Pool session THEME: Communication & Teamwork WARM UP: static running, upper and lower body stretches, x2 warm up laps of the pool followed by introduction and briefing. EXERCISE: Multiple rounds of working in teams taking weights and people from one side to the other and, one end of the pool to the other as ‘rescuers’ AKA buddy rescue. Working in groups to take weights (which cannot leave the water column) from one end to the other for multiple laps. If a weight/s leave the water column, add a lap. TIP: Consider mixing it up by adding verbal ‘radio comms’ to a designated captain for team briefings and crew coordination and to injecting problems to solve such as, man down drills in the water and/or changing parameters on the fly. PURPOSE: Engage the team to problem solve, communicate and stay mission focused whilst working together. Allow the team to improvise when and where you may see benefits by hinting ‘alternative solutions’. PM for more details.
