      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 very different from the challenge

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

                    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

                            if a plain round kettle bell doesn't do it for you, how about one that looks like an angry chimp

                                      Didn't realize the chimp kettlebell is from an Austin based company.

                                      Hmmmmm, road trip?
