There are NO BearCrawls this week. YHC is sure that all of F3 Nation is happy about that. This week’s challenge was designed for the “Clydesdales” of the Nation. There is no running, no burpees, no jumping. Just good ole fashioned block work. Oh, yeah……you won’t put the block down the entire time.
Reminders
Submit your score here or by clicking the “Weekly Submission Form” link on the menu in the upper right corner. You can complete the workout as many times as you like, but the last score submitted will be the one used in calculating your place in the standings. The scoring window will stay open for the entirety of the Iron Pax Challenge; but in order to be considered for the weekly competition, you must complete the workout and submit your score by midnight the Saturday following the release of the workout.
This is a You vs You challenge. Guys are going to be faster and stronger than you and that’s okay. All that matters is that at the end of the workout, you can say that you went as fast or as hard as you could. And if you answer yes to that question, than you completed the challenge. This is designed to push yourself and your region to grow together.
Once again, ScarU is providing suggestions on how to modify the workout so all men can participate. There is nothing wrong with modifying the work. It’s You vs You. Keep pushing yourself. Making yourself better.
