ANNOUNCEMENTS:

1st Official OTB Ruck Workout at B.B.

THE SCENE:
Cold. Clear. 30 degrees.

Explained the format of these workouts moving forward. 100% of these will be used for event prep.

  1. Dress as you would for an event. Test out your clothing that you want to wear (i.e. will these baselayers and a small windbreaker keep me warm during the event?, should I try out these new shoes?). Recommended to never wear shorts. Low crawls will occur on the reg.
  2. Pack like you would for an event. Should contain, at a minimum: reflectors, headlamp, 30# weight, full water bladder, ID (don’t worry about quitter’s cash :)) Pack extra weight than you usually do. The worst thing about training with only 30# weight is discovering that your ruck weighs ~48# at the start of an event.
  3. Sandbags and coupons will be present at EVERY workout. You can crush all the ruck PT and cardio that you want, but if you can’t carry heavy shit for long distances, you’re going to have a bad time at an event.
  4. Workouts will sometime consist of only carrying coupons for the entire duration of the workout. Other times there will be shorter distances covered with more sandbag and ruck PT.
  5. This is not an F3 workout. So instead of circling up like an F3 workout, we will line up in ranks & columns like the administrative phase of an event. The QIC will “inspect” rucks for minimum items listed above. This will get you used to unpacking and packing in a hurry. We may do some “dump it” and “pack it” days with time hacks.
  6. Like the Tough page, to Q one of these workouts, you will first have to have completed a Tough or higher event. Light only doesn’t count.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
There are obstacles/issues in life that you may not be able to face alone.  In my circumstance, I had a major weight issue.  I am not nor have I ever been a small guy.  However, about 9 years ago I got up to 335 lbs.  Being 6’ tall, I was severely overweight and at 25 headed down a bad path.  With the support of my wife, I was able to lose 100 lbs over about 2 years.  She kept me motivated to work out, meal planned and meal prepped for me.  Without her, I would never been able to get where I am today.  We all faces issues/demons in our lives.  Don’t be afraid to ask for help whether it is from your spouse, family, friends or your F3 brothers.

“Obsessed is what the lazy call the dedicated.”
Have someone think you are obsessed with getting better. Not just at workouts, but at everything. Work, being a better father, son, brother, person. Be obsessed with helping others and serving God.

As we approach Christmas remember that it is not a “story”. It is literal. God came to earth. His Glory was revealed to the shepherds. Angels, stars, Kings, Joseph, Mary. All literal. Not just a sweet story.
