Escape Velocity Week 7, Respect, Man Weights, and Avoiding Pain

I never thought I’d be happy to do burpees.

Summary:

This week started with a solid F-You, but was accompanied by several important revelations and recognitions. Hard work is recognized by those who matter; if they don’t notice, the probably matter less than you think.

Grappling has continued to focus on wrestling, specifically we transitioned from upper body connection / grip fighting to lower body connection and off balancing.

The week finished with some capacity exploration which continues to highlight my deficits on O2 Mobilization and Endurance.
