Spartan 300: WOD: Strength: 10/16/17
Until you've mastered the Spartan 300, stop looking for what's missing in your fitness journey and begin to appreciate what you already have. You have a body. You have gravity. It's easy enough to make a sandbag or simply pick up a rock or a log. Stop with excuses and get to work. You don't need a better gym or more complicated gizmo to achieve results. Get started, that's the secret formula, especially if you are just beginning your fitness journey. That's why we designed our signature Spartan workouts.
The truth of the matter is that the fitness industry is governed by people trying to sell you something. The keys to fitness are always dangled in front of you as if they are something you have to acquire, something you have to pay for the privilege of possessing. But what if you already had everything you needed for a fitter self?
Everything you need to be a fiercer, more capable human is within your grasp right now. We created workouts like the Spartan 300 to imbue you with the confidence you needed to finish our races. We want you to start today, simply giving your best effort.
