Back from the DEAD Zone!

It has been awhile since I have posted, and I apologize. I was in Germany doing some training with the Army! Fun, fun! I did get to do a few workouts up there even though their gym really sucked, and they didn't even have a real pull up bar. I did a lot of workouts with my "kit" on. For those of you who don't know that is body armor. It weights about 30-40 lbs probably so it adds another dimension to any workout. This post will be a little long, I am just going to run down all of what I did up there.
