A divide exists between military veterans and the civilian community. With the fighting force consisting of only 1% of the country's population, that divide is growing. This fact is damaging to Veterans as they attempt to reconcile their lives as they exit the military, and face a population that many times does not understand their experience. Team RWB, and WOD for Warriors, aims to bridge that divide.
On Memorial Day, I, along with my partner Brad Hawley, will be completing the WOD for Warriors "21 Guns," in honor of our veterans and in hope to raise money and awareness for TEAM RWB.
The WOD:
Partner #1:
21 Pull-ups
21 Burpee Box Jumps (20" Rxd)
21 Firemans Carry Back Squat
21 Burpee Box Jumps
21 Pull-Ups
Partner #2 executes
Partner #1 again
Partner #2 again
The 21 reps signify a 21 gun salute, the 5 exercises are one for each Branch of the Military. Executing with a Partner signifies the bonds we aim to create between our Nation's Warriors and the communities they grow in and return to, and doing it twice reflects the fact that we honor both the living and the deceased.
