Greetings Warriors of the U.S. Army! This is app is first a workout companion. We call out the exercise and cadence, you perform the reps (too easy!). Second this app is to teach you how the new Army PRT system works with in depth reference. This app is targeted to the seasoned NCO that needs to learn the new system and the young Specialist bucking to go to WLC.
In March of 2010 the Army finally released TC 3-22.20 the long awaited revision to FM 21-20. Although badly needed we were little prepared for the massive overhaul of the old PT system. Weve got a host of new exercises to learn, cadence structures, and a the new philosophies of Progressive Readiness.
Learn each of the new exercises with pictures and descriptions from the text. Once you have a good grasp of the mechanics you can jump into the exercise drills. Well call the exercise and count the cadence for you. After you have the individual drills down youll be ready to take on our full workout sessions.
Note, the workout sessions are designed from TC 3-22.20. We dont know your readiness or fitness level so participate at your own risk. Reference Chapter 5 of TC 3-22.20 for a detailed guide on how to plan workout sessions with the new model.
