"Herc" is essentially a heavy sandbag attached to a rope and pulley system. Each competitor must pull on enough rope to raise the weight to the top then gently lower it back down without it free-falling. Look like a pro and brace one foot on the fence and use your body as a counterlever. Comes in Sprint, Super, and Beast flavors. Check out the Spartan Obstacle breakdown for tips on how to tackle Herc Hoist and every other challenge you'll face on race day. https://sprtn.im/3XIj1Kg #Spartan #Unbr
