The start of the farmers walk to begin the real Grad workout segment. Just a short 300 yard stroll with double kbs!
Ah yes, in the meat of it. Pain is good!
More pain is even better, but with the support of your teammates it doesnt hurt nearly as much.
The finish line! Sean made it the whole way with double 24 kgs which is NO joke!
Another pic of the finish. The energy and support that was generated simply had to be experienced to be believed.What a finish to an amazing weekend! Sr RKC Kenneth Jay came up with this brutal combination of walking see-saw presses mixed with two handed swings for the length of the football field! What a rush of energy the students had knowingthey had gone through this Crucible and came out the other side- RKC!
As many certs as I have attended it never fails to impress me how much more people can do than they can even imagine and how good they feel accomplishing this. It resets their internal gauge as to what real work is and how much the mind controls everything they do. You gotta want to! Congrats to all the new RKCs.

Just when you thought the crucible couldnt get any worse.... oh well... all in good fun!
Was the heaviest weights used that guy with the 24kgs?
Wow, looks awesome Rif. Thank for sharing the pictures. Brings back some great memeries.
Yoana and I will be there in June and then in September :)
looks like a lot of "body builders" were there, heh heh. Big pecs/man-boobs
dustin,yes, the 24 kg was the heaviest used and it was a killer.
franz,
you're welcome, see you both in June and Sept!
another gutless, anonymous comment.I will fix that function.
Yup, if someone has something crappy to say at least own up to it!
Looks like a heck of a good time Rif, glad ya'll had fun. You're so right about the competition motivating us to push harder too.
( box squats RULE by the way )
See-saw presses and two hand swings the length of the field....
*puke*
Oh my GPP just ain't that good!
I bet there's going to be 100 yards of two hands anyhow by the time I get there June.
Walking see saw press is beyond my imagination.
Thanks to Rif Franz and Royce, for commenting my blog. It's been a big push for me.
