WORKOUT DETAILS
The Tuskegee Airmen, a group of African American military pilots who fought in World War II, had the motto "Spit fire". The motto was a reminder to the pilots to be aggressive and tenacious in protecting allied bombers and destroying enemy fighters. The Tuskegee Airmen were also known as "Red Tails" and "Red Tail Angels" because of the distinctive deep red paint on the tails of their fighter planes.
WORKOUT FLOW
The pair will alternate rounds. Partner one performs a round while partner two rests. The Athletes must commit to a version of the workout each round and may change the selected version each round. Once a round has begun with the completion of one rep, there can be no changes for that round.
The score for the Double Under/ Toe to Bar version is 2 points per completed round. The score for the Single Under/ Toes to Something is 1 point per round. The final score will be the total of completed round points for the pair. These will be referred to as “Round Points”. There will be no score for partial rounds.
