Intro
This morning, 11 at VI proved that intelligence is inversely proportional to the number of squats we were willing to do before sunrise. With a focus on pure leg fire, we left no quad unshaken and no glute unburned.
Warm-o-Rama
We loosened up with a mix of dynamic and deceptive movements to get the lower half ready for what was to come:
- SSH – 25 IC
- Baby Squat Hold – 30 sec
The Thang
Leg Ladder (11–1 Reps)
A descending rep ladder of pain:
- Jump Squats
- Bulgarian Split Squats (5/leg)
- Calf Raises (double-time)
- Lunge Jumps
- Run around traffic circle
Wall Work (4 Rounds)
- Wall Sit – 60 seconds
- 10 Toe Taps (each foot)
By Round 3, the wall became both enemy and support group.
Mary
- Baby Squat Hold – 30 sec
The burn was universal and beautifully dumb. Thanks @Van Gogh for the push when I was tempted to skip this completely. We are better for it.
COT
We closed with clarification on how the championship belt can be won.
This summer, we’re bringing back the Tour de Draftee, just like last year! YHC will be traveling to various AOs to connect with HIMS I don’t often get to see. Last year was an absolute blast, and this time, I’m inviting all of you to join me. To make things even more interesting, I’m turning it into a contest! The rules are simple, and the prize is definitely worth the effort.
Rules
- Attend a beatdown led by YHC between June 2, 2025, and July 10, 2025.
- While there, either introduce yourself to someone new or strengthen a connection with someone you haven’t bonded with a while.
- Everyone listed on the backblast earns one point. The person with the most points at the end wins.
- Should there be a tie on July 10th, we will flip cards to see who gets closest to 21 without going over. A champion WILL be crowned on July 10th.

Prize
- The winner will take home a championship belt engraved with their name and the year they won. You’ll hold on to this belt until next spring, when YHC will have it dry cleaned, disinfected, and prepped for the 2026 Tour de Draftee. Think of it as our own version of the Stanley Cup.
- While not mandatory, it’s strongly encouraged to bring the belt with you to all official F3 events, doctor’s appointments, TSA security checks, date nights with your M, and anywhere else you can think of. Sharing random selfie photos of the champ with the belt throughout the year is part of the fun!
Objective
The goal is to step out of your comfort zone. If you’re like me and tend to stick to the same AO, this is the perfect chance to meet and connect with brothers from across town. Building relationships requires effort, and as Dash Strong men, that’s exactly what we do.
Bonus
YHC might make unannounced appearances at events like Samaritan’s Ministry, greeNest, Lunch Bunch, or Adopt-a-Street. Attend a random one of these events that YHC is also at, and you’ll earn an extra point! Let’s make this summer one to remember. Who’s ready to take on the challenge? SYITG brothers.
