"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

Hour Walk + Hour Ruck :) 45 lbs
Ended up doing an hour walk with a client immediately before I was scheduled for my ruck. Hot as hell today too, 90+ and my mind wasn't ready for it. Til I told it to shut up and stop whining and it did.
Turned out that hour walk was an excellent warmup to what turned out to be a very strong, very fast ruck.
Took me 30 min to get really into my groove on my walk with my client but once I started sweating for real everything set in well/
Once I got the ruck on my legs felt exactly as I want them to : strong but loose and unphased by the load. Fully warmed up, and my lungs were nice and open too. But it was freaking freakin hot with no wind and almost no shade.
Again tell the mind to shut up and stop complaining. then it got easy
