    I'm pretty sure Tabata means "eff you gaijin" in Japanese…

    I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

      @zhivago:

      Also, started DDP Yoga yesterday and I am pretty stoked on it. Mixing Skogg, DDP and Big Z work outs I think we are starting to get somewhere. I'll keep ya posted.

      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…)

                50 pounds is impressive; nice work.  How much do you plan to lose?

                      Just completed LVL II Skogg test  2.5 min of snatches with each arm was tougher then I anticipated. My arms are pretty dead right now.

                        Just finished my 1st LVL 3 intervals with 16kg bell. Doug I just figured out what you were talking about regarding intervals.

                              How long did it take some of you folks to receive your gear from the goruck site?

                                like a week? pretty sure i've always got a ship notice after a few days
                                not some sort of a preorder situation? I think they've done that in the past with short run colors and stuff.

                                    06/11/2013 - Ordered my gear

                                    06/19/2013 - received tracking number

                                    06/26/2013 - arrival

                                    Excited to receive the new gear but its  two days too late for me to use on my next adventure. Disappointed… I know they had received a ton of orders for the new color ways on their products but not sure how my order fell through the cracks

                                      Shocked usually get my stuff in one week from order date without expedited shipping. They ship from West coast and I live in the east coast.

                                        I was a little surprised they're shipping from Washington myself. I guess I'll have to wait it out and plan an outing to test the new goods. I know I'll be impressed with its quality….  I'm just frustrated with the length of time it will take to get to my doorstep
