Wednesday 5th September 2007 - Kings Park (Jacobs)

TIME: 5:15pm

TYPE: Speed, Strength, Endurance, Competitive Teamwork

EQUIPMENT: 2x10kg sandbags, 2x10kg plates, 2x16kg KB, 2x20kg KB, 5kg medicine ball

2 TEAMS: 1 = Stef & Rod; 2 = Damon & Paul

1 person from team 1 and 1 person from team 2 go down and up the ladder with 1x10kg sandbag each
WHILE

the other team member does the following:
  • run backwards up the street, 10 pushups
  • run forwards down the street, 10 decline (using the bench) pushups
  • farmers walk (KB) up the street, 10 KB pushups
  • farmers walk down the street, 10 KB snatches (5 each arm)
  • unweighted squats until team member finishes the ladder if necessary
SWAP SANDBAG BETWEEN TEAM MEMBERS

10 ROUNDS (5 times on the ladder for each person)

*Note: the idea is to finish your ladder run as fast as possible to get a rest while your partner finishes their series (there may be zero rest)

The winning team gets to pick 1 of the below for both teams!
  • 3x Mount Street runs
  • 4x Jacobs (weighted at the winner's discretion)
  • 50x burpies
  • 2 sets of 50x medicine ball partnered situps
  • 5x bear crawl up the street, lunging down
  • 6x ball slams / 10kg sandbag throws up the street

because you are a wanker :)

i willwin the initial team challenge (even if i have to put amite in rods arse) just so i can choose not 1, not 2, but 3 of the choices you have listed!

and by the way great program! i like it! well done buddy! :)

the program worked almost exactly as expected, good intensity and the timing was almost spot on between the two areas.

total time taken for the winning team (damon & paul) was 43:20.

punishment negotiated was 2xladder and 25 burpies for everyone.

everyone put in a mammoth effort, stef probably needs to trade the 10kg SB for 25kg, use 24kg KB for the walks and snatches.
