Self-discipline and accountability are huge factors when posting in the Gloom on days like these. Simply getting to the AO on cold mornings can be the harder thing. The recent cold temps have definitely put a damper on the numbers that are posting at workouts. Getting up and out of the fartsack, putting on the layers and just showing up is the biggest obstacle we face on cold mornings. The beatdowns are nothing and are easily feasible when you just post for your brothers.
Today, 6 members of The Herd joined YHC & swallowed the Daily Red Pill, conquered the fartsack and we all got better in return.

Moleskin
- Thanks to Pole Position for joining YHC for RuckLite before bootcamp
- Blocks are COLD and it doesn’t matter what kind of gloves you have on – they are going to freeze your fingers
- It was great seeing old faces again at Jumanji (Kotters to Inuit) and even better to see new ones (Whittle)
- YHC has been posting elsewhere lately due to the new job out of town and needing an earlier start but it was great to get back to Jumanji this week. Miss you, fellas.
