Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (8/10): Totaling 45 S2OH (135lb) and 45 C2B pull-ups. This will severely tax shoulder/pushing stamina and upper body pulling/grip stamina. Maintaining output for all reps is very demanding.
  • Endurance (7/10): A 21-15-9 rep scheme for time of shoulder-to-overheads (135/95 lb) and chest-to-bar pull-ups. This is a classic high-intensity couplet testing upper body pushing and pulling endurance under significant metabolic stress.
  • Power (7/10): Shoulder-to-overheads (e.g., push jerk, push press) are explosive movements. Kipping C2B pull-ups also utilize power. The WOD tests sustained power-endurance.
  • Speed (7/10): This WOD is a sprint, demanding fast cycling of both movements and minimal transition time. The ability to maintain a high pace is key for a good score.
  • Strength (6/10): Shoulder-to-overheads at 135/95 lbs are a moderate-heavy load. Chest-to-bar pull-ups require good relative pulling strength. This WOD has a strong strength endurance component.
  • Flexibility (4/10): Requires good shoulder/overhead mobility for S2OH. Full range for C2B pull-ups.
