@athx_games was so much fun 🤩
What attracted me to this competition was the separation of events: strength, then endurance, then a metcon. Especially the strength part 😏
You even receive time to rest and recover between each event.
-Strength: establish 1RM BB OHP, then 3RM BB Squat, then 5RM DL (only 6 mins to establish each one!)
-Endurance: accumulate the most distance within 22 minute time cap. Partners alternate 750m Run & Row erg
-Metcon: an onslaught of exercises to be finished as quickly as possible!
I competed in a pairs team. Shout out to
@turbofitmama for agreeing to compete with me 3 days before the event! That takes a lot of courage 👏🏻 and you saved me because there’s no way I could have done all that on my own 🫠
This was their first time in Houston and I can’t wait until they come back next April so I can participate again. Thanks for putting on a great event!
@athx_americasP.S. - I tried to write “THX ATHX” on the wall, but my brain and hands were not cooperating after finishing. All the Hs turned into Xs 😜
