So you have signed up for an obstacle course race and now you are wondering what exactly you have gotten yourself into. Wall climbs, mud, water hazards or maybe fire; what were you thinking? Well there is no turning back now, so you’d better start to assemble your obstacle race training program to get yourself in tip top shape. But before you do, I suggest you do one thing. Become very, very familiar with one exercise…
If you are not using kettlebells as part of your obstacle race training program you are missing out! Strength training for an obstacle course race should not be confined to power lifting or circuit training alone. Joe from Race Day Domination takes us through a workout.
Even if you are not a “runner” you will still need to include run workouts into your obstacle race training program. However, depending on the length of your race, you might not need to log 10 mile runs or pound out 90 minutes on the trail to improve your stamina, endurance, or calorie burn.
When designing your obstacle race training program, it is not enough to just run or just lift. To fully prepare yourself for race day, try training multiple energy systems and muscles in one workout. Race Day Domination provide us with a quick workout.
