Flexed-Arm Hang. The goal of the flexed-arm hang event is for a Marine to hang (maintain elbow flexion) for as long as possible. The procedures are:
- This is a timed event.
- Assistance to the bar with a step up, being lifted up, or jumping up to the start position is authorized.
- The bar must be grasped with both palms facing either forward or to the rear.
- The correct starting position begins when the Marine’s arms are flexed at the elbow, the chin is held above the bar and not touching it, and the body is motionless. At no time during the execution of this event can a Marine rest her chin on the bar.
- Marines are authorized to drop down below the bar, however, some degree of elbow flexion must be maintained with both arms. Once a Marine's arms are fully extended or the Marine drops off the bar, the clock will stop.
Abdominal Crunch. The goal of the abdominal crunch event is for a Marine to execute as many proper and complete crunches within the prescribed time limit. The procedures are:
- 2-minute time limit.
- On a flat surface, Marines will lie flat on their back with shoulder blades touching the deck, knees will be bent, and both feet will be flat on the deck.
- The arms will be folded across the chest or rib cage with no gap existing between the arms and chest/rib cage. Both arms must remain in constant contact with chest/rib cage throughout the exercise. A single repetition consists of raising the upper body from the starting position until both forearms or elbows simultaneously touch the thighs, and then returning to the starting position with the shoulder blades touching the deck.
- The buttocks will remain in constant contact with the deck throughout the event. No arching of the lower back or lifting the buttocks is permitted.
- An assistant may be used to hold a Marine's legs or feet, at or below the knees in whatever manner that is most comfortable for the Marine. Kneeling or sitting on the Marine’s feet is permitted.
- A repetition will be counted when an accurate and complete abdominal crunch is performed.
3.0 Mile Run. The goal is for a Marine to complete the measured course as quickly as possible. The procedures are:
- This is a timed event.

This is great. Thanks for posting it.
ReplyDeleteSince I am starting the 8 week challenge on Sunday I wanted to attempt this but I have a couple of questions. How can I do the hanging challenge? Any suggestions on that? Also, would running on a treadmill until it reaches 3 miles be acceptable? Thanks in advance!
ReplyDeleteI live with a Marine Vet. This should be interesting to see if he can beat me :)
