Crush Your Week: Project 300 Week 2 Workouts

BY The Spartan Editors

Welcome to Week 2 of our 28-week Project 300 bodyweight training program, designed to build strength, endurance, and overall athleticism while prioritizing recovery and injury prevention.

By strategically blending running, strength, and conditioning sessions, our Project 300 program will help you develop a well-rounded fitness foundation for long-term performance and health. Each week for 28 weeks, you'll have five days of work, one day of active recovery of choice, and one rest day. Each day, your workouts will be one of the following (except for Sunday, which will always be your rest day):

  • Running and Strength: steady runs with targeted strength training

  • Conditioning: high-intensity, full-body sessions

  • Strength: focused strength training

  • Long Run

Your running distance will begin at 3 miles and you'll work up to a max distance of 13.1 miles. This program will be released on a weekly basis. If you missed Week 1, find that here to get started. If you've already completed your first week, congratulations! You've done the hardest part: starting. Now let's keep that momentum rocking into Week 2.

What are the benefits of adding mobility exercises to your workouts?

Each week throughout the Project 300 program, you'll have an active recovery day that's engineered to focus in on controlled transitions and/or deep stretches, refresh your body, refocus your mind, and tap into the enthusiasm that will keep you going for 28 weeks strong. Here's why adding a mobility workout to your weekly programming is always a good idea:

  1. Relieves muscle and joint stiffness

  2. Increases range of motion

  3. Improves functional movement and ability to do everyday tasks

  4. Improves mental focus

  5. Preserves joint health
