Reading the article above I discovered 5BX, based on a Canadian Airforce fitness routine form the 50's.



I remember finding a 5BX booklet in my teens. My dad was a pilot, and many of his colleagues were ex-air-force, so probably one of his pals told me about it. I probably did it for a week or two.

It's progressive, and seemed designed to be something you could do anywhere with zero equipment. I think they wanted you to run a mile, either when finished or at another time.

Not nearly as comprehensive as more modern routines (no pull), but I can see that if you are the CO telling a whole air base to "do something" every day, this would do nicely.
