Hold Onto Your Partner!
Training for Tough Mudder Part 3
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.
If you want to take on a Mudder course, there’s no one better to train you than Coach K. He’s ranked 20th in the country in Spartan Racing, and he’s the Reigning North American Age Group Champion in the 3k, and this week he has some exercises to prepare our members for another obstacle.
Coach K has already given us his tips for the Everest and Kiss of Mud obstacles. Now, he has some advice for getting through Texas Hold’em. This obstacle is all about balance. You’ll grab hands with a friend, lean away from each other, and shuffle sideways. If you want to succeed, Coach K has three tips:
1: Communicate with your partner.
2: Take it slow and steady.
3: Pick a partner with the same build as you.
To get ready for Texas Hold’em, Coach K recommends training balance and core. You can start by balancing on one leg for time, and doing planks and side-planks to build your core. If you come into our arenas to train, our balance rails are perfect for training balance, and if you bring a friend, we can use our quad-steps to make a training version of Texas Hold’em!
There will be a Tough Mudder Kids event in Colorado on July 24th and 25th, and one in Dallas on November 6th and 7th, so start your training now!
