Bullets Don’t Care About Weather | SPARTAN GAMES SN. 2 EP. 2

The athletes face a wet, cold and blustery day one in Big Bear, but their excitement to compete outweighs the poor conditions. In DEKA Heavy, the weighted sled push quickly becomes many athletes’ Achilles heel. Tempers flare in the Special Warfare: No Guts No Glory PAST test when select competitors learn they must complete a swim in freezing waters even though they cannot win points.

DAY ONE EVENTS:
DEKA HEAVY: Ten weighted functional fitness exercises, completed for time.
SPECIAL WARFARE: NO GUTS, NO GLORY: Spartan’s take on the Air Force Special Warfare PAST test (Physical Ability & Stamina Test), which consists of two swims, a 1.5 mile run, push-ups, sit-ups and pull-ups.

Spartan Games: Battle of the Fittest
Sixteen athletes — OCR legends, functional fitness champions and more — enter a new battleground to compete for $50,000. Over four days in Big Bear Lake, California, they will fight through nine grueling challenges that test every facet of physical and mental fitness: obstacle racing, combat, trail running, mountain biking, and a few surprise challenges created with Air Force Special Warfare. Every athlete will be tested. Every athlete will be ripped out of their comfort zone. But only one will be The Fittest.

New episodes every Thursday at 8 pm EST.
