App Description

Protocol X is a one-of-a-kind health and fitness app that provides a variety of extreme metabolic conditioning workouts.

WHO'S IT FOR:

Anyone interested in functional fitness, health, weight loss, and/or just want to add metabolic conditioning to their workout.

It is especially suited for tactical and sport athletes, obstacle course/mud run racers, and fitness enthusiasts of all types.

INSPIRATION:

Protocol X got its inspiration from tactical athletes (military members, fire, police etc.), and the perseverance of wounded warriors.

THE PROTOCOLS:

ALPHA

A 3-exercise workout that includes sprints or agility drills. The protocol requires the user to complete as many rounds as possible in a selected amount of time. It includes a countdown timer and round counter.

BRAVO

A 3-exercise workout executed in pyramid format (known as a Power Pyramid). Choose to be a recruit, athlete or warrior and as fast as possible climb to the top of the pyramid by executing the stated incremented number of reps; reverse and climb back down the pyramid as fast as possible. Protocol Bravo includes a stopwatch timer in order to record your workout and check your progress.

CHARLIE

A 4-exercise workout executed sequentially with no rest between exercises. Move immediately from one exercise to the next, and rest one cycle of the timer between rounds. The chosen intensity level (recruit, athlete, or warrior) will determine work and rest time. Complete the required number of rounds as stated in the chosen intensity level, then finish with a one-mile run. Use the countdown timer and round counter to stay on target.

DELTA

A 5-exercise workout using the Tabata Protocol timing method. Each exercise is executed in a 2:1 work/rest ratio format. The user completes six continuous rounds of the exercise rests for 2 minutes (two complete cycles of the timer) and then moves on to the next exercise. The round counter can assist with keeping track of rounds completed.

ECHO

A 3-exercise complex workout. Do the 3 rounds of the first complex, executing each exercise sequentially before resting. The chosen intensity level determines the work and rest intervals. Then hit the arrow button to get a new set of 3 exercises for the second complex. Finally hit the arrow again for a movement drill to complete 5 times.

TACTICAL MOBILITY

A 4-exercise workout executed in a 1:1 work/rest ratio with exercises that emphasize mobility through metabolic conditioning principles. Complete the required number of rounds as stated in the chosen intensity level (30 sec of work/rest ratio never changes). Use the countdown timer and round counter to stay on target.

X-WARRIOR CHALLENGE

A 5-exercise extremely challenging and intense workout using the AFAP (as fast as possible) principle; only for the fully conditioned. Use the stopwatch to record your time. The challenge begins with a 1-mile run then complete 100 reps of each exercise in order. Finish with 3 rounds of 25 yard shuttle runs. The “X-Warrior” Challenge randomly chooses exercises from both Level 1 and Level 2 exercises providing thousands of possible variations.
