I'm starting to train for the Pittsburgh tough mudder and I'm not sure what to do. Please help!
I did my first TM in November, was amazing and cant wait for my next! Only advice is good all-round fitness. I hit the gym 5 days a week anyway with a balance of cardio (mainly running) and weights! I also did some extra sessions using the Insanity workout, just to notch it up! Looking back I wish I worked on my upper body strength more though as you really need it!I'm starting to train for the Pittsburgh tough mudder and I'm not sure what to do. Please help!
I workout 4 to 5 times a week with split routines and do my cardio at local parks with exercise stations at them. My stamina is very low and I'm having trouble getting it higher because I quit smoking a little over a year ago but never did any cardio to help my breathing get better until lately. I'm super pumped for this event I just feel like I don't have enough time to prepare because it's in August in Pittsburgh.
Best of luck with that. Me and a couple of friends are planning on doing a TM in May in Boston. Looking at the videos and obstacles I would recommend HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) keeps your cardio up and works o your strength which you will definitely need. Helps with improving your recovery time and muscle endurance.I'm starting to train for the Pittsburgh tough mudder and I'm not sure what to do. Please help!
The exact location for the mudder hasn't been given yet but they said within a 15-20 mile radius I believe.Where's this mudder at in the burgh? I live about 25 miles north of Pitt
