LSU played at Florida in 2012.


I got the years mixed up sorry. It was 2013.
I live in TN and have only been to Tiger Stadium once in my life back when they played UF in 2012. I've seen them play in Knoxville several times and Music City Bowl back in 14. I would like to try and attend a game at TS this year. I'm leaning towards UF, aTm, SC, or even considering watching them vs Bama at BDS. If you could only go to one game this year, which do you feel will be the best atmosphere? Thanks

Favorite LOTR Character

I'm sure this has been discussed but I finally convinced my wife to watch Lord of the Rings. After 11 years she finally agrees. We finished Fellowship last night and she asked me who my favorite character was in the trilogy and I really couldn't decide.

Legolas was my favorite as a kid just because he so OP, Aragorn is hard to argue with, the older I get the more I like Gandalf, Samwise has a strong argument as well, Theoden has started growing on me more and more every time I watch. Overcomes all of his flaws, drops the most fire pregame speech in history and dies a heroic death.

I really dont know who my favorite character is. Maybe thats one of the reasons its such an incredible story. Every character is awesome
Finished with 164. For some reason after watching the announcements and those guys breaking sub 10:00 scores, I thought there was no way I would be capped lol. Then after watching a few of the better athletes in a gym full of "normal" guys flirting with the cap, I decided maybe this would be harder than I expected :lol:
Disappointed in my score. 158 gonna retest this afternoon if I can find time. Had a plan but came out way too hot and the wheels came off quick. didn't respect those thrusters like I should have and only got to the rig was 30 seconds left to do muscle ups lol.
Buddy sent me his score card on my way home from from work yesterday evening and he had beat me by 1 rep so I obviously had to retest. ended up with 19 more reps for 187. Glad I done it again.
168 for me. Im in the same boat as you regarding being dog tired. My youngest never sleeps so I was up all night Wednesday and Thursday running on about 3-4 hours of sleep. I am confident I could make it somewhere in the round of 24s but Im not willing to do that workout again lol. Thats a "How deep are you willing to dive into the pain cave" type workout.

Good job everybody!
Would not be surprised if this was the last CF Games
Allegedly Lazar Dukic went missing during the swim event. Livestream pulled, day 1 canceled. Things are not looking good.

What a horrible start to the games. So sad.

Finished in 52:29 RX

All day I had planned on doing 20 rounds of Cindy, even during the first mile run. As soon as I got under the rig I just decided to go 33 round of 3-6-9 and 1 round of 1-2-3. Im glad I did that bc my arms never blew up and I PR'd by 10 minutes plus . Not near as sore as I thought I would be.

Happy late Memorial Day!

I have tried varying my arm placement to see what works best. I feel like the problem is mainly just the volume of that workout plus the 20lb vest.

Has anyone tried splitting them 5 pullups/5 pushups/15 squats/5 pushups? I watched a video saying that might help with arm fatigue from pushups

Murph

Finished up final day of Murph prep this morning with 3/4 mile run, 80 pullups, 160 pushups, 240 squats, and 3/4 mile run.

How are you guys splitting up the meat of the workout? Those pushups absolutely blow my arms and shoulders up to the point that I am cramping up in both shoulders during that final run.

I wanted to split them into 10 rounds of 10/20/30 this year because 10 rounds is a lot less daunting in my mind than 20 rounds of 5/10/15 but 10 sets of 20 pushups might be a dumb idea for me.

Pullups and squats are fine but those stinkin push ups are rough
Well, Friday I decided on doing scaled, 830 reps. Came out too hot on rower and blew up in the 7th round.

Tried RX this morning just to see what happened and finished with 557 reps. No idea where those DUs came from but I am a happy dude!
Hoping for something with a heavyish barbell as long as it isn't thrusters.
Would like to see HSPUs, maybe some rowing, pullups or t2b, nothing on that devil bike and no dubs lol
Whatever gobbling weather is. I don't think turkeys even know what they like.
My goal was to just not get capped. Finished 12:54 and made myself a promise to never do that workout again lol.

What are the odds of seeing crossovers instead of dubs this year?
Dock Hand during first couple of college years. Drunk tippers were awesome, drunk girls inviting you on the houseboats they were renting after work were awesome, got paid to catch bluegill for a fish fry on multiple occasions, outside all day.

Never realized how good I had it at the time.
