K-Bar’s Morning PT

The following is a standard Pre-SOF morning PT to keep the edge of your knife sharp.  Recommendations  are as follows:

  1. Don’t rush through exercises – adopt a nice even flow in each set and don’t give up.
  2. Go all the way through the workout without breaking sets up.  You can take a short breather between exercises, but not during a set.
  3. Keep your head up and your eyes open.  Stay mentally tough – especially when the pain starts to make you want to take a break.

The entire workout should take no more than 1 hour.

    Great routine to make a habit of.. Got a few people to do it with me too.

  2. Matt says:

    Where can I find some examples of these exercises? I’m not firmiliar with all of these but would love to try this WOD. Thanks!!!

  3. Coach says:

    The exercises that you are not familiar with are standard dynamic stretching exercises. I was unsuccessful in finding them on-line, but encourage you to use some of your own dynamic stretching exercises in their place.

    The only rule to follow, if you decide to attempt this, is to stretch out the area affected by the previous exercise. If you just did push ups, then the stretch should be for the chest, for example.

    Have fun, and let me know if anyone finds a good place online for the military PT style exercises.

    Hoo-Yah!!

    What exactly is the “Up/Back/Over” exercise? How is it performed?

    Hello hunnie, sweet blog! I genuinely treasure this post.. I was wondering about this for a while now. This cleared a lot up for me! Do you have a rss feed that I can add?

    it would be great to get feedback from the Brass Ring crew.

    Up, back and overs are a shoulder stretching exercise. Standing up you raise both arms up high, then drop them forward passing by your side and back behind your waist then all the way back up and over rotating the shoulder and arms 360 degrees and back to start your next one.
