Though I like crossfit exercises, I like mtnathlete.com and militaryathlete.com better and used to visit them when Rob posted the workouts for free.
That's just too funny.

Last winter, I entered a local gym for some weight training.

To my surprise, a young man was walking on a treadmill, army shorts, army t-shirt, large ruck sack. When I approached, he smiled and removed his MP3 wire from his ear. It appears that smart soldiers will find a way to continue with training requirements dispite the level of snow outside.

The smile was the near indicator we had recruited the correct candidate.

Good on him.

FYI - the MP3 was playing Russian, second year.
