Spartan race preparation

[kerryads]

What kind of lifting regimen would you guys focus on for preparation for a spartan race? Probably a lot of cardio and running right ?

Yeah sounds like you already have the start of a good plan. Probably lots of body weight resistance exercises as well.

If that's what the race involves then yes.

I have no idea what spartan race is but doesn't sound like a walk in the park. So yes, having good stamina is probably a plus.

you would train for it like any race. whatever it will be, do tempo training at 60-70%, with a high intensity training day mixed in once every week or two.. that is the most dummy proof way to train for it.

the more you train for it, without over training.. the better you will do.. and make sure you get good rest the 2 nights prior to it

I'd just work on increasing strength, explosiveness and endurance. Keep it simple

Train according to the needs of the race
