Hero workouts aren’t just long and painful for the sake of it. They’re named after real people, and they’re written to ask a little more of you than a normal training day.

In this episode we talk about:
• What makes a workout a “Hero WOD”
• Why CHAD1000X (1,000 step-ups) feels so demanding mentally
• The intrusive thoughts, doubt, and boredom that show up in the middle
• The difference it makes to do something like this with a room full of people
• How this kind of training builds durability for everyday life, not just for the gym

Whether you’re brand new to CrossFit or you’ve done a bunch of hero workouts already, this is a down-to-earth look at why we keep coming back to them and what they can build in you over time.
