Course Description

Siege Conditioning is a fitness program that incorporates scenarios and gamification to deliver collaborative, competitive and fun workouts without the rigidity of standard group formats. This is not a fitness class where everyone is doing the same thing at the same time. Participants are given an objective with a few actions they can take to help their team achieve victory. Each action requires physical effort to accomplish. Actions such as:

• Sabotaging the enemy team by running a lap and completing 3 burpees.
• Loosing a trebuchet at an enemy watch tower by tossing a medicine ball at a target to knock it over.
• Reinforcing a watchtower by completing 3 squats, 3 push ups and 3 squats.

All fitness levels are welcome for our 45-60 minute classes. Whether you are starting your physical health journey, or looking to shake things up from your current routine, this is the class for you.

While each class will work your upper and lower muscle groups, each week will have a focus point and scenario.

• Week 1: Watchtower Siege Scenario - Upper Body
• Week 2: Supply Line Siege Scenario - Cardio / Core
• Week 3: Trebuchet Sabotage Scenario - Interval
• Week 4: Archer Defense Scenario - Pyramid
