F3 = Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith

  • F3 is a world wide network including free, peer-led workouts for men in various regions. F3Nation.com

    Maybe you heard about F3 through a friend, family member, neighbor, podcast, news outlet, wherever and now you’re here looking for more information.

    We are glad you’re here!

    F3 started in 2011 in Charlotte, North Carolina and has grown to more than 46 states and 3,400+ scheduled workouts each week through the efforts of men whose lives have been changed by their involvement with F3.

    The three Fs in our name stand for Fitness, Fellowship and Faith — the last of which we define as simply a belief in something bigger than yourself.

  • F3 is Free of Charge to all Men

  • plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.

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

  • Typically, morning weekday workouts are at 0530 and last 45 minutes. There is a noon workout, as well as some evening workouts. The Saturday workouts are at 0630 and 0700. See “AO’s / locations” for specifics

  • Free of Charge

    Never a charge to workout, ever.

    Open to all Men

    No matter the man, you are welcome here.

    Held Outdoors

    Rain or Shine, Heat or Chill, we are out there.

    Peer Led

    Rotating fashion of men leading each other.

    Ends with COT

    Always ends with a Circle of Trust

  • Faith — we define as simply a belief in something bigger than yourself.

    We end every workout in a COT (Circle of Trust). This often includes a prayer, meditation, or reflection, lead by the workout leader (the Q).
