No signup. No dues. Just show up. This page is for your first morning — not Slack, not Q-claim, not lingo.

The whole pitch

Find tomorrow's workout, put the street and time in your phone, and be there. That is it.

Find a workoutSee tomorrow

What happens when you arrive

  1. 1

    Pick a workout

    Choose an AO near you. Free, outdoors, open to all men. No signup and no membership.

  2. 2

    Show up a few minutes early

    Look for the group of guys and the shovel flag. Introduce yourself by your real name — you will earn an F3 name soon.

  3. 3

    Stand in the circle

    Someone will count off and lead. Follow along. Modify anything you need. Nobody is grading you.

  4. 4

    Finish with the COT

    Every workout ends in a Circle of Trust. Then head home — or stick around if the group is grabbing coffee.

What to wear / bring

  • Workout clothes and athletic shoes
  • Water
  • A headlamp if it is still dark
  • A cinder block at most bootcamp AOs (ask when you arrive if you are unsure)
  • A ruck or weighted pack only if it is a ruck workout

Where to stand

Walk up to the group. Say your name. Someone will put you in the count. If you are unsure, stand near the flag and ask “first time?” — they will take it from there.
