In 2011, a group of men began working out with each other outside in the early, pre-dawn morning. They came for fitness, but soon found something more powerful and lasting: fellowship and an urge to improve the people and community around them. This is where F3 was born, and now these local, peer-led workout groups are spreading across the country and the world. Read #Freed To Lead to hear it from the founders themselves.
There is never a charge for F3, it is always free. All men are welcome to join. The men of F3 take pleasure in working out in all types of weather because they know it makes them stronger and more capable; and they rotate the volunteer responsibility of leading the workout group to build leadership skills. Finally, all workouts end with a circle of trust, a time for men to be honest about their troubles, and sincerely lift each other up.
We welcome men of all fitness levels to our workouts and have no requirement for membership other than that you show up at the appointed time and place and follow what the workout leader does.
We do not show up at F3 for ourselves. We show up for the man standing beside each of us.
We need authentic relationships with other men who are working to be strong fathers, husbands and leaders. Isolation will destroy a man. We have the opportunity to change our community and the trajectory of our families. Getting in the best shape of your life is just a by product. The workout is the magnet, the relationships and community with other men is the glue. Lock shields with us and help us accomplish F3’s mission to invigorate male leadership in our community.
