Rules: 

1.  While one teammate is completing reps the other must be holding an ab bridge.  
2.  If the teammate holding the ab bridge touches down teammates must switch.
3.  No reps may be counted unless the ab bridge teammate is in position.  
4.  If the ab bridge teammate touches down while the other teammate is running THAT teammate loses the Rx.


Workout Notes ...

  1. The thing about this workout is, it will SMOKE your shoulders. It's meant to smoke your abs, and it does, but it has to go through your shoulders to get to them. On average, the vets will spend a little less than 20 minutes planking throughout this workout. ROUGH! If your shoulders start to object and you'd still like to stay in the game, try this move Shmoopy is demoing. It'll give your shoulders a bit of a rest. 
  2. Break the planks into more manageable chunks by timing half the reps (or whatever), then plank, then do the other half (or whatever), and plank.
