"Lady Ghanima has been unavoidably detained," Anakin told the class, arriving fresh from his "let's have students chop things up with axes" lesson. "Today I will be teaching instead. You will be doing a cross-fit routine called the Murph."

Sorry, class. So, sooooo sorry.

"First, you will run a mile," Anakin said. "Then you will perform 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, and 300 squats and then you will run another mile."

And want to die. Of fun! Possibly only if you were Anakin. "This routine is named in honor of a military veteran named Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005. It was his favorite routine."

Anakin held up body armor vests with a bright smile on his face. "If the initial challenge seems too easy, you may add these 20 lbs vests."

Do the Murph!

Or lay on the ground and cry. Anakin is doing the routine in Jedi boots and the armored vest.

Anakin will be remembering tomorrow that he is not as young as he used to be.

Face could barely feel his arms after your last class, Anakin. This wasn't helping matters.

Well, the running and the squats were pretty easy. Ringo had incredible lower body strength and endurance. But she was mostly built like a gymnast, which mean that pull-ups and push-ups were really hard. Doing them both? That was just mean.

Which explained why she was panting, arms trembling and sweat dripping into her eyes as she tried to finish up that portion of the workout.

Talk to Anakin

If you can still speak after your workout.

I did...not that many crunches today.

Like at all.
