Preamble:
YHC saw the need to instill some Q fundamentals with the NLB guys to help encourage them to lead the workouts, which means it was time for Q School. It had been about a year since the last one, so long overdue. Here are a few things we covered before the workout:- Start on time, end on time
- What is F3?
- We spoke about how it is peer led and that every man here is expected to lead
- It's not NLB guys and F3 guys, once you post, we are all F3 men, regardless of where we rest our head at night
- A proper disclaimer
Warm-O-Rama:
Mosey through the parking lot a few times to get warmed up, then a few usual exercises such as SSH, Imperial, Weed Picker, Good Morning, etc.- We learned how to count in cadence
- How to end a cadence count by the inflection in our voice
- Nacho heckled the Q
The Thang:
Running off campus and seeing that the six was falling behind, we stopped halfway to our destination and YHC asked Ha-Ha to recite the credo, "Leave no man behind, and leave no man where you found him". We spoke about never leaving the six and how these workouts should push the men to become better. Mosey off campus to a back lot for a burpee apocalypse and the 5 core principles, with skips for all correct answers. YHC spent a few minutes to give context for each of them along the way.- Free of charge
- Open to all men
- Held outdoors
- Peer led
- Ends with circle of trust
- How to keep it simple
- How to time it out
- When to call an audible
- "If you can't do it, don't Q it"
- Active recovery, no standing around
