Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Endurance (10/10): For time: 1-mile run, 100 handstand push-ups, 200 alternating pistols, 300 pull-ups, 1-mile run, all while wearing a 20/14 lb weight vest. This is an extreme 'Murph-style' chipper with very high-volume, high-skill gymnastics and loaded running, demanding exceptional endurance and mental fortitude.
  • Stamina (10/10): Massive volume of vested gymnastics: 100 HSPU (pushing stamina), 200 Pistols (unilateral leg/balance stamina), 300 Pull-Ups (pulling/grip stamina). Combined with 2 miles of vested running, this will exhaust every aspect of muscular stamina to an absolute limit.
  • Strength (8/10): All gymnastics are performed with a 20/14lb vest, making them significantly harder. HSPU, Pistols, and Pull-Ups all require high relative strength, amplified by the vest. The vested runs also have a major strength endurance component.
  • Flexibility (6/10): Requires shoulder/wrist mobility for vested HSPU. Excellent hip/ankle mobility for vested Pistols. Full range for vested Pull-Ups. Basic running mobility, challenged by vest.
  • Power (3/10): While kipping can be used for HSPU/Pull-Ups, the emphasis is on completing the massive volume under load. Pistols are more control/strength. This is not primarily a power WOD.
  • Speed (3/10): Pacing is absolutely critical for survival and completion. This is about managing extreme fatigue over a very long duration across multiple demanding tasks under load. Finishing is a monumental achievement.

Modality Profile

A Hero WOD dominated by high-skill gymnastics movements (pistols, HSPU, pull-ups) with running as the monostructural component. The gymnastics movements comprise three-quarters of the workout by movement count.
