It Hurt Like a Cross Race

Yesterday I worked out with the recruits. Our workout started with 10 push-ups. Then we ran through a rolling trail though the woods. When we came out of the woods we did 10 Turkish Get ups (See the video below). That is what really hurt. We did them using 35 pound dumbbells. Try them. Then we ran on a gravel trail that went led to a paved road to pull up bars. 10 pull ups. Then off through a mulch trail to the start again.

Each lap had about 1/2 to 3/4 of a mile of running. Each lap had 10 push ups, 10 turkish get ups and 10 pull ups.

We did 4 laps. Every time I started a running leg I thought it hurt like a run up during a cross race.

Those turkish get ups are no joke.
