The Brock Fit team challenge on June 25th will test the overall power and strength of several area athletes.
The challenge is made up of functional movements including: tire flipping, deadlifts, gymnastic rings, and thrusters, designed to incorporate everyday movements and use every muscle in the body. “I created this challenge to promote health and fitness and the Soldier On program, which was created to help military personnel who have suffered injury or trauma get back on their feet by improving their physical fitness through recreation and sport.
There are 10 teams of six competitors each coming from Kingston, Ottawa and surrounding areas to compete against several local teams including a team from the Brockville and Landsdowne OPP offices and three groups from our local military.
The event will begin at 8a.m. with the opening ceremonies at the Brockville Rifles Armory.
