The BackBlast:

3 PAX met in the wet post-rain gloom at The Warrior for a “DORA 1-2-3/3-2-1 AROD” beatdown, holding down the fort while some of our other PAX attended the Philly 3-Year Manniversary.

The Disclaimer Was Given …

The Warmup:

PAX met at the flags and a traditional DORA 1-2-3 commenced.  Since we were an odd number of PAX I mirrored Sandtrap (completing the exercises and moseying along-side him).  In traditional DORA fashion the PAX did a combined 100 Merkins, the 200 LBC’s, and 300 Squats.

Once the DORA was completed; PAX grabbed coupons for the second part of the workout which I have deemed 3-2-1 AROD (the anagram of DORA 1-2-3), because as you might have guessed, the exercise counts were done in reverse.  And since famous Yankee A-Rod was well known for his arm strength; we focused on building up our arms.  The exercises were a combined 300 squats (with coupon), 200 Overhead Press, and 100 Curls.

Since we had a few extra minutes at completion we took a nice long mosey, made our way over to the pavilion for 15 Dips (IC) and 20 Seal-Claps (IC).  We finished with a bit of Mary including Flutter-Kicks, Rosalitas and Annies.

COT: Prayers for things spoken and unspoken.

Thoughts: I was up until about 1am and was running on little sleep; but the accountability to be there for my brothers pulled me from the fartsack where I might have otherwise slumbered.  The fellowship of being together; the faith imparted in the COT are what F3 are all about.  Was my body tired; yes, but my spirit was invigorated.

PAX then moved out into their day.  I went to my son’s baseball game.  We then met Lowes and Baconator to help Strudel put up his basketball backstop.  Strudel, Lowes, and Duke (and Duke’s Brother and Step-Father) then came over to help me move a Piano and a few refrigerators (frosty beverages were enjoyed amongst the PAX as a reward for a hard-day’s work).
