The event consists of two timed sections, each featuring three run-and-exercise combinations. In Heat 1, two groups of up to six participants will complete one of the sections. After a short break, the groups will switch and complete the remaining three run-and-exercise combinations.

Heat 2 will follow the same structure as Heat 1 for the remaining two groups.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES & REP RULES:

1 Lap Run:

Each 1 lap run is around half the field.

Lateral Hurdle Jump (30 reps):
Jump sideways over the hurdle with both feet together. Land softly with knees slightly bent to absorb impact, keeping your core engaged for balance.

Rep Rule: The rep counts only if both feet clear the hurdle at the same time.

Push Ups (30 reps):

Maintain a straight line from head to knees or toes. Lower your chest until it touches the push-up marker, then push back up. Keep your core engaged to protect your lower back. Women may perform push-ups from their knees.

Rep Rule: A repetition only counts if your chest touches the marker and both arms are fully extended at the top.

Walking Lunges (60-meter distance approx.):
Step forward and gently lower your back knee toward the ground. Keep your torso upright and your core engaged to protect your knees and back.

Rep Rule: Each rep counts only if the back knee lightly touches the ground.

Broad Jumps (26-meter distance approx.):
Use both feet to push off the ground explosively and land with both feet together, knees slightly bent. Swing your arms for momentum and keep your gaze forward to maintain balance.

Rep Rule: Both feet must leave the ground and land together. Participants must begin each jump from the exact spot where they landed—no stepping forward before the next jump. If a participant loses balance and falls forward, the next jump must start from the point where their feet first made contact with the ground.

Full Sit-Ups (30 reps):

Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Engage your core as you lift your torso, bringing your elbows to touch your knees. Lower slowly to protect your lower back.

Rep Rule: A repetition counts only if your elbows touch the tops of your knees at the peak and your shoulder blades return to the mat at the bottom.

Burpees (20 reps):
From standing, drop into a plank with hands under shoulders, then return to standing with a jump and arms overhead. Land softly and engage your core to protect your spine and knees.

Rep Rule: Each rep counts only if your body fully extends during the jump with arms overhead.
