What’s The Point?
F3 exists to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.
The First F forms the foundation of the group. It is what brings in most men, initially. The WO is where we get our first introduction. It is where we suffer in the gloom together and start forming an unbreakable bond. It is where we shed our weakness and develop our strength; together.
The Second F fortifies that bond. It is where we do life together; through the good times and the hard times. We carry each other’s burdens and we lift each other up. We lean into and we show up for one another.
The Third F represents a focus on something greater than the individual. It is a sense of purpose that is outside of oneself. It creates a drive to have an impact on the world.
Healthy, united, selfless men can better serve their community and the people around them. They are capable. They are unified. They are willing.
If you haven’t come to a workout yet, I encourage you to reach out to one of us, or hit the group up at lexingtonky@f3nation.com. Check out our page at f3lexingtonky.com or dig deeper at f3nation.com. Better yet, come to a workout and see what you think. At the very least, you’ll get in some good exercise.
If you have posted before, and you aren’t making an effort to chat it up or meet up with your fellow PAX outside of the WO, then you are missing out on one of the best parts of F3. You can get a workout in wherever. But F3 creates the opportunity to form lifelong friendships with like-minded men. These relationships are sought out, forged through sweat and service, and run deep.
So, men of Lexington, KY, whether you have posted to a WO or if you are still just trying to figure out what F3 is all about… Plug yourself in.

F3 Lexington – The Numbers and the Feels (So Far) #Flexington
For those of you following along, we just completed Week 4 of the F3 Lexington — now known as Flexington — Launch.
A little background: The Flexington Launch (code name F3 Lex Vegas) was the first floated by OBT in the summer of 2017, a few months after the F3 Louisville Leap. The F3 Louisville guys spent a couple more months working on their own Region, and decided that on May 12, 2018, F3 Lexington would launch.
And it did. With a bang.
Consider this:
Week 1:Â 26 Pax; 15 FNGs
Week 2:Â 22 Pax; 4 FNGs
Week 3:Â Â 24 Pax; 8 FNGs
Week 4:Â Â 26 Pax; 6 FNGs
Who’s got a #milkshake? #Flexington does.
This labor of love was spearheaded by F3 Louisville’s Zartan (@zhanley), and has seen HIM travel from all over the country to be part of the launch. This week, the Comz keys will be handed over to the HIM in Flexington. And there are two more weeks of the Launch to go with Kilo Q’ing June 9 and OJ batting clean up on June 16.
We’re sure there will be updates along the way. And if you want to be part of the Launch, there’s still time and room. Think of it this way: the only thing better than F3 is giving it away….

Why Do You Do F3? cc @F3Houston
One of the great things about F3 is you can go to any workout and immediately you’re part of that Pax. We at F3 Louisville have had the pleasure of meeting many of the F3 Houston Pax, including Camo from F3 Houston/Katy (Kingdom Site Q), and he gave this explanation for why he does F3:
F3 to me: A group that pushes me past my limits and keeps me accountable. An environment that simultaneously allows me to challenge and be challenged. A force that serves our community, and serves as a light, in the darkest hours. A reason to get out of bed in the gloom then end the day a little bit better than I started it. A Nation committed to building leaders and sharpening Men at a time when it’s sorely needed. And finally, a PAX who started out strangers but whom I’m now proud to call Brothers.
Why highlight this Pax? Give this a read and you’ll see why F3 is so much more than a workout. Oh and that’s his pretty face in there along with many of the other studs from F3 Houston.
Top 10 reasons F3 will be awesome in Lexington.

Why Do You Do F3?
I asked some F3 Pax (Members) for their answer to this question, and here are their answers:
Red Roof – F3 Louisville Nant’an: F3 works for me because the workouts are early in the morning and they don’t interfere with work or family time. I love the comradery and accountability of the F3 pax all working to get better together. Plus, after an F3 workout the rest of the day seems easy.
Winnebago – F3 Nation Rucking Q: I do F3 as there essential things every man needs in their life. Friendship, accountability, laughter, competition, exercise and time outdoors. F3 provides event single one in 45 minutes to an hour. My 3 best friends were met through F3.
Mad Cow – F3 Louisville Site Q: I started F3 to get in shape physically. I continue to go to F3 for the bonds that I have built with like minded men. The fitness part is great but it’s the second F that keeps me coming back.
Banjo – F3 Carpex Leader: The encouragement and support we share is beyond comparison, whether it be my “prior”….gym rat circles, spin class, or running buddies. There is no way to fake it; we see each other’s shortcomings, rip apart the excuses, and build each other up, mostly with good natured ribbing and mumble chatter.
Glaucoma – F3 Louisville Site Q: F3 gives me a sense of community and friendship. I am in my 30’s do not live in the town I grew up in and don’t have a profession that creates a lot of close relationships. To create solid relationships with others is hard particularly as we get older and have children. F3 has given me opportunity to create those relationships and fill a large void that was missing in my life.
Zartan – F3 Louisville Grow Q: I never liked to work out alone so I made excuses to not work out. Now I make excuses to work out more because that’s where my friends are.
Barney Fife – F3 Birmingham Nant’an: Short answer: It’s all about the Fellowship. If you just want to workout, there are many ways to get that done. But the camaraderie in F3 is unmatched.
Zoolander – F3 Louisville Site Q:  I joined F3 because 2 guys I respect asked me repeatedly. So I went for the 1stF—fitness. I have stayed and recruited others because of the other 2F’s. I now have deep bonds with men I used to just nod at in passing,…and with men I didn’t even know a year ago. It’s one of the greatest gifts I’ve ever received. And it’s so fun! I laugh at every post. Every single one.
Wham! – F3 Louisville Site Q: It’s a one stop shop for becoming a better man in every aspect of your life.
Kilo – F3 Louisville Rucking Q: First to get fit. Then because I knew it was making me a better father husband and member of the community. I knew I needed F3 to get me in shape. I didn’t know I needed F3 to help me in all other aspects of life.
Digiorno – F3 Louisville Site Q: I was HL’d by a good friend. I had no idea what this F3 was…so I did some research. I then talked to the M about it and went to my first workout. Holy crap was I out of shape. My first impression, this is for every type of guy out there and I was a guy trying to get better starting from the back of the PAX. Like most of us, I was there to get fit and stronger. I soon found that this was the thing that I was needing but did not know it…this is almost actually cliché within F3. I have found that companionship and purpose that I know now I wanted. This is truly more that a workout. The responsibility I take on within the PAX as a Site Q is something I look forward to everyday. These HIM are my brothers.
Star Child – F3 Louisville Leader: Because I got a cool nickname.
Abacus – F3 Louisville Site Q: I heard about F3, then watched some videos, and thought that looks like a tough workout and way to test myself. Like most guys I came for the fitness. I quickly figured out that F3 was answering a question I wasn’t ready to admit I had been asking for a long time…”what’s my purpose”. The Fellowship of F3 provides countless examples of other men working hard to do the best they can and get better. Last my Faith ebs and flows but witnessing what gets done because of the Faith of this group has illustrated to me power of strong Faith. In short F3 let’s me be me!
Frosty- F3 Lake Norman/F3 Louisville Launch Leader: I’ve joined many health clubs but they never stuck. I initially started F3 for the fitness but it’s the fellowship and accountability that keeps me coming back. There is nothing like it. Rain or shine I can always count on my F3 brothers being there.
Here’s a quote that’s been attributed to me, CI, perhaps undeservedly: F3 has become something I didn’t know that I needed.
We all look forward to hearing from you Lexingtonians in a couple of months why you do F3. You’ll find it to be much more than a workout.
