HISTORY Made: Jasmin Paris First EVER Female Finisher at the Barkley
Do you ever wonder how much you can do? How much discomfort and pain you can endure? What exactly am I made of kinda stuff? You will learn these things at The Barkley. This is, by far, the most grueling ultra marathon ever conceived. The Barkley makes the Toughest Mudder look like a cute little puppy. Unbelievable levels of motivation, ingenuity, and mental fortitude are required. This is the real deal. Hooyah.

600 lb Deadlift (BAD FORM) | Furious Pete
As unbelievable as it may seem, another "worst form" Deadlift video has been found, and THIS guy should know a lot better. Even funnier his videographer prods him on through the whole ugly lift. The only thing 'furious' about Pete are his vertebral discs.
DO NOT BE THIS GUY.

Throwback Thursday
BBBv.11
Of all the crazy things we've done in the past, including Tough Mudders, Savage, and Barbarian Races, the Burpee Mile, Tire Flip 400, the Winter Circus, and more 'Murphs' than can be counted- the Beer, Burgers, and Burpees workout might be the craziest. It's that time of year and we've been getting a few questions about whether or not we'll be doing it again.
From it's innocuous start in 2009, it has morphed into one bad WOD. Let's examine the workout:
Beer and Burpees
For time:
100 Burpees
drink 2 beers
drink 2 beers
75 Burpees
drink 2 beers,
50 Burpees
drink 2 beers
25 Burpees
drink 2 beers
While body weight plays a very big role in caloric expenditure, the average athlete will burn 10 calories per minute while performing good form, quality Burpees.
Initially, only beer was to be consumed between rounds. The average caloric content of 12 ounces of beer is 150 calories. As prescribed, that would be 8 beers. You do the math.
We added burgers in 2010 because a few people didn't drink beer. Like the beer, two burgers between rounds. The average caloric content of a burger is 330 calories. Without the bun brings it down to 193 calories. Again, as prescribed would be 8 burgers. You do the math.
BBBv.2
For time:
100 Burpees
drink 2 beers, eat 2 burgers
75 Burpees
drink 2 beers, eat 2 burgers
50 Burpees
drink 2 beers, eat 2 burgers
25 Burpees
drink 2 beers, eat 2 burgers
25 Burpees
drink 2 beers, eat 2 burgers
So, if this workout is done AS PRESCRIBED, and you didn't do the math, the total caloric consumption for this workout could be as much as 3,840. That's almost double the RDA for calories. Minus 'x' for calories burned, that's still a lot of calories.
Is this really a wise choice?
Only a few people have gotten this beast as prescribed and paid the price. Is it worth it? Is the show worth the cost of the ticket? Ask these folks and they'll say, "HELL NO. NEVER AGAIN."
Some of our best work has been a result of poor judgment. A kind of a "best bad decision" thing that in a sick way contributes to the DMBM mentality we love at CFSF.
Be careful what you ask for. You might just get it. That means it's TOYOTA TIME.
So, the answer is a resounding YES! You sick people have chosen to do it again.
BBBv.11 will be held Saturday, March 16 at noon. Sign up sheet on the table.
Only the Burpees are mandatory.
Anything worth doing is worth over-doing.
Anything worth doing is worth over-doing.

Super happy for this guy and his spectacular achievement. This is JJ Heard in case you don’t recognize him, and we’ve watched him grow from a goofy little grommet into a strong, outstanding athlete who will be competing at the state level. Good things come to those who train hard. This is the proof. We know you’re going to do great. Enjoy the ride and take the whole thing as a learning experience.
Be pleased, not satisfied.

Surf Torture
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/why-people-taking-ice-baths-020000900.html
You're not cold, you just feel cold. Here's a start: finish EVERY shower with a :10 second cold water only phase. It will get easier. Your goal? Work up to a full minute of cold tap water.
