For the GORuck folks, it was R&R day. So I decided to lead our Pax of 11 through an R&R workout the way YHC recovers. Let’s see what happened, but first….

Mosey to the levee and line up at the bottom.
Jacob’s Ladder: Run up the levee, 1 Burpee at the top, then run down. Keep increasing the Burpee count by 1 until you hit 10 Burpees. Plank and wait at the bottom.
Enough of that, mosey over to a random grassy area and circle up.

Mosey back to the flag area…3 minutes left….now it’s time for R&R.

Tclaps to Rudy for helping me train my mental toughness. Check out this article: http://www.artofmanliness.com/2013/10/03/you-may-be-strong-but-are-you-tough/
GORuck Pax is into week one of training. There is still time to join us in training. #CSAUP
If my asking “clarifying questions” around the requested exercises helps build your mental toughness, then I’m happy to help. I just want to make sure I know whether to start my ‘Muricans by going Down or Up. Is that really too much to ask?
I do know you all have greatly helped me build my own toughness. Thank you Shorty, and the rest of F3 Nola.
