Today we celebrated the Marine Corps Birthday! We used traditional Marine Corps PT movements. All exercises (except the body builders) are to done with a 4-count cadence (so every two push-ups equals one rep, every 2 star jumps equals one rep, etc.). Team up with a buddy and complete all reps of each exercise collectively before running each 400.
