Drills for Large Classes Using 2020 Armor on a Bag (BOB/Wavemaster)

Pro Tips for a smoother class operation

• Charge 2020 Armor vests & headgear overnight to make sure you have full battery usage for the class. Turn the units on to make sure all they are in working order before class starts
• Tie the vests on the Bobs/Bags before class starts to save time.
• Have two spare 2020 Armor vests & headgear on standby if any go down during class to avoid downtime
• Once you set the games mode, sensitivity and time on each vest – guide your students to know and understand where the play/start button is located and explain the 3 second countdown timer.
• Instruct your students to fall into another line if the vest goes down so there is no stoppage

Heartbeat 101 - Stamina. Game: 8 // Sensitivity: Level 1-3 Beginner. 4-6 Intermediate, 6+ Advanced // Time: Various

• Team Based - Time: 30 Seconds. Choose a strike that all students will do on the vest. They must repeat strikes to keep the health alive until time runs out. Each student will execute the strike as hard and fast as they can one after another.
  
  
• Add Rotation - Time: 3 minutes Choose a striking combo that all students will do on the vest. At any time, the instructor blows a whistle or any command to switch. All teams together will have to run in front the bag to their right and continue striking to keep the health alive. If a vest depletes all the health - that team will be added into another team whose vests are still alive with health until time or health runs out.

• Set vests apart at a distance enough for students to run 3-5 steps (for example a Square or rectangular orientation).
  
  
• Choose a strike that all students will do. One student will start in front of each vest while the rest of the students will be in line. Once time begins, students will strike and run opposite to the next vest and cycle through the line. Students will have a short rest period when waiting in the line. If vest loses health, students will skip that vest and use remaining vests in the game. Goal is to see how long they last.

Beatbox 101 - Timing. Game: 7 // Sensitivity: Level 1 // Time: 3 mins (Suggested ages 10+)

• Choose strikes you would like your students to execute. For example only upper body strikes/only left leg/only push kick or freestyle. At any point, the instructor commands to switch to the next student (for 5 -10 seconds) and they will continue where the last student left off. This game mode requires more attention and focus as they will have to continue with the timing of the strikes.
