Fitness Fellowship Faith
Our mission is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.
What is F3?
Started in 2011 in Charlotte, North Carolina, F3 has grown to more than 30 states and 2,000+ scheduled workouts a week through the volunteer efforts of men whose lives have been changed by their involvement with the group.
The three Fs in our name stand for Fitness, Fellowship and Faith — the last of which we define as not one specific religion or faith system, but simply a belief in something outside oneself.
Fitness
Our workouts are held rain or shine and open to men of all ages and abilities. You don't need any equipment (though a CMU might be in your future) It may not get easier. You will be challenged to get stronger. But we leave no man behind. #SYITG
Fellowship
It’s easy to get someone out for a free workout, but for more than 90% of F3 guys, the reason they keep coming back is the friendships that are built in what we call “the Gloom." Iron Sharpening Iron means more than Burpees and Merkins. We Lock Shields.
Faith
F3 is open to men of all faiths and no faith. We close each CoT with a brief “shout-out” led by one of the participants. We do it because we are thankful for the opportunity to be together, build ourselves into better men, and to build stronger communities.
F3 NATION IN THE MEDIA
F3 is a national network including 2,848 free, peer-led workouts for men in 196 regions.
