Day 151 - Tough Mudder Tactics: Hold Your Wood


Hold Your Wood is a physically-demanding obstacle on the Tough Mudder course. Pretty simple though, pick up a piece of wood, on your own or with a friend, and carry it for a desired amount of time!

Make like a lumberjack and carry a heavy log through a section of the Tough Mudder course. If the course is flat, expect to be lugging your log for at least 1/2 mile. If the area is hilly or mountainous, get friendly with your wood because you’ll be hauling it up a steep and challenging ascent.

This obstacle requires total-body strength and conditioning as you are required to lug a heavy log around. You may be required to carry the log uphill, through water, through mud, etc. so some upper body strength, as well as core strength will by beneficial.
