THA-THANG:
During the IPC I heard the guys talk about Hero WOD’s and got curious. Thought that would be great to inject into our RAW Routine. This workout is to honor Navy Seal Chris Kyle – 3 Rounds is to remember his M & 2–2.0’s, 4 moves to honor his 4 tours in Iraq and 160 total reps per round for his 160 confirmed kills. We did all weighted exercises w/ a CMU

  • 3 Rounds
  • 40 KB Swings (CMU)
  • 40 Box Jumps
  • 40 Thrusters (CMU)

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Christopher Scott “Chris” Kyle (April 8, 1974 − February 2, 2013) was a United States Navy SEAL and the most lethal sniper in U.S. military history. Kyle served four tours in the Iraq War and was awarded several commendations for acts of heroism and meritorious service in combat. He received two Silver Star Medals, five Bronze Star Medals, one Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal, two Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medals and numerous other unit and personal awards. Kyle was honorably discharged from the U.S. Navy in 2009 and published his bestselling autobiography, American Sniper, in 2012. An eponymous film adaptation of Kyle’s book, directed by Clint Eastwood, was released two years later. Chris was a devoted son, brother, husband and father in North Texas, as well as continuing his efforts to helping Veterans re-acclimate to civilian life and combat stress carried home. Kyle was shot dead at a shooting range near Chalk Mountain, Texas. His friend, Chad Littlefield, age 35, was also killed.

The three rounds represent his wife and two children left behind. The 4 movements represent Chris’s 4 tours in Iraq. The total reps for each round equaling to 160 repetitions represent his total confirmed kills.

MOLESKIN:
The workout was short and sweet. Pretty sure the guy in the van may be living there in the parking lot. We had to do the BOM up front so the Q could get out of there and participate in “Walk to School” day.
