Family

I am sorry this is late. If nothing else in my life amounts to much, I should at least remember you guys. Three years and one week ago I served with some of the greatest people the United States has to offer this country, and even some of the best in the world. I will not forget you guys. Not ever. I think of you daily. What a great honor it was. Service above self. I work for you still, I am just on the sidelines. Less noticed, but I am here and serving with honor. I am still humbled by your commitment and there are weeks I still wish that I was closer to you.

I must admit that I can't remember all of you, but the picture you gave me and the messages you wrote are proudly displayed in the tower I work in now. You are my real family, and you are welcome in my home anytime.

Shortstuff. Mikey "two toes", Rascal, Froesus, LZ, J Dubya, Crummy, Mocha, Lost, Meatball, Chief Hall, Ray aka "Roy", Eddie Scar-burry, Stifler, Stucky, Burlew, Joe the Bulldog, Doc Louie, Cookie, Yucko the Clown, Sinner, MCPO Frank, SCPO Kevin, Schmitty, Hoosier, Miller, Susskey, XO and CO. The list goes on, I can't remember as well, but your faces are easier to remember.

I miss you guys. This beer is for all of you.

May your tail rotors and autos always give you that rush. I will keep the hangar doors open.

Front Squat 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps.

30 min 185 lbs. I was initially surprised at the greater amount of mid-line stabilization required to perform this exercise when compared to the back squat.

I went ahead and did yesterday's WOD:

50-40-30-20-10

Jump rope (modified due to this shitty calf injury)
Sit-ups

10 min

Am I just falling apart cause I am approaching 30? I think not. It could be worse, I could be in Iraq, right Johnny? I think a 44 y/o that can keep up with me just proves that 30 is just the beginning of my prime.

I am delaying the WOD again d/t a calf injury. I got dressed, set everything up, stretched, then realized I have been favoring my right calf for several w.o.'s. I have tomorrow off, so I will try to start again then.

Run 5k.

Okay, here's the dealyohh, Coach. How's about I hit that 5k tomorrow after tomorrow's WOD? Thanx, delay of game d/t WX.

"Randy"

75 pound Power snatch, 75 reps for time.

40 Min.

I was approached by a fellow globo-gym-er. He asked me questions about my workout. Told me a few tips on his days at doing snatches. For the most part he agreed with what I had to say about globo-gyms. Then I told him about Crossfit and how he should check out the site. He blew me off, you know, kinda how someone says, "try this" and you just nod your head and flush it as soon as you walk away. I decided to finish up with 100 sit ups and 100 back extensions. Then he approached me again and asked,"How many sets did they have you do?" I told him, "75 total". He says,"No, how many sets?" I said, to clarify, "75 total, no rests. Those rests you saw me do were cause I just started this stuff." His eyes got a bit wider and he asked me again what the site was. LOL!

I honestly think I would have better results if I went completely over to Crossfit. My ass is sore and looking at some of the guys in the gym today, what I used to be, I realize that I had it all wrong. Here is the half globo gym, half crossfit WOD:

We'll see how fast I can pack on those extra pounds.

Tomorrow will be intense. I will try out some new stuff I found in the Crossfit website. One is here if anyone else really cares to watch the video: Manmakers

Add some sprints and some kettlebells, youse gotta a winner.

Shit

Not much today. Cold. Nasty. Busted my ass all day and stuck band-aids all over our nation's premiere aviation service equipment. After work, I needed to pick up some dumbbells or be forced to work Crossfit around the people in the gym. So I spent the $$ on a few wts and should be setup for a little until I outgrow the weights I got. Since I spent the time and money on weights, no PT. Well, you have to take the time to get set up. I figure I have plenty of days to use them, just had to sacrifice a day to get them.
Honestly, I might take a pay cut at this point just to PT. The job is great, but I have a lot of shit to fix, and not even enough time to do my regular checks on the shit that works. Sometimes I wonder if less pay, but more time to exercise would be worth it. Then they would just hire someone that didn't give a shit and nothing would work. Such is life when doing a job influenced by politicians.

Crossfit

Many people already know that I have discovered Crossfit. So, since this blog doesn't get much use as is, I will try to post my daily crossfit workouts along with weight training that I do to "wear down" the body before the Crossfit P.T. Keep in mind that I have had to improvise, since there is not an active Crossfit gym anywhere near Evansville. I can't wait to go to OKC so I can try my hand in a real Crossfit gym.
I have modified my diet, which was based on The Abs Diet, to fit more closely to the Crossfit diet which is very similar, but geared more toward what we have naturally evolved to eat.
Hopefully, this will inspire some other PT addict out there to try Crossfit.

Any questions to what the exercises are can be found on the Crossfit website.

Air Force Puke

I never thought that I would call an Air Force pukie a close friend, but I am afraid that I must. Call it circumstance or fate, whatever. Maybe I just enjoy listening to my friend talk with his New Englander accent. Or maybe because we both enjoy good beer and chow. J.L., a 43 year old Chair Farce (ret.) Tech Sgt is a wise and intelligent friend. At 43 years old with a severely injured back and chronic kidney stones, Johnny, you can sure take an ass beating in the gym. What a great example you are of someone that can overcome such physical ailments and PT like you are in your 20's. My PT will not be anywhere near as good or fulfilling when I am back in Indiana. Neither will my conversations. Of course, his wife, retired Senior Master Sergeant, USAF, works for the Coast Guard now, which might be all that the fuss is about. That makes them family.

Honor. Respect. Devotion to Duty.

Kicked my ass. I understand the "Spartans" from 300 trained very similar to this. It rocks.

Flying Dog In Heat Wheat

So I received the six-pack of Flying dog today. It also came with a nice glass with their logo on it. I will do as promised and retract my previous comments. The beer is an excellent wheat. Has a good lingering aftertaste and goes down smooth. Thanks, Flying Dog-I will buy your beer again. If you really enjoy a good wheat, I must say this is definitely worth a try. I believe the spoiled 6-pack I got at first was more the fault of the distributor rather than the brewer. But, it does say alot about Flying Dog to go to such lengths. Thanks again, especially Rob. I can't wait to try the other types.

Flying Dog In-Heat Wheat

Well, my rant about Flying Dog evidently got the attention of the brewery. They explained to me that the beer I had was very outdated and old. So they are mailing me a fresh 6 pack. That says alot about the brewer to make that kinda effort. In return, I will remove my previous comments and perhaps find a very good beer. I just hope it gets here before I haul ass back outta town.

Rest in peace, Hotel Mike. I still see your returns in my grass. I only hope that I am half the friend you were to yours and half the technician you were to your job.

Bars and Chinese

There are times you realize that some you meet at the bars are not destined for much.

I had the best Chinese food in my life today. The Golden Palace on Meridian street is a real authentic Chinese restaurant, not like so many others across the country. It's cooks are Chinese which I am sure makes the difference. Most Chinese restaurants have Chinese wait staff but Mexicans doing the cooking. I honestly don't know if I could ever eat at one of those again.

That's about it over here in the land of good tunes, schoolwork, and beer.
