With my schedule all jacked with limited access to a legit gym, I am adjusting to Fighter+Operator.
Today was set to be an HIC day, but I decided to try an adjusted challenge session. I rucked for 4 miles and every 15 minutes do, alternating, 50 x squats and 50 x overhead press with 45# ruck (as I said, adjusted).
Would this, or any other challenge session count as...HIC, E, somewhere in between?
Challenge sessions
Re: Challenge sessions
Given the rep ranges, I would call it an E/SE session.

Re: Challenge sessions
I'd agree with Adski.
Re: Challenge sessions
Where would the rep range/scheme change the type of workout? More reps? More often?
The original challenge session as per the book is 3 miles with more weight than I had on hand and 100 squats and 100 KB swings instead. Just curious.
Thanks for the responses.

Re: Challenge sessions
It depends on the intensity in my opinion.
It is an SE fun "ruck" if you keep the ruck intensity down or it becomes a challenge session if you push the pace with some shuffling.
Either way you will improve your SE and ability to travel over distance, but it will lean more towards the green end of the training spectrum.
With everything going on i think TB leaning towards the green end of training is the way to go just to get some time outside.
