Snakes and Ladders (Competition Entry – Finisher)

This workout is an entry to this year’s Bootcamp Ideas Competition. It has been submitted by Daniel Smith from Melbourne, Australia.

Snakes and Ladders

Drill Length: 10 mins

Drill Category: Finisher

Equipment needed: Ladders, Battle Rope, Dice

How it works:

Set Up two Ladders parallel to each other with 10-20m between them as well as a battle rope set up out of the way.

At the end of each ladder have one dice (I use a tub to keep the dice from getting lost or rolling too far).

Members start at either one of the ladders and complete a traveling exercise through the ladder, at the end of the ladder they will pick up and roll the dice, if they roll a six they must run to the rope and complete an exercise until somebody else rolls a six to replace them, if they do not roll a six they run to the next ladder and repeat.

Drill should be fast paced and high energy and members will enjoy the suspense of the dice rolling

I do rounds of 1min30s with a 30s break and then reset the drill to avoid anyone getting stuck on the rope for too long.

I run 5 Rounds With the following exercises

Rounds 1 and 2: Ladder- Single Steps, Rope- Single Slams

Rounds 3 and 4: Ladder- Double Steps, Rope- Double Slams

Round 5: Ladder- Both feet in both feet out (jumps) Rope- Single Slam with butt flicks

All round times and exercises can be changed to suit your clients!

About Daniel:
