LAST HERO WORKOUT AT OUR CURRENT LOCATION… “Weijdt” 5 Rounds for Time 19 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups 12 Box Jumps (24/30 8 Squat Cleans (115/165)   Dedicated to Dutch Sergeant Mark Weijdt, 24 years old, of the 11 Airmobile brigade 12e Regiment van Hutzs who was killed by an IED during a peace mission in Afghanistan on December 19, 2008.

When we contacted the workout’s creator, Mr. Wilson replied, “Mark was a sergeant and my squad leader. He was a sniper. He was a fun guy, very passionate, always positive. I chose these 3 movements to increase heart rate (like the adrenaline rush during our act), box jumps since we were on a hill, and squat cleans because we had to carry Mark (prescribed weight was roughly Mark’s weight). The significance of the rep scheme is: – 19th day – 12th month – 8th year – 5 years since his passing (when the WOD was created in 2013) The workout has since been adopted as a Dutch Hero WOD by gyms in the Netherlands and around the world. “In this way we and many others like Mark Weijdt commemorate a soldier and friend and give tribute to all...
