Challenge #2 - The PFT (Physical Fitness Test)!


F5 February Boot Camp Challenge #2 PFT TEST

Here is your next challenge! Have each member of your team pick any 3 of the following physical exercises and test yourself to see where you are at before midnight on Sunday (Feb 7)! We want you to see what kind of progress you have made this month and also give you goals to shoot for!

Run 1 mile and time yourself

Run 3 miles and time yourself

PULL-UPS: See how many pull-ups you can do (you must use good form, as in, you need to start each pull-up in a "dead hang" position, arms straight and fully extended) For those that cannot do a pull up- you could make it your goal to get to 1-2 pullups before the month is over.

PUSH-UPS: See how many push-ups you can do non-stop. You must use good form. Lockout your arms completely with each push up (no halfway push-ups, and go all the way down till your chest hits the ground). For those that are just starting- you can do knee assisted push-ups and see how many you can do.

DIPS: Full body dips. You can also do chair assisted dips (use proper form)

CRUNCHES: See how many crunches you can do in 2 minutes time

SIT-UPS: (see how many you can do in 1 minute- must do military style- lock hands behind the head and keep elbows down)

PLANKS: Time yourself (must use good form- keep back straight, proper positioning, and see how long you can hold a plank)

DEAD HANG: (find a bar and hang from the bar w/ your arms extended and time yourself to see how long you can hang)

Take a video of yourself for each of the challenges you accomplish (minus the running ones), so we can share and enjoy watching each other suffer!! #miserylovescompany

3 is the minimum number of challenges required of each team member! However, you can do as many as you want!!

Your team will be awarded 200 awesome points for each challenge each member of the team takes on. For example, if I did 5, John did 7, Lisa did 3, and Ann did 4, that would be a total of 19 for our team and we would accumulate 3,800 AWESOME POINTS!!

Captains- please keep track of the awesome points for your team!

If you do not know what proper form looks like- please watch this video done by our F5 personal trainers Shion Shironishi and Pete Lingas for great tips!

Deadline for this is Sunday midnight!!

  1. What does "3 is the minimum number of challenges required of each team member" mean? Does that mean if one person doesn't do three that there are no awesome points? Or that only those that do at least three get awesome points?

  2. Hope you got your answer. Yes, that is what it means
