Superhero September WOD Challenge- 09-07-25
This Week’s Hero WOD: The Captain Theme: Built around grit, weighted carries, and endurance — channeling superhero resilience. Workout – For Time: - 800m Run with Sandbag (50/35 lb) - 50 Pull-Ups - 100 Push-Ups - 150 Air Squats - 400m Farmer Carry (2x 53/35 lb KBs or DBs) - 800m Run with Sandbag (50/35 lb) Scaling Options: - Pull-Ups → Ring Rows or Band-Assisted - Push-Ups/Squats → 50 / 100 reps instead of full volume - Farmer Carry → Dumbbells, kettlebells, or even a loaded backpack Stimulus: This is a long grind—expect 35–50 minutes for most athletes. - Functional grit with weighted carries - Bodyweight volume that builds toughness - Mental resilience from start to finish Why It Works: Hero WODs aren’t just about reps—they’re about showing up for something bigger than yourself. The weighted carries tie directly into our Superhero September theme, forcing grit, discipline, and endurance under load. ✅ Post your time, scaling choices, or lessons learned inside this thread. 📸 Bonus: Share a sweaty pic after finishing The Captain and tag @ignitefitness_training with #phoenixrising and #igniteathlete to get featured.
