Now that we’ve got the inspiring, motivational, blah blah f*cking blah description out of the way, let’s talk Bad Ass America in real people language. First and foremost, there’s a challenge. A knock down, drag out, fun as hell obstacle course that’ll make you run, jump, climb, crawl, lift, and slosh your way to the finish line. It’ll be brutal, but it’ll be awesome. During the course you’ll smile, laugh, make friends, curse the friends who dragged you into this torture, and absolutely feel like a Bad Ass. Once it’s over, eat some food, drink some drinks, and have a little fun with the other Bad Asses that ran or came to watch and cheer you on.

As for the “lifestyle” word they use, they mean it. They want you to stop thinking like an average person and start thinking like a Bad Ass when it comes to fitness, nutrition, and living. Their goal is to get you training like an athlete, eating for results, and taking on new challenges every day, all while having a good f*cking time. Don’t worry, they’ll give you plenty of suggestions and will always set an example by living the Bad Ass life.

Rockers that rumble together, stay together. Create a team during registration process. Then invite all of your friends to join the action-packed, gut-busting, mud-slogging insanity. Together you can share the thrills of victory and spills of defeat. At the end of the day you’ll know which friends are truly “Gladiator Tough.”

Teams can be from an army of one to hundreds. They can consist of both Gladiators and Goddesses of all ages as long as they are “Gladiator Tough” and ready to have an exhilarating time!

The team building high ropes challenge course features elevated events that thrill and give participants and organizations the opportunity to rise to their full potential. The course begins with a large, fifty-foot leadership climbing wall capable of simultaneously supporting two individuals while they scale their way to a panoramic view of the city. Other elements include high team building wire walks, a partnership balancing beam, a leadership leap of faith, and the giant swing.
