GORUCK Challenge

Anybody get to the point where they've burned out yet? Every three months, I take a week off to recharge the battery
I used to work out six or seven days a week, long hard workouts. Then I started to notice that I would either plateau, backslide, or get a cold out of nowhere. I was pushing my body too hard and my body pushed back
Taking a week off also helps prevent injuries from overtraining. I just took a week off a few weeks back
Z: Jody comes with me 50% of the time. She's a pretty good shot, and if anyone gave a dirty look at her at the range because she's a woman with a gun, she'd probably leave a ring shaped burn mark on them

No no, bad attempt at humor that didn't convey…awesome that Jody goes to the range with you man!

*yes sir

Yeah, Doug made a good call on the DDP/Skogg combo. Those really compliment one another well. Thanks for that, Doug.
(And thanks for the Tiger Balm suggestion, too- my wife just laughed when I said I was going out to buy some, since her mother apparently used it for everything; aches, pains, sprains, hangnails, warts, indigestion, whatever…)
