Core Team Building Activities

Obstacle course training combines running with functional strength, grip work, and obstacle-specific skills, focusing on endurance, explosive power, and agility to conquer challenges like walls, ropes, and carries. Key elements include trail/hill running, bodyweight exercises (burpees, pull-ups, squats, push-ups), grip training (farmer’s carries, hanging), and practicing burpees (often the penalty for failure). A good routine integrates running with strength circuits, often on varied terrain, and builds up specific skills like rope climbs and wall traverses.
