#1 Obstacle Dominator Training Manual: 6 Complete Obstacle Race Training Plans For All Levels
Whether you are just getting started in obstacle racing, you want to completely dominate your race, or you just want to have an absolutely amazing, lean, muscle-defined body, the six plans you get in this training manual will equip with you with everything you need to train for each distance, including exercise instructions, helpful videos, obstacle training and racing resources, and much more.
In this 325 page manual that goes way above and beyond standard, ho-hum obstacle training advice, you'll instead get the following:
- 8-Week Obstacle Dominator Sprint Plan – zero-guesswork training plan for 2-5 mile races.
- Sprint Training 4-Week Bonus Add-On – use this bonus to fill out your calendar or as a quick month-long injection of pure sprint fitness.

We've also included three killer bonuses in the Obstacle Dominator Training Manual, straight from the slightly insane mind of Hunter McIntyre:
- Ab Dominator Cash-Outs – prepare to get a flat stomach and ripped six-pack with these optional ab workouts that you can inject at the beginning of any of your workouts, use to “cash-out” at the end of your workouts, or even do as a standalone workout whenever and wherever you want. These ab workouts require minimal equipment, but will build a bulletproof core in no time flat.
- Dominator Warm-Ups – these warm-ups, straight from the seasoned mind of Hunter McIntyre, are unlike anything you've ever seen before. Rather than doing a boring jog or some leg and arms swings, you'll instead get entertaining and unique warm-ups that will increase your fitness just by doing the warm-up itself, and have you 100% prepared to dominate the actual workout! You can also use these warm-ups for your races.
- Dominator Fitness Tests – You can use these unique fitness tests once a week to every four weeks as a check-in to see the crazy fitness gains you'll make as you follow the Obstacle Dominator workouts. These are the same fitness tests that Hunter McIntyre uses to evaluate his progress, and now they can be yours too.
When you combine these three bonuses with the six plans you get in the training manual, you'll have every exercise, workout, test and instruction you need to confidently step onto the starting line of your obstacle race, you'll know that you've wasted no time and you'll be trained just like the seasoned pros!

This is a slick app that allows you to manage your workouts, get workout notifications, keep workout logs, and even upload heart rate and training data (yep, we've totally nerdified it for you data geeks out there and simplified it for those of you that dont dig computers but love your phone).

#7 Obstacle Dominator Fuel: Complete Nutrition Plan for Obstacle Training & Racing
Navigating the world of exercise and performance nutrition can be confusing and frustrating, especially when it comes to eating before your race, fueling your workouts the right way and figuring out how to carry things like fuel and water on the race course without slowing yourself down.
The last thing you want is to be halfway through your obstacle race and completely run out of energy, or worse yet, come down with a bad case of gas, bloating or some other digestive distress.
But Ben Greenfield has put together the perfect plan for you to have everything you need for your obstacle training and racing, from every single meal of the day, to recipes, to fuel prep instructions, to exactly how you should eat for all the different distances of obstacle racing.
Whether you plan on a 24 hour event, or a quick hour long sprint, you'll be equipped with everything you need to know to burn fat, build lean muscle and fuel your body the right way without destroying your gut, including:
- Step-by-step daily meal instructions with easy-to-follow recipes…

It's a shame to see so many fit people (even the pros!) struggling to or not even making it to the finish line simply because they didn't know how to hydrate or fuel properly for obstacle racing.
You definitely wont be one of those people, and you also wont be one of the people who gets fat (or cant put on lean muscle) from the wrong nutrition or improper fueling during your training.
