Join us for The Fighting Fit’s biggest event of the year — our annual MURPH Workout, Fundraiser, and BBQ happening Saturday, May 24th at The Fighting Fit Gym in Wyandotte!
This Memorial Weekend tradition honors our fallen heroes, challenges our fitness, and brings our community together for a powerful cause.
This year, we're proud to announce that all proceeds will go toward purchasing a protective vest for a Detroit Police K9.
(One of our Fighting Fit members will be getting his K9 partner in July — and sadly, the city does not supply vests for their K9 units.)

What is the MURPH WORKOUT?
The Murph is a hero workout named after Lieutenant Michael P. Murphy, a Navy SEAL who was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2005. It was one of his favorite workouts — and he often completed it wearing body armor.
The workout:
🏃♂️ 1 mile run
💪 100 pull-ups
💪 200 push-ups
💪 300 air squats
🏃♂️ 1 mile run
(Optional: Wearing a 20 lb weighted vest)
(Scale options = bike or row instead of run. Complete as a team of 2 or 3). Other scaled options also available.
We complete this workout every year to honor Lt. Murphy’s sacrifice — and the sacrifices of all our fallen service members. It's tough by design, reminding us to push through challenges the way our heroes did.
