Rule Number One: Get out and get after it! Imagine the activities you will be doing, then mimic some of those while you are training. Does the course require some running? Do some running. Does the course require hand over hand monkey bars? Find some. How about climbing over walls? You guessed it… say hello to your neighbors a few times!
Core strength training, cardio, push-ups, pull-ups, hiking up mountains, mountain-biking… stay active and get strong. Fuel your body with healthy food and stay hydrated.
Here are some videos to get the idea across. As we progress we will be posting more training videos and ideas on our blog.
As for now, drop and give us twenty!
