Why not? Its a great thread. Prompted me to alter the way I was training. Theres a couple of books listed in there that are worth checking out IMO.

BS2004:
Those are good exercises, and can improve your performance somewhat, but the only one the Army really cares about is doing good, correct two-count push-ups for the APFT.

You read it wrong. It takes me about 4 throws, sometimes 5, to get it the 25 meters.

Okay, okay. I don't think anyone here wants to hear you brag about your "sandbag". (btw, that's a funny name for it)

Damn good work out. I need to get Furey's book so I can learn all the workout techniques.

NDD, Great workout I do one like it with a buddy of mine. We take the exersizes from the USMC Daily 16, do a set of say pushups, run a lap, lunges, run a lap, burpees run a lap, etc. What sort of reps are you doing for your exersizes a standard 50 a peice or mix it up based on exersize or how you feel? Cool to see the sandbag in there I need to use mine alot more. I also recently filled some little kids plastic baseball bats with sand, kind of a clubbell thing. Only cost a few bucks but alot of fun.
Take Care

I mostly go by how I feel. Time can get to be a factor as well. I am apparently much slower at everything I do now.

Here is a decent website for reference. They do a good job blending endurance with power, bodyweight relative strength with absolute strength.

combat conditioning vid?
I've been messing around with hindu pushups, squats, and back bridges. And I'm curious if anyone has come across any videos online. So I can check my form. Time will tell, but it seems like a nice change from the typical Navy SEAL calisthenics. And a good supplement to the run/ruck/swim I normally do in a week.
In the meantime, I'll keep googling and pushing.
