Never been before?

Every man asks the same thing first: will I be the one who can’t keep up? No. There are men in their twenties and men in their sixties at every workout. Everything can be modified, and nobody is timing you.

How a workout goes

01

The Disclaimer. The leader says out loud that he’s not a professional and that you should modify anything that hurts.

02

Warm-O-Rama. Ten minutes of easy movement.

03

The Thang. The main event. Different every single day.

04

Mary. Core work to finish.

05

Circle of Trust. Everyone circles up, says their name, and the group closes together.

What to bring

  • Water — there’s no fountain
  • Shoes you can run in
  • Something reflective if it’s dark
  • Gloves in winter
  • Nothing else. No membership, no waiver, no gear.

You’ll leave with a nickname. You don’t get a vote on it.

What F3 is

Fitness, Fellowship and Faith. A free, peer-led network of men’s workout groups that started in a Charlotte park in 2006. F3 Greensboro launched at Jaycee Park in October 2014 with help from F3 Winston-Salem and F3 Charlotte.

Leave no man behind, but leave no man where you find him.

The F3 Credo

Five core principles

  1. Free of charge.
  2. Open to all men.
  3. Held outdoors — rain or shine, heat or cold.
  4. Led by men who participate, in rotation, with no certification.
  5. End with a Circle of Trust.

Questions?

You don’t need permission to come to a workout — just turn up. The form is for everything else: a question about an AO, starting one, or a community request.
