How To Build An Obstacle Wall

After a recent episode of the podcast, I mentioned that I have some obstacles in my backyard including an obstacle wall.

I received an email asking me how to build an obstacle wall.

I dedicated an entire chapter to building obstacles in your back yard in the book I wrote last year.

The materials for the obstacle wall are relatively inexpensive and it will only take 1-3 hours if you can make it with a friend.

Chapter 14 : Creating a backyard obstacle course includes step by step instructions on how to build an obstacle wall.

It also includes

Sandbags (making and workout examples)

Car Tire (acquisition and workout examples)

Tractor Tires  (acquisition and workout examples)

Spear Throw  (making and workout examples)

There is also some suggestions on how to create your own backyard obstacle course, once you have put together the obstacles.
