A while back (when we were a bit younger!) a group of us who trained together would get into a sweaty huddle and chant a 'round' like... We are the tough boys!... We are the strong boys!... We are the training boys!... We are the sweaty boys!...  ...and so on, until someone couldn't think of anything else appropriate... and then everyone would pile in and give him an appropriate 'reward'!  That just came into my head today, so this post celebrates the "tough" boys!   "Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is  the toughest of us all...?!

Yes, spring has sprung for those of us in the northern hemisphere. Fewer storms, more sun and a summer of fitness to look forward to. So it seems time to post our stocks of shirtless guys enjoying snow and ice during the winter. The body images are cool, the fitness obvious - and the benefits of ice baths remain under debate!
