently embodying the biblical wisdom found in Ecclesiastes 4:12 - "A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." I even thought @Pig was going to persuade Johnny Law to step out of the cruiser and join us in rolling the dice.
Warmorama:
Windmill x15
Batwings x20

It was above 30 degree so that was enough to get us warm, besides everyone was ready to play.

Moleskin - A fantastic evening with temperatures at a pleasant 50 degrees, creating the perfect setting to enjoy a game of UNO in a delightful atmosphere.
Warmorama:
Batwings 20 IC
Happy Jacks 15
Abe Vigoda 10 IC
The Thang: UNO
Shuffle the deck and deal 7 cards to each player. Flipped over the top card and got the game started.
Decided on a starting player and play direction. The first player discards a card that matches the top card (color or number) or plays a special card.
Assign exercises to each color and number:
Colors:
Red: Thrusters
Green: Curl
Blue: Thigh slide situps (not sure the official F3 name)
Yellow: Ground Pounders (number = repetitions)
Numbers: The number on the card specifies the exercise repetitions.
Special Cards:
Draw 2: Draw 2 cards and perform their exercises
Draw 4: Draw 4 cards and perform their exercises
Reverse: Reverse the playing direction and do 20 side straddle hops (IC)
Skip: Skip a player's turn and do 10 mountain climbers (IC)
Wild: Choose any color and do 10 burpees (OYO)
Swap Hands: 4x4 (10)
Can't play a card rifle carry coupon to designated location, light post. Continue until you can play while others will be performing merkin plank jacks.
Surprisingly every round cards could be played so #4 was never performed. @Butter turned up the heat with his Draw 2 Wild Card combo and @Hobbs hit us with a similar blast which included the notorious swap hands card.
