Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Power (9/10): Grace is a classic test of Olympic lifting power-endurance. Each clean and each jerk is an explosive, full-body effort. The goal is maximal power output sustained over 30 reps.
  • Speed (8/10): This WOD is a sprint. Cycling reps quickly, minimizing rest between reps (touch-and-go if possible), and maintaining bar speed are all crucial for a fast time.
  • Stamina (7/10): Cycling 30 reps at this weight requires significant grip and core stamina, as well as stamina in the legs and shoulders to maintain technique and speed under fatigue.
  • Strength (7/10): The 135/95 lb load is moderate-heavy for many; absolute strength is a significant factor in the ability to cycle reps efficiently and quickly.
  • Endurance (5/10): A short, very intense effort. While not long in duration, 30 clean-and-jerks at 135/95 lbs performed for time creates a significant metabolic demand and pushes anaerobic threshold quickly.
  • Flexibility (5/10): Clean and jerk technique requires good mobility in hips (for the clean catch and dip for jerk), shoulders (for the rack and overhead position), and wrists.
