  1. I enjoyed this more than the filthy 50. In other words, I think it's more useful. For example, I get more out of doing 135# push press for ten reps than I do a 45# bar for 50 reps. Sub 6 min is definitely possible.

  2. I was relieved to see you break up the burpees, I wasn't sure you were mortal. An inspiration to keep doing what we are doing.

  3. Nice. Killer time and thanks for posting the video. The carrot is now more distant than I had previously thought.

    I've got a lot of footage from our efforts here at The Shop that still needs some editing. I'll get it up later this month.

    *Edit on main post... 10 x push press and 20 x pullups between the box jumps and back squats

  6. Thanks again for more awesome workouts mike. I am back overseas and it is much easier to convince guys over here to do workouts with me if we use heavier weights. A lot of guys enjoy the intensity of crossfit but not necessarily the pay-off of being better at cals when they all want to maintain or develop "ginormous" statures. Becoming stronger is definitely the goal in mind for myself operationally, being able to run a sub 5 min mile is nice but isnt worth anything if you don't have the strength to carry someone/thing once you get there. I am currently trying to track down an H-harness like you suggested but in the meantime an admin. dude's plate carrier my work well enough. looking forward to more workouts that help operational strength and endurance. thanks again mike.

  8. Bill let me know if you need me to send one. I don't think you'll find that type of H-gear over there unless it's from DRMO or in a museum. Just email me your address off line.
