Boot Camp Fitness and Training In the Press

Friday’s workout was inspired by The Death Race in which I was on a support team for two of our boot campers. We had 3 circles with logs, aquabags, sandbags, ammo cans filled with weights, Kettlebells and fire hoses. Each team had to do one squat thrust, pick up their item to chest level, put it down and then rotate to the next item and repeat. After 3 rotations, they had to pick up an item and take it for a little walk. Then they switched circles. We repeated this for 40 minutes.

 


During our last week of camp we had a team competition.

Each team was given a log, 44 lb Kettlebell and an ammo can. They had to split hundreds of squats, push ups and pull ups without letting any of their equipment touch the ground. When they completed that, they had to take all of their equipment on a .6 mile hike.

As you can see, some of the teams were very creative in how they kept their equipment from touching the ground.

Kettlebell class, Week 2, Day 1

Using 4 corners instead of a straight line we set the bells up from our lightest to a heavy bell we have not yet swung.

First set was starting with the lightest bell and doing 20 Swings
Run/jog to next cone and do 15 Swings with your normal sized bell and then return to cone 1 and repeat 20 Swings with the light bell.
Run to cone 3 and do 10 Swings with a heavier bell (1 size up from your norm), run to cone 2 and do 15 Swings, back to cone 1 for 20 Swings.
Run to cone 4 and do 5 Swings with a bell you’ve never swung before (or your heaviest), run to cone 3 for 10 Swings, cone 2 for 15 Swings and finally cone 1 for 20 Swings.

Rest

Second set we started on the heaviest bell for 5 reps and worked our way to the lightest cone.

We used the end of class to work on Cleans and Presses.
