Yes it has been long since the last post. No, we have not been skipping our workouts. For some reason, every time I sat down behind the computer, I found myself playing Diablo II. April, while not evident by blog activity, was quite a busy month.

We did start the month out with a Saturday PME Hard Session. I took a little video of Big Frank wringing out his shirt, and COL King toting the keg.





You can't see it, but he is hooked up to resistance bands.
The next weekend was recovery from the Mangudai.

The third weekend was our tribute to the New England Recruiting Battalion. We visited them during the week and they gave us a couple of t-shirts for our photo. The only problem was that we didn't have a camera. Well, with my New England Recruiting Battalion shirt on, I pushed hard on our gauntlet. This was our first weekend that we grappled and sparred after our circuit. I found out two things: 1, I suck at boxing 2, I suck at grappling. I guess it was a good thing that 1LT Kinsel was going at about 10% effort because he put me in an arm bar in about 2 seconds. It was a good workout and the grappling and sparring was an outstanding addition to the program.

The last weekend of the month, CSM and I were attending a conference in Las Vegas. We were able to get up early and go workout at Randy Couture's gym. Yes, we bought souvenirs. Yes I did wear them the next week.

During the last week of April, we put on 2 gauntlets during the week and finished it up with another Saturday gauntlet with grappling at the end. Somehow, my arm still works, even though I was in several arm bars. I guess I'm doing something wrong in my attempts to apply a triangle choke. If there is anyone out there that weighs about 140, and has no skills, come on out and make me feel better. Remember, no skills SSG Giles (he is a 140lb monster, see the cage climb video).

Now, about the title. No one is leaving comments! Let us know what exercise you like or hate. Tell us that the reason you weren't there is because you had to take the kids to see Elmo. Leave comments.
