Climbing Everest

Training for Tough Mudder

This year, Ninja Nation is partnering with Tough Mudder! Tough Mudder is all about teamwork and overcoming obstacles. They hold mud runs and obstacle course events for adults every year, and this year they have two brand new Tough Mudder Kids courses! Mighty Mudder for 8-12 year olds, and Mini Mudder for 5-7 year olds.

There will be a Tough Mudder Kids event in Colorado on July 24^th and 25^th, and one in Dallas on November 6^th and 7^th, so we want to get our members ready to get muddy!

Luckily, the new head coach of Ninja Nation Huntersville, Coach K, is ranked 20th in the country in Spartan Racing, and he’s the Reigning North American Age Group Champion in the 3k, and he has some training tips for anyone looking to take on a Mudder event!

One of the obstacles which will appear in both the Mighty and Mini courses is Everest. It’s a lot like our Warped wall, and Coach K recommends taking the same approach with these three tips:

1: Go full speed

2: Commit

3: Remember to leap for the top!

If you want to train for Everest in one of our arenas, Coach K recommends working your lower body with sprints and squats, and practicing our warped walls.

We hope to see our members crushing Tough Mudder courses this year!
