While a similar practice has always been in my training regimen, Blane's Hell Night and your Gauntlet are far more intense. It may be that I do it alone, so there's no real reason that pushes me to literally kill myself that day... But I'll see about starting something organized in my area. Thanks.

I walked around the private property where I usually train. I think I could set up something similar like this for myself. Make it really basic now, and amp up the difficulty as I get better. There's an industrial laundry chute that drops 6 floors into the basement.  [Edit] Checked out the laundry chute last night. It hasn't been used in probably 10 years, so it was pretty nasty. Getting up to the first floor chute opening is easy enough. Unfortunately, it's a tight squeeze, with no hand-holds on the other side, and the door is spring loaded. I think I will not put this in my beginning level gauntlet. |

Your article really inspired me to make my own gauntlet here in Cali. Colleges are so good for this so I'm working on one at UCLA. I created a mini gauntlet that I put some of the guys through that I train with. It lasted about 1hr. We went to five different areas doing 3 rounds of different conditioning drills.
Your article was so good with all of the pics and the descriptions. I'll see if I can't get some this week or weekend and show you what I've come up with.
It was such a great workout. I can't wait to keep doing it every week. And I'm anxious to come to Colorado to train with you and hopefully check out your gauntlet. (maybe this summer).

I finally took some pictures of the gauntlet I created. I was also able to get some video footage. Here's a link to my write up, the video is at the bottom: http://pauldarnell.com/uclagaunt.html |
