Run in Mud Obstacle Race Training-10/19/2015



Thanks to Mettle Forger for the following workout idea.  https://www.facebook.com/mettleforger?fref=ts

This is a great workout in prep for Spartan Sprint, Warrior Dash, Savage Race, or Battlefrog.

I incorporated the following workout. However, instead of the the 2 mile run, I ran 5.1 for time as part of my obstacle race training. Other than the run, this workout was challenging and took me some time to do as I was not able to complete all the reps within 2 minutes. Unfortunately at the end of each 2 minute period I only did 30 pull ups, 60 push ups, 60 sit ups, and 75 squats. 

Here are some of the platforms and hand holds I used to complete the pull ups:


This multi-grip pull up bar is awesome.
I added straps for variety

This rope makes a great pull up hand hold
























The 4x6 swing set board, the rock climbing hand holds
and Cannon Balls make great hand holds for pull ups










I came back and finished the pull ups in sets of 5's and the push ups, sit ups, and squats in sets of 10s.

Run 5. 1 miles 
Run the first mile easy then finish the run as follows for the duration:
1/4 mile fast
1/4 mile recover speed 



                                                         




Do great pull ups:
