Brooke Cheney, owner of A Great Start Shooting School, combines 100 daily abdominal exercises with shooting drills on her private range for week two of the Bombshell Goal Digger Challenge. She pairs each crunch with a single shot using four 10-round magazines, drawing on 15 years of competitive shooting experience and training from Kathy Jackson and Tatiana Whitlock.

All right, welcome to my range. My name is Brooke Cheney. I'm the owner instructor here at A Great Start Shooting School, and I'm also part of the Bombshell Goal Digger Challenge. My glasses fog up as soon as I start to talk. And what am I doing here today? I'm going to do some of my goals. One of my goals this week is week 2 of the Goal Digger Challenge, and what we are doing is 100. 1-0-0. 100 ab exercises each day this week. Tuesday through Monday. We've got one day off to give our little bellies a chance to recover. So today's crunches or sit-ups. And so what we're gonna do here at my range today is I'm gonna be doing my crunches and sit-ups because, you know, we'll see. Some of it'll be sit-ups, some of it'll be crunches. So here's what the setup is. I'm going to set up my range here and put a target up and load my ammo. I have 4 10-round mags, so each one of the magazines is going to be 10 sets or 10 reps, which is 1 set. And I'm going to do a sit-up or crunch, and then I'm going to shoot my target. I'm gonna do sit-up and a crunch, and then I'm gonna shoot my target. And here's the deal, just so we're clear. This is a closed range. I'm the only one here because it's my range. It's my private range. Number 2, I have been shooting professionally for over a decade and a half now. Team Icarus, gotta shout them out. That's who my sponsors were when I was doing competitive shooting. I am not suggesting that people go out and do this, but in my bombshell challenge it said do a video of a place where people wouldn't think you would do crunches necessarily. And so my little brain said, well, most people don't have a private range. Hmm. Most people don't have the training to be able to do what I am about to do. And I'm going to give a shout out to Kathy Jackson and Tatiana Whitlock. And those people who taught me how to get up and down off the ground with a firearm safely. So, trained professional, please don't try this at home. This is not for everyone. This was a challenge put out there by Bombshell, and I just want to say that, you know, they are also— this was not their idea either. They're like, you come up with something, and this is what I came up with. So here you go. I'm gonna put in fast forward so y'all get to see it a little bit quicker so you're not here for 20 minutes, because that's probably how long it will take me to do all that. All right, enjoy.
