Male isolation & loneliness is an epidemic. COVID-19 has exasperated the issue as suicides & substance abuse are trending up. It’s important to have a support system of men to encourage & love you. Might I suggest the PAX of F3? Here you will find purpose & empowerment.

The days that are hardest to wake up are the days I most appreciate the men waiting for me in the Gloom. The only workouts I regret are the one’s I didn’t attend. Make the choice each day to do the #HardThing. You’ll be better because of it.

Always free. Cost should never hinder a man from getting, living, and leading right.

All means ALL!

12 PAX showed up on a perfect 60 degree Thursday morning. Best part, we all survived the CSAUP for the entire 45 minutes and are now just that much better. Nice work gents!! F3 Louisville OF3Louisville #DRP #ISI #blocksandbears #murderbunnies

18 men chose the harder thing this morning. F3 Louisville F3

Celebrating Danny Knapp’s 500th post at F3Louisville Vets AO this morning. “500 posts and you’ve learned one exercise.” - #heardatF3

People think we’re crazy for getting up early to exercise. They don’t realize we are conditioning our bodies, minds, and spirit not only for ourselves, but for our families and communities. We are preparing for the day in the healthiest way. Why wouldn’t we do that?

Success can make us think that we have it all figured out. We can easily get self-absorbed in our own accolades. So how do we keep our egos in check? We must surround ourselves with men who will challenge us with candor. Find these men & listen when they say you’re being a jerk.

The boys got up early put in some ruck miles then stuck around for some shenanigans at OF3Louisville. Mumblechatter was 💯. Even Grendel (F3- Jewel) joined in despite his PreBlast advice. Welcome #SilverDollar F3 Louisville #bearcrawlsandburpees #lesstalkmorework

View from the gloom today at Seneca Park. Hello Louisville Metro Government Metro Parks. Can we get some 💡 over here?

Strong energy in the gloom this morning. These 9 got in the #DRP and are now better for it. (And, did it without 🧸crawls. 🤷‍♂️) F3 Louisville OF3Louisville #nomoreshoulders

December 2011 on the right. (30 yrs old) October 2020 on the left. (Almost 40) Don't come at me with that... "It's too early Bullshit" "It's too cold Bullshit" "I'm not in shape yet Bullshit" Get off your ass and go to an F3 workout, Your Life Will Be Changed. #WasNow

A few things I’d tell my younger self if possible: 1. Quicksand won’t play a major role in ur life so stop worrying 2. You’ll be more proud of not having frosted tips than having frosted tips 3. Ur email address/screen name doesn’t need to be creative. Just use ur name

8 got VIP access to the famed half pipe at the O. We all got gooder today. F3 Louisville #ruiner

Celebrating one year of F3 badassary, Harry Caray gave 5 a good ole tour of the best that the O has to offer. F3 Louisville #5k #Morethanaworkout #ironsharpensiron
