So many option to get you ready for that next Obstacle Course Race! Visit as many times as you need during open gym to get ready or really commit and do several a week, whatever works. 

Open Gym

Drop in anytime to train on OCR obstacles such as walls, rigs, rope climb, traverse walls, and many other obstacles seen at a race. There is always staff on hand that could help with technique as needed. You could even use the fitness room as long as there is not a class going on. We have wreckbags, kettlebells, battle ropes, jump ropes, and other equipment to get your own workout in. We have Open Gym 7 days a week so any day can be a day of training. 


6 Weeks to Sparta

This program consists of a 45 minute workout followed by 45 minutes of obstacle training with a Spartan SGX Coach. These classes are the perfect lead up to any OCR, not just Spartan Races. You’ll learn how to climb a wall, climb a rope, carry heavy things properly, throw a spear, move more efficiently, and many more skills. Trainings run on Thursdays from 7 - 8:30 pm with more time slots opening as the classes fill. See Program Session dates below.


Spartan SGX Classes

These classes are held Monday and Fridays from 6:30 -7:30pm and lead by a Spartan SGX Coach. These are our most structured classes to help get you stronger and more prepared for any OCR. It progresses safely through 3 month cycles starting with foundational work, then athleticism, followed by power development. We also do specific obstacle techniques in our last phase to prepare you. This class is structured so that a beginner can jump in and has the ability to challenge even a veteran to OCR. 


Other Training Days


We will be working with the race directors to offer a one-day training at Ultimate Obstacles. You’ll get a workout and also open gym on the obstacles to practice. We will be getting different perks at these trainings which may include discount codes and schwag. We will announce more details as we confirm dates.


Calendar of Races


We are lucky to live in an area that has so many obstacle course races. That being said, we can’t go to them all! Below are the races that we already know put on a quality event and that also work with our schedule at Ultimate Obstacles. Most of these races also offer a kid’s course which is great since we have many parents and kids that are involved in OCR’s. These are the races that will be counted towards the UO OCR Team Incentives.
