Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

Endurance (9/10): Two rounds of a 1-mile run, high-rep double-unders, OHS, and pull-ups make this an extreme test of cardiovascular and muscular endurance.
Stamina (9/10): Very high volume of double-unders (400 total), overhead squats (100 total), and pull-ups (100 total) will severely tax stamina in multiple muscle groups (calves, shoulders, grip, legs, core).
Strength (7/10): Overhead squats at 135/95 lbs for 50 reps per round are a significant strength-endurance challenge. Pull-ups also test relative pulling strength endurance.
Flexibility (7/10): Excellent shoulder, hip, and ankle mobility is crucial for performing 50 overhead squats per round with good form.
Speed (5/10): Maintaining a strong running pace and efficiently cycling through the high-rep movements without excessive rest is critical.
Power (4/10): While primarily endurance-focused, the initial drive in OHS and the jump in double-unders have power elements.
