‘The Murph’ is a Hero WOD that has been set up to honor men and women who have fallen in the line of duty, specifically Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy. Michael Murphy was killed in the line of duty in Afghanistan on June 28th, 2005.


The Murph work out used to be referred to as the “Body Armor” WOD and was Lieutenant Murphy’s favorite work out. 
It was comprised of..
1 mile Run
100 Pull-ups
200 Push-ups
300 Air squats
1 mile Run


*while wearing a 20 lb vest to represent Body Armor
This workout has since been renamed ‘The Murph’ in honor of Lieutenant Murphy and every year hundreds of people across the country come together to do the workout in his name and to raise funds for the LT. Michael P. Murphy Memorial Scholarship Foundation.
