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

              Gotcha. Hence the small number of participants

                  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?
