You can also support the Murph Challenge by officially registering at themurphchallenge.com or by donating directly to the LT Michael P. Murphy Memorial Scholarship Foundation at murphfoundation.org.
Today’s workout was created in 2005 in memory of Navy Lt. Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, New York, who was killed in Afghanistan on June 28, 2005. This workout was one of Mike’s favorites, and he’d named it “Body Armor.” It is now referred to as “Murph” in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.

Scaling:
By design, most Hero workouts are meant to be extremely grueling, arduous, and mentally challenging. Many contain a very high volume of reps. Keep in mind that “challenging” is a relative term and athletes should adjust workouts to align with their physical and psychological tolerances. If you are performing Murph, partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Consider 20 sets of 5 pull-ups, 10 push-ups, and 15 air squats or 10 rounds of 10 pull-ups, 20 push-ups, and 30 air squats. If you have completed Murph previously, consider performing the pull-ups, push-ups, and air squats unpartitioned. Beginner athletes should reduce the work to a level that is attainable yet still challenging.

Today we have a longer chipper-style workout. Expect the kettlebell swings and knees-to-elbows to play off of each other in an interesting way. Use a kettlebell that allows you to perform each section in 2 sets or less. You should always be able to complete at least 5 knees-to-elbows throughout the workout. Aim to complete each run in 5 minutes or less. Work hard and have fun today.
