The Chiefs’ Workouts

Join the PSP Fitness team for a series of fitness challenges featuring workouts inspired by CPO1/CWO in the National Capital Region.  

Our PSP Fitness and Sports Instructors (PSP FSI's) will lead a Chiefs workout, a friendly competition to encourage maximum participation in physical fitness across all formations/organizations located in the National Capital Region.

CWO Rousseau's Workout

The third challenge will take place on 4 July in 7 PSP facilities across the NCR (101 Colonel By, Startop, Leitrim, Carling Campus, 455 de la Carrière, Shirleys Bay and Conventry) and will be inspired by CWO Martin Rousseau.

How it will work:

  • All regular scheduled classes on the 4 July will be diverted to the Chief Workout.
  • All interested members are to register through PSP “special events” (using a DWAN computer) for a time and location to conduct the workout.
  • PSP FSI's will be the OPI for the event and will run it at the prescribed time and location.
