      @DougNg:

      Nice, you will not be sorry.

      It was the reviews on Amazon that convinced me it was the right system to invest in

      It was your advice that got me into it and it's amazing and continues to pay massive rewards (thanks again!).

      Health and fitness updates defo gents.

          May have over did it a bit last night made a big scramble last night for dinner
          Organic brown eggs
          Nitrate free bacon
          Sweet potato
          Tomato
          Onion
          Peppers
          Spinach
          Avocado
          Then took a nice brisk 2 mile walk with the bricks, then decided to do 5 sets of 10 burpees. I learned the hard way what a "vurp" is

                The one thing I have noticed about eating healthier is that it takes longer to digest, so keep that in mind. On a positive note though, keep you full longer

                I can't wait to get my GR1 so I can start testing myself with the bricks on my back

                        selection is a much more rigorous 48+ hr event they just recently started, simulates special forces selection, plenty of info on their website

                          Gotcha. Hence the small number of participants

                              d666 or bags - what's the definition of "burpees" or "vurp"? wasn't able to track those words 🙂

                                Burpees are an exercise-

                                Vurp i'm guessing is Jeff's way of saying vomit+burp at the same time. Like throwing up in your mouth kinda feeling
