  • Murph training with a twist – from Baywatch

    With my time in Nola winding down, it was nice to Q my last workout at Okwata. It’s been a pleasure to serve as the site AO the past few years. This morning proved to be quite pleasant with a nice breeze from the lake. After the pleasantries, we moseyed over to the waterfront for a warmup.

    We’ve been doing Murph trading lately at Okwata, which we continued. But first…bear crawls! We lined up at a light pole and bear crawled to 9 consecutive poles stopping at each to do ascending burpees (1 at pole 1, 2 at pole 2, etc). That’s what I call a nice warmup for Murph training.

    Then it was off to the House of Pain. With tunes turned on and the timer set (1:30 per round), we did 15 rounds of 5 pull ups, 10 merkins, and 15 squats.

    Back to the flag for COT. As always, thanks for the push gents.

    For joining me for our 1st The Murph training for this upcoming Memorial Day

    It is important to remember The Murph Challenge is more than just a workout. It is a tradition that helps push us, humble us, and allows us the opportunity to dedicate a bit of pain and sweat to honor LT. Michael P. Murphy (SEAL), a man who sacrificed everything he had for our freedom. Join us this year as we continue to help keep his legacy alive through The Murph Challenge with F3 NOLA.
