Monthly Workouts to test the mind as well as the physical.

Reasons why we do FUBAR...

We are not mainstream trainers. At ‘Stronger Faster Fitter’ we don’t care about image the latest gadget or fitness fad. What we do is TRAIN & TRAIN hard for performance. And we think that matters. The thing is, real performance based fitness is endangered; you might find that hard to believe? After all the number of commercial gym members is astounding. And everyday at around 6pm the globo gyms are packed with people prancing around in their brand new Gucci kit trying to improve their well being or look good for their holiday three weeks before they go. Unfortunately, few if any of them are truly training in away that will cause any type of physical adaptation. What they are doing is a half hearted type of movement that has as about as much in common with true fitness as pissing in the wind. And with all that half hearted nonsense the human race is losing its soul, a soul that started with our ancestors running down dinner! Real fitness was predatory to its core then and is predatory to its core now, and globo trainers are our prey. ‘Stronger Faster Fitter’ athletes are hunters! So if you are or become a ‘SFF’ athlete revel in the fact that you sit firmly at the top of the ‘Real fitness’ food chain. So train like an animal.

FUBAR #4 April 2010

You are never really playing an opponent. You are playing yourself, your own highest standards, and when you reach your limits, that is real joy.--
Arthur Ashe
FUBAR#4 April 2010

'The Box' Special (Blatantly adapted from CF Fran WOD)

21-15-9 reps of:

Thruster @40kg (M) 25kg (F)
Gold standard Burpee (Press-up) with 8ft target jump touch
As fast as possible.

2 min Rest Then into:
Max effort Jingle-Jangles (5m shuttle sprints) in 2 min.

The above combo of Thruster and burpee was put together to alleviate the limitation of an individuals ability to do a kipping pull-up, thus allowing the athlete to still blast through this type of session and not grind through with frustration. I personally find that this combination also induces a higher oxygen debt when done with meaning and intensity!!!!!
