Getting hurt sucks. It sets you back in the pursuit of your fitness goals, it robs you of the cathartic workout experience, it makes you gain weight and, worst of all, it traps you with yourself (my least favorite drinking buddy). Unfortunately, however, for many of us, injury is an inescapable part of the fitness […]

Tuesday is our favorite Leg Day at the gym, but we’ll begin with pull-ups, squats, and lunges to build up the strength in your lower body. That builds the muscles necessary for carrying a rucksack, which is the bread and butter of SOF. Then a four-mile run in 32 minutes or less which is the […]

As we discussed last week, there’s nothing wrong with being a part of the “new year, new me” crowd, no matter how much I may hate the phrase. We all have to get started sometime, and if a New Year’s resolution is enough to get your fitness gears turning, more power to you… but there’s […]
