Murph Monday

Burpee challenge not challenging enough for you?  Here’s something for all of you fitness crazies out there—Murph.  I have heard of this crossfit workout before but never dared to try it myself.  It’s named after Navy Lt. Michael Murphy, who was killed in Afghanistan while leading a SEAL mission to capture a Taliban leader.  He was awarded a (posthumous) Medal of Honor for his heroic actions and his favorite crossfit exercise was named after him.  Pay homage to our armed forces and those in military service by trying this:

  • 1 mile run
  • 100 pull-ups
  • 200 push-ups
  • 300 squats
  • 1 mile run

Break it up however you want but remember, it’s meant to be brutal.
