“Sweating Blood” is a group that a group of us formed about a year ago and we have been working together to develop different strength training practices drawing upon influences such as Crossfit, GymJones, Zach Even-esh and military training - as well as our own individual experiences and imagination of intense outdoor strength training.
Working within this group of friends, to engage in the kinds of intense practices together and to experience the support and energy that each of us bring is a real humbling and unique experience. Strength training can be and is a highly individualistic practice, to break this and to be a part of a group and to a group experience opens up different forms of development than what is available as an individual. If I reflect on what this group within the Integral AQAL framework, it is essentially a Lower/Right, Exterior/Collective group.
The philosophy of the group is to create a network of support, with a commitment develop intense training programs as peers and to engage in total effort every-time to a point where we joke you will “Sweat Blood” - which is where the name came from. We have a blog site that contains most of our training over the past year. I welcome you to have a look and I share this as another perspective of training.
