    I've found that its hard for me to keep up with WODs since I don't have access to rings anywhere.
    I did murph last when I was over in the sandbox a couple of months ago and I couldn't agree more. It was 40 min +/- straight of suck, it was great =) I've served with a few of the guys who unfortunately have had hero workouts named after them, hero workout are always tough but I enjoy the pain and I enjoy remembering...

    Stay Safe,

    Yea, I only just recently got a weighted vest. I had been doing it "vest free" and it blew. Previously I think I was in the 45-55min range but with an extra 20 lbs on, I doubt I'll be able to get under an hour. Murph isn't one that I would do on a regular basis, but it is good maybe once every other month or so just for a change of pace. Plus its fun as hell if you do it with someone

    I couldn't agree more! It is a more "high" risk exercise regime but it is addicting! the push to get that 1 more round or cut a minute off your PR makes it tough to control your form at times...Learning from experience =)

    I've had to relearn my limits so I don't hurt myself as well.

    Wuss. "plan ahead" LOL. If I do that I'll find some reason to get out of it. I don't look at it till right before I start. I'll stew about it all day otherwise. Anticipation sucks.

    Rock on w/ linda today!

    ever since i switched my S&C routines to crossfit several years ago, there was a dramatic improvement in my performance in MMA, BJJ, and muay thai class. i remember after 2 months of crossfit, some of they guys i sparred with asked why i wasn't getting tired anymore. i hadn't realized my sudden improvement until they started mentioning it. stayed with it ever since.

    the last 6-8 months, i've gravitated to rosstraining, but i still work fran, angie, and the other bitches real often.

    Bigboote,

    A big + 1 for Ross Enamait! To me Ross's stuff is real hardcore cross training and conditioning without all the hype and kool-aid...

    CFT... I'm...uhhh... still sore from Monday as I did GHD instead of situps on accident. The 5k sucked after the walking lunges as well but man I flew through it to my surprise and glee.
