    Texas hill country

    Cabelas Alaskan guide tent

    I was close to getting one, I ended up with an REI Base Camp 6. I was put off by the setup and the rounded floor. I feel the base camp has more useable space. I have ridden out 70mph gusts in the Base Camp with all guy lines attached.

    Kodiak 10x14 Flexbow Deluxe, First Impression

    I bring an impact drill and 14" lag bolts, I use these to stake it down and it works in no time flat. It takes me under 15 min to setup or takedown.

    Wendler’s 5/3/1 Results

    I did Starting Strength first, then I moved to Wendlers 5/3/1. I felt I had better progress with Starting Strength. I have been doing it for 6 months but I was coming off a back tweak when I started. Once I started running distance my lifts fell off a cliff.
