Grouchyjarhead Training

Still a bit fatigued today, so instead of ruck SE I hit a Stand Alone Training session from EPRS. 30 minute run at a moderate pace, then 20 minutes of circuit training. Total - 10 pull-ups, 58 elevated push-ups, 60 one arm snatches (12kg), 30 goblet squats (24kg), 175 reps of various abdominal exercises, one 30 sec plank. Had to cut it a bit short, but good workout overall.

Only slept about 4 hours, working a lot this week so it will be a tough one. Did half my usual ruck SE today (35 reps total).

Training was erratic this week due to helping out at church for Vacation Bible School but I got some in.

20180810:
EPRS. 30 minute run, then a 10 minute single KB circuit done twice (5 min each side, rest 3 min, repeat). Just used a 12kg and it was a butt kicker.

20180811:
8 miles with 45#, 2:12. Not looking forward to this proposed long ruck next weekend.

Going to knock out a few miles today with 45#, will update when I get them in.

Thanks gents. Longest ruck I've ever done with the heaviest weight for that distance so pretty pleased with it. It was a long day. Started with 5 of us but one had to tap out after 10 miles. Hot and humid, was supposed to rain which we were looking forward to but nothing more than a light sprinkle. Changing the socks at the halfway point, ample Vaseline, snack stops, and a flask of Jameson helped us all get through.
