WaThoHuk Challange

0

The Preblast said it all.

The WaThoHuk Challenge is a different F3 workout, no cadence, no COP, no Mary.This is you vs you to set a baseline to compare back to at a future challenge (end of October) It goes like this…Perform exercise 1 using whatever time you need to still have the best form you can muster. Once complete you will run, walk or crawl a predefined lap around the perimeter of the parking lot which is about 1/4 of a mile.Get back and complete exercise 2, do lap, etc. Get through as much as you can until time is called.

If you cheat or cut corners you are only hurting yourself and your baseline. I don’t care if it takes the whole time to get through one or two things, that will be the baseline you will work towards crushing the next time. For example, bend those elbows on a merkin, at the same time do the full rep, don’t race and “bounce” the merkins, etc.
