For those of you that aren’t familiar with my quest to complete the 300 test, check out these posts here and here. I have been attempting to complete a 300 test. The pics are ridiculous and just for fun… not meant to be taken seriously. I almost went the distance this time. I was SO [...]

Last night I did a pretty intense fun workout that I thought I would share.It is a circuit that I put together from a mixture of other popular circuits like Craig B’s. I know that there are a lot of other exercises than burpees in here but I liked the sound of it! Do each exercise [...]

I added a blanket cape (way too thick)… and changed the broom to a spear this time (with a little paint help)! I tried the workout before with little success. I thought I would do this again and see if my training over the past month had made me a better spartan at all. The [...]
