Spartan workout, aka “300”

This workout is linked to the post on Mark Twight at Gym Jones.  Now im about 6 months from trying this but its a test I intend on doing every 6 months from here on end while im still breathing  to test my strength and endurance progress.

 “300” is a one-time test, an invitation-only challenge undertaken by those deemed ready for it. By the end of our four-month project 17 people had done the workout. This constitutes about 50% of the cast and stunt crew. We supervised every test, evaluated each rep for quality and only counted those that achieved our standards for form and range of motion. Like many workouts “300” is not hard once you’ve done it but the apprehension built up ahead of it – something we encouraged – was enough to make some guys fear it to the degree that performance was compromised. This workout was a crucible that some passed through and others still have hanging over them.
