Getting the best out of your Ultimate Ninja session

Ultimate Ninja offers a fun, exciting, challenging way to boost physical fitness, coordination, and mood. Whether you’re visiting us for exercise, team building, or fun, you can maximise your session through a blend of preparation, focus, and attitude.

Here, we share 8 ways to get the best out of your Ultimate Ninja session.

1. Dress appropriately and stay hydrated

Choosing comfortable clothing and suitable footwear is essential for your Ultimate Ninja session. Choose breathable fabrics that allow for a full range of motion and avoid loose clothing that might get caught on equipment. Find out more about what to wear to our indoor obstacle course. Staying hydrated is also important during your visit. Bring a water bottle and take regular sips throughout your session.

2. Take time to warm up

Begin your visit with a warm-up to loosen muscles and reduce the risk of injury. Stretches, light cardio (like jumping jacks), or a quick jog on the spot can ensure your muscles are ready for exercise. Warming up improves focus and helps you prepare for the challenges ahead, ensuring you get the best out of your Ultimate Ninja session.

3. Understand the course

Before starting the course, take a few minutes to familiarise yourself with the course layout and obstacles. Have a think about each obstacle’s purpose, rules, and technique, and ask a team member should you have any questions. Understanding our range of obstacles will help to reduce hesitation and improve your performance.

4. Focus on technique

It can be tempting to rush through obstacles, especially in a competitive setting. However, focusing on form and technique often results in faster times and fewer mistakes. Efficient movement reduces fatigue and the risk of injury. If you’re struggling with a particular obstacle, simple adjustments, like foot placement or grip technique, can make a big difference. Discuss strategies with your family and friends or ask a team member for their top tips.

5. Challenge yourself

The Ultimate Ninja course has been designed to enable people to challenge themselves and push their boundaries in a safe, fun way. Attempt every obstacle, if possible, and don’t be discouraged should you fail. If an obstacle seems too difficult, watch others attempt it and learn from their strategies. With consistent practice, even the most intimidating challenges can be conquered.

6. Embrace teamwork

Indoor obstacle courses are the perfect place to work as a team. Support fellow participants as they tackle the course, and don’t be worried about accepting help when needed. Working together builds bonds and can turn a difficult Ultimate Ninja session into a memorable, sociable experience.

7. Reflect and improve

Be sure to take time to reflect following your Ultimate Ninja session. Have a think about which obstacles were easy, which were difficult, and what could you do differently next time. Our obstacle course allows for multiple attempts, so use the opportunity to work on your technique. You might even like to highlight some goals you’d like to achieve over time.

By preparing well, staying focused, and embracing the challenge, you can get the best out of your Ultimate Ninja session. Book your session today, we look forward to seeing you soon!
