Why This Workout Is Hard
Hero WOD (AMRAP). 23 mins: C2B, heavy power cleans (135lb), squats, weighted plate run. Tests strength/skill/conditioning under load.
Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Endurance (8/10): A 23-minute AMRAP combining chest-to-bar pull-ups, heavy power cleans, air squats, and a 400m run with a plate creates a substantial and sustained cardiovascular and muscular endurance challenge.
- Stamina (7/10): Cycling power cleans (135/95 lb) and performing C2B pull-ups under fatigue from loaded runs tests strength-stamina and grip endurance.
- Strength (7/10): Power cleans at 135/95 lbs are a moderate-heavy load. Running with a 45/35 lb plate adds a significant strength endurance component to the cardio.
- Power (7/10): Power cleans are an explosive movement. Maintaining power output during the loaded runs and lifts is tested.
- Speed (5/10): Maintaining a good pace on the loaded runs and efficiently cycling through the other movements is key for maximizing rounds.
- Flexibility (4/10): Requires mobility for power cleans (hip hinge, catch position) and C2B pull-ups.
