My take: Abs are 99.9% diet. You would do better to focus on a paleo style meal plan than worrying about your workout (such as this: http://www.archevore.com/get-started/ ). Also, compound movements are going to hit your abs hard. Don't discount squats and deadlifts. Those are your ab exercises.

The more the merrier! Also....meat... *drool*

EXACTLY. Go kick this challenge in the butt!

Mmmmmmmmmm banooookie.

Probably. But maybe it'll get excited to know that I booked my airfare, hotel, and rental car?

Pretty much.

This seems like an appropriate crossfit workout for the people in the arctic. Though I think it should be done with 185 or 225. *kudos to Knightwatch for linking to this on FB*

Good thing I sent you that article. Im glad to see you so happy!

Mmmmm Scotch...

I would hope so.

Yes! The arctic!

Ouch. I hope you feel better. *hugs*

Got my time off request back, I'll be booking tickets tonight! So exited!!!

Word. Bad self talk is bad.

Yeah, I know what you mean... I'm thinking of flying in friday afternoon, and leaving sunday evening. I just figured out the nice thing about flying southwest: they're always on time. There's also a couple nice hotels about 10 minutes away from BigM's place.

Attendance is mandatory.

Have you taken a look at southwest? You have flights running $95 each way.

Yes! NO MIND.

I'm in! (provided my requisite time-off request is approved.)

Congrats on the scholarship! I admit, I saw the interview list and was like "damn, I want to be in the academy". And wow. Dinner looks incredible!

If you lose 20-30# I'll eat my hat. I've taken a week off lifting and gotten pr's. I call bullshit. Eat lots of food, relax, and have fun. Imagine that you're prepping for a meet. Come home and set pr's. And if you can't go to the park? Do a road trip and come up here. You can train with the powerlifters and spousal unit can have fun in the crossfit box.

+5 trillion.

Spousal unit is being stupid. Boooooooo. No, not really back. Just lurking.

I <3 the title! Good luck!

All the nerdiness! Awesome! Oh, and that's a cool box!
