    Just spoke to Julie at GORUCK. Z has been speaking with her on and off the last few weeks. I will be having a conference call with Julie and Blair VP of Ops within the next 2 weeks regarding our challenge, custom patches, discount rucks and gear etc…  I will need to know who is interested in purchasing what? The discount will be 20% off. They are really looking forward to hearing more about us. So Giles if you read this I will probably have you on the conference call. I know a lot of you are interested but I really need to firm up the body count. I'm sure they will be looking for some sort of deposit from us. Doing a custom challenge is the goal but I'm not sure if we will have enough team members. I am dedicated to this challenge and I can speak for Z as well. We will be doing no matter what. Please let me know where you stand. I know this is far off but, we are about to get serious!!!

                @seanocono:

                I'd like to see the trainer a few times to lock in my form, and then use the Skogg system to follow a disciplined regimen, on my own.  I will probably check back in with the trainer, every couple months, just to make sure my form stays tight.

                ^^^^THIS^^^^

                                          Ok, glad to hear it Adam!

                                          Today's effort,

                                          Tabata method 4x30sec on 10 sec off
                                          medicine ball lunges R&L
                                          medicine ball push ups

                                          ax handle into a slam w/ medicine ball
                                          crunches full extension R&L

                                          jog in place while pressing medicine ball

                                          planks
                                          Russian twist w/ medicine ball

                                          battling ropes

                                          felt really good to get after it, going to start getting aggressive on my training in the coming weeks
