Scott and TacFit are back at it! Leading you through an intense workout that will ready you for all the practicalities and skills necessary to survive in the Army, on the battlefield or in training, Scott uses a series of exercises to develop needed skills and abilities. Particularly worked in this video are the strengths and reactions that a Soldier would need for hand-to-hand combat fighting. TacFit makes your Army fitness training tactically enhanced. Create a routine with these exercises and you’ll be able to handle any opponent on the battlefield in close-quarters combat.
Club-bell shovel snatch: Scott alternates each arm, grabbing the club-bell and raising it laterally in explosive fashion out from his body and over his head. Imagine that you are trying to swat an enemy combatant’s strikes and throw them back off of you.
Incline rope climb: Besides the obvious training in this exercise for rope climbing which is often needed in the field, this exercise assists in defensive and reactionary positions when in hand-to-hand combat or in your Army training.
This kind of movement conditions the body to be able to pull itself up quickly and back to a” ready” offensive position ASAP! Also, this same motion is used in Army combative training when grasping an opponent by the collar area, as they hover over you, and pulling them down to your level. You can then roll on top of the opponent and pummel them.
Strap roll out: This exercise builds the endurance and strength of the latisimus dorsi, the parts of the back under the armpit and on the upper and middle back. This body part is integral for the pulling ability of a Soldier. This will enable them to climb and traverse obstacles as well as being able to pull enemies down and into a headlock position. This complements the abilities gained with the incline rope climb.
One arm bent over pull: In Army operations and in your Army training injuries and casualties will occur. It is inevitable. It is your duty as a fellow Soldier to be able to evacuate those casualties from danger and the battlefield with swiftness. These bent over pulls develop the back and shoulder muscle to pull a comrade off the ground and sling them over your shoulder then back to carry them out of harm’s way.
One arm bent over push: These one arm barbell pushes can do two things for the Soldier. It develops the explosive power of the arms, shoulders, and upper chest so that they can easily move heavy weapon systems to higher positions for enhanced line-of-sight. Also, imagine the explosive power that is being developed when you are forced to throttle an enemy in close-quarter combat. Punch, jab, chop, and push at the throat, face, and ears to disable and disorient the enemy-then you have them!
The Plyometric Caterpillar: This is a multi-muscle exercise that builds the endurance of the cardiovascular system and the core. Incorporating this type of exercise conditions the body to be able to withstand hours of use and without a strong core the body will not have a reserve to pull from for extra power. The core is the stabilizer of all muscle movement and the endurance to go with the power is a much needed ability.
Twisting rope catch: The twisting rope catch works much in the same way as the Incline Rope Climb but it also incorporates two variances. First, your entire body is in free-fall for a moment and when you latch on to that rope your grip, forearms and the fast-twitch muscles of the entire arm and back are engaged. This helps incredibly when an opponent is forcing you to the ground-at the last instance you can snatch them and bring them with you! Secondly, the Twisting Rope Catch incorporates the oblique muscles for ferocious twisting power of the torso-as you snatch the enemy, twist violently so that when you both go to the ground YOU are on top then unleash the powerful punches and jabs you developed with the Dumbbell one arm pushes!
Reverse guard drop step: Notice the motion Scott is using with the club-bell. In certain situations you will be able to toss combatants over you, especially when they jump out from higher locations such as stairs and windows. Also, combat is not always fair and Army Soldiers may find themselves fighting two or more opponents at once. This exercise conditions the body to be able to drop step and turn bringing their weapon around with lethality.
Speed jump rope: This is another endurance building exercise. The worst thing to happen to a Soldier in the Army and during his Army training is to find himself winded in the midst of battle or operations. Always keep that cardiovascular system in prime shape to be able to go the distance. It will mean the difference between victory and some serious trouble!
As you can see with these various exercises the benefits of TRX and TacFit are that it develops all the necessary abilities and skills that are needed by Soldiers in Army training and combat operations. Nothing can be left to chance when it comes to forming the body into a precision, high-performing, battle machine. Let TacFit work for you!
