A couple of you fellas can run... Some of those 800 splits are impressive.
No kidding! I feel like I could compete with Olympians with how fast I am running, but you guys are smoking me in all splits.

Finished the whole thing in 60 mins. Not a good time. Pack was only 50 lbs and no dumbbells. I guess I'm excited to try it again?!
Im on week 6 of the MTI Big Game plan and can tell you it is no joke. Its designed for someone who is already in decent shape and looking to get into more "sport" specific shape. I also started in about 10 weeks out to give some wiggle room for missed days since its set up to be done 6 days a week. Ive done a lot of different work outs and enjoy this program and will continue to use it for future seasons.
I'm pretty sure the email said the goal was an hour or less. So I'd say you did damn well, especially considering you were able to do all the lunges. Hats off to you sir.
Pods if you are willing I'm sure I'm not the only one who would enjoy a review of the program along with your progress?
Figured I'd check in, as bmart2622 noted its no joke BUT its doable if you have a decent baseline and its surprising/inspiring what your body can start handling. I did the first 3 weeks of MTI plan on schedule, then spent a week just running 3-6mi a day while I was traveling. Started into week 4 of MTI now (I have 1 week of buffer still so if I get a chance I'll see about trying this SG workout again later in my progress).
ANYWAYS day 1 had a baseline test of 30min of 16" step ups with a 40lb pack keeping track of quantity and then this was repeated the first day of week 4 (again week 7). I did 483 day 1 and a few weeks later I did 566 so ~17% increase from my personal baseline. Setting out on 75lb hikes feels completely fine/strong. I'm at 4.5mi distance on those and do start feeling it on the second half and occasionally stop for a moment for a breather but never drop my pack/sit down but the first half is stronger feeling than week 1 for the same distance. I should have taken a baseline measurement of my thighs for shits a giggles because those are larger and more defined/solid than when I started.
