Fat Farm: Day 1

Fat Farm: Day 1  It has begun.

On my command….unleash hell



It took 2 days of hurry up and wait to get to my deployed location.  I hit the ground running and started in with the local military crossfit affiliate.  I honestly thought they were trying to kill me.  After a quick introduction and the obligatory “I am new” speech they immediately set me to task.  Below is the workout…each member of the team completed 25% of the reps.  I scaled the box jumps to 20 inches and the weight for the KB swings and TGs to 25.  (Don’t make fun of me…I almost threw up).   I have very lofty goals for the 5 months I am gone and I needed to start somewhere.  With the addition of crossfit, and hopefully yoga, I will need to relook at the deployment fitness plan and tweak accordingly. 

I am using a couple iPhone Apps to monitor overall health status and recovery.
The sleep cycle app I am using is very unhappy with the sound of the air conditioning unit…I will need to figure out a fix.
