There was the suspended ladder -- had to hang and go hand over hand along the rungs, turn around and repeat and repeat as long as you could for up to a certain time period.
There was the crab crawl facing forward going a distance and then returning backward, timed event.
Plus the Push up , sit up and 2mi
rumors . . .RUMORS!!! now I have gone from FOG to something so long ago it is only told in legend . . . sheesh

... and we who were smaller, agile, and fleet of foot could really smoke that sumbitch!
. It was fun to watch the big, heavy guys try to navigate the horizontal ladder. (Of course, we all had to navigate about 50 ft of it to get to chow 3x daily in Basic.)
Why do I feel like I should say these things while sitting in a rocker on the front porch of the general store as I whittled and spit!
