Team run become a reebok man. How to pass the stages of "Reebok

Reebok is taking on the world with a new "Become Human" communications campaign.

"Become human!" Reebok is a bold challenge to the world to change the way people view fitness. The brand supports those who are not afraid to step out of their comfort zone and train to the limit in order to achieve their maximum potential. This concept is also contained in the brand logo itself - the Delta sign, the three sides of which symbolize the physical, intellectual and social transformations that occur to us through intense training.

Reebok's new campaign focuses on fitness at its peak. And it's not just physical activity- this is what allows you to improve your body, become better and stronger. Whether you're running the Reebok Spartan Race, setting a new PR in CrossFit WOD training, or pushing yourself to the Les Mills BODY COMBAT, Ultimate Fitness is a way to change your life, expand your mind, strengthen your spirit and reach your potential.

In a video to support the campaign, titled "Freak Show", Reebok acknowledges that this mindset can often be confusing to others. But this is the path for those who are ready to become more than they ever imagined by training to their limits.

Jan Martin, Vice President of Global Brand Communications at Reebok, said: “A new generation of athletes has arrived. These are people like us, but for them, achievement and recognition are not expressed in awards, but in the realization that through fitness they transform their lives. We are confident that such athletes will become role models.”

The campaign has created a special section of reebok.com/bemorehuman where every fitness enthusiast can define for themselves what it means to "become human" by taking some exciting and unexpected tests and learning about the effect of intensive training on brain activity. .

"WHAT PERSON YOU ARE"

"TRAIN YOUR BRAIN"

An interactive 3D visualizer visually demonstrates how various physical exercise affect brain function. This is a scale with various activities, from the easiest - reading a book, to the most intense - an obstacle race. By moving the cursor from label to label, you get a comprehensive answer about which parts and functions of the brain are activated in each case, and which human qualities the selected load contributes to the development of.

"NEW LOOK FOR SELFIE"

Fitness fans who want to change the idea of ​​true beauty have challenged the glamorous and fake selfies. As part of the "Become Human" campaign, they show themselves in their most exhausted state after a workout, taking lively and honest photos without embellishment and staged poses. You can support activity in social networks using the hashtag #BREAKYOURSELFIE.

The launch of the new campaign will culminate in an epic fitness event for those who are ready to test their limits and challenge the ordinary. February 21, 2015 in Moscow, at Poklonnaya Hill Reebok will host an outdoor obstacle course. Teams of 6 people over 18 years old will take part in the competition. To test yourself for strength on the Reebok track, just fill out a questionnaire on the website WWW.STANHUMAN.RF. Registration starts on February 9th.

For everyone who comes to cheer for friends or actively relax, numerous master classes will be organized by professional athletes and instructors, as well as DJing and dancing classes that will take place in the Reebok Classic zone. In addition, on the first day of the race in the park will pass concert of the group "Basil" (beginning at 16:00), and on the 22nd of the guests there will be a performance of the group "My Michel" (beginning at 15:00).

Also, visitors to the event are waiting for lessons in street self-defense and master classes in acrobatic rock and roll.

About races with testsReebok. Become human"

Races with tests «Reebok. Become Human” is a competition for teams of 6 people (recommended combination of 3 men and 3 women, 4+2 is also acceptable). The distance has a length of 5 to 7 km and includes 10-12 tests, most of which are designed for group performance. The test scheme changes every time, specific tasks become known only on the day of the competition. The technique of performing exercises during the tests is monitored by the judges, the time of passing the route is recorded by the telemetry system. Persons over 18 years of age may participate in the races.

For me, "Become Human 2018" is the first such race with overcoming obstacles. Somewhat similar to fun starts that were at school, but the loads are much more serious. Can't say that I'm not sports man, from childhood was engaged in dancing, volleyball and athletics. But preparation for the World Cup, constant business trips and routine office work have made their own adjustments to sports. Largely because I missed physical activity, decided to take part in the race this year as part of the "Championship" team.

Preparing for the run

As I mentioned above, the race involves serious tests for the body. So, it is very important to properly prepare yourself, to know and feel your body. There are several options.

Some Tips

Since the weather in May decided to please us, the race was held in the open sun and a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius (although sometimes it seemed that even more). Therefore, one of the main tips - do not forget about hats and sunscreen. Water also should not be written off. During the race, you will be offered to freshen up only three times. And then, the first is only before the sixth frontier out of 14 possible. Before the start, be sure to conduct a team warm-up. Try to run with a rope to understand how to place the forces correctly.

Difficulties of the race

There are several tests that have caused particular difficulties for the "Championship" team. What were the mistakes and how to avoid them, I will describe further. It will also help you save time.

The main load in this test goes to the arms and press. This stage cannot be called super-difficult, concentration and teamwork are more important. Task: lie down in pairs on mattresses, tear off the body and legs from the ground, and in this position, without touching the mattress with parts of the body, pass pancakes weighing from 5 to 25 kilograms back and forth four times. The penalty for breaking the rule is a squat.

Error: team members are far apart on mattresses. Because of this, the entire team received 24 additional squats, which affected the performance of the following tasks. How to fix it: take your time doing the exercise, carefully check how far apart you are from each other, try to imitate the transfer of pancakes to a teammate. Only after that indicate to the volunteer that the stage is ready.

At the previous stage, we ourselves created a problem for ourselves, because of which some of the guys got clogged legs and jumped or squatted, they were not able to. And the main load in the test just goes to the leg muscles. Task: jump the distance with a fitball overhead from a sitting position back and forth, at this time the team squats 10 times with a rope overhead.

Error: jumping out with a fitball, with its direction only up. This did not allow jumping forward to overcome the distance. How to fix it: while jumping, keep the fitball above you, but directing it forward. This will make long jump much easier and save you time. Tips: Don't forget to shake and lightly massage your leg muscles when you have a free minute.

Stage number 13.

The horizontal bar and rings - at the end of the entire distance - this is a very powerful load. Here you have to endure with all your might. The qualities of real fighters are manifested. Task: participants must pull themselves up 60 times on the rings from a prone position. At the moment when one performs pull-ups, the rest hang on the horizontal bar.

Mistake: wet hands! How to fix: there are two types of horizontal bars on the test. Those that are lower - without bandages, higher with bandages. It is better to put a person with wet hands on a horizontal bar wrapped with a bandage so that a person falls less often.

In general, I advise everyone to try their hand and run the "Become Human" race. This is not only a sport, but also a fun time with friends or colleagues. Songs and charges are heard at a distance, and teams even sometimes help each other with encouragement. Challenge yourself and trust me, you won't regret it!
