Run in Mud Obstacle Race Training-10/29/15

Pull ups on your own or buddy assist

I am working on grip strength for the Battle Frog Atlanta. I am haunted by the memory of falling of the Rig at the Spartan Sprint Nashville and don't want to repeat that at Battle Frog. I can't burpee my way out of that one.

Grip strength can be improved through pull ups, carrying, and hanging exercises. I've incorporated those into my daily workouts. Today's workout includes 150 pull ups and 60 burpees

10 pull ups x 5 on pull up bar (various grip positions)
5 pull ups using climbing grips
5 pull ups using rope
10 pull ups x 2 on pull up bar (various grip positions)

Run 4.1 miles. Run speed intervals between mail boxes for miles two - four
