The above rep counts would be for an elite athlete looking to have more than the requisite power to navigate our courses. The Spartan 1500, as written above, is a muscular endurance super-charger. It’s not impossible to do the above workout in 1 hour, but you’ll have to go through hell to do it.

You can divide all the rep counts by 10 and still have an effective strength training workout. Always scale a workout based upon your current level. Maintaining proper form is far superior than pushing out a few sloppy last reps.

Welcome to the land of classic WODs

We hope that these WODs spark your imagination as to how far and in what ways you can push. Diversity in training will result in diversity as an athlete. Creativity in training will result in the creation of a dynamic and unstoppable racer. An ability to successfully respond to a panoply of adverse conditions is requisite in Spartan Races – never get comfortable, always keep pushing.

This is why we want to equip you with the tools to get the job done. Whenever you are stuck for a new workout, just swing on by here.
