        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

          Little scary

          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

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

                                        Hmmmmm, road trip?
