Today was a "soft launch" beatdown for F3 Albany. 
WARMUP:
Daisey Pickers x12 IC
Imperial Walkers x12 IC
SSH x12 IC
Bear Hugs x12 IC
Big Arm Circles x12 IC

THE THANG:
This beatdown was split with YHC, Roll Tide, and Piggyback each leading 20-minute segments. YHC started it out with BLIMPS (Burpees, Lunges, Imperial Walkers, Merkins, Plank Jacks, SSH). 
Round 1: 5 of each exercise, then Pax got to vote on which exercise was dropped.  Burpees were voted off the island first!
Round 2: 10 of each exercise, then Pax got to vote on which exercise was dropped.  Lunges were dropped next.
Round 3: 15 of each exercise, then Pax got to vote on which exercise was dropped.  Merkins were next to go.
Round 4: 20 of each exercise, then Pax got to vote on which exercise was dropped.  SSH were voted out.
Round 5: 25 of each of the remaining 2 exercises, then Pax got to vote on which exercise was dropped.  Plank Jacks were voted out.
Round 6: Should have been 30 of the last exercise, but YHC decided we needed more, so we did the last set of Imperial Walkers the hard way.

Warm-Ups and BLIMPS consumed YHC's 20-minute slot perfectly and it was time to turn it over to Roll Tide.  Roll Tide lead us on a mosey down to the river walk hillside for fun with 7's.  Pax were once again given a choice.... Star Jacks or Merkins?  Pax chose Star Jacks. At the bottom of the hill do 1 Star Jack.  Run to the top and do 2 Star Jacks.  Run back down and do 3 Star Jacks, and so on until you get to 7.  Once the 6 was in, Roll Tide led us back to the flag.

Once at the flag, Roll Tide thanked Toll House for his service for our county and for his service to his community. He then handed over a flag F3 Macon brought down to give F3 Albany as their first.  

After the flag presentation, Roll Tide led us back to the river walk hillside.  Pax only thought they had escaped merkins.  Rinse and repeat of the first set of 7's, except this time it was with Merkins rather than Star Jacks. Roll Tide then turned it over to Piggyback.  Piggyback lined us up below the gnat line for a set of 11's. Below the gnat line we did Mike Tysons, then bear crawled above the gnat line to do Box Cutters, then ran back below the gnat line for Mike Tysons.  These were all done in the typical 11 format... 1&10, 2&9, 3&8, 4&7, 5&6. 6&5, 7&4, 8&3, 9&2, 10&1. Once the 11's were complete, Piggyback led us back to the flag just in time for Mary.

MARY:
YHC started Mary with LBC's and Freddy Mercury’s, Roll Tide with Toe Touches, and Piggy Back finished us off with High Plank Low Plank. 

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Official launch date currently set for July 8th

COT:
Prayer/Praise for F3 Albany and the local community
​

OTHER:
Throughout the beatdown we discussed picking up the 6 and what the Credo and Mission Statement mean. 
The Bridge House is a beautiful AO with plenty of structure and opportunities to let the imagination run wild regarding beatdowns. YHC stressed the importance of leaving it in better shape than we find it and always keeping it clean.  There was some opportunity to pick up a little trash after the beatdown. This AO also has a locally owned Coffee House 100 foot away for Coffeteria that is owned by FNG Keurig.  He was kind enough to treat everyone to coffee on the house!  Thank you again Keurig!
