Why This Workout Is Easy
A 12-minute AMRAP of basic bodyweight movements. Tests fundamental work capacity.
Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Stamina (6/10): High repetitions of air squats (50 per round), push-ups (30 per round), and pull-ups (15 per round) test muscular endurance in fundamental patterns.
- Endurance (5/10): A 12-minute AMRAP of basic bodyweight movements provides a moderate cardiovascular stimulus, testing sustained effort.
- Speed (5/10): Efficiently cycling through the bodyweight movements with minimal rest is key for maximizing rounds.
- Power (3/10): Kipping pull-ups and explosive push-ups can contribute, but the focus is on consistent output over many reps.
- Strength (2/10): Primarily bodyweight movements; relative strength endurance is tested rather than maximal strength.
- Flexibility (2/10): Basic range of motion for squats, push-ups, and pull-ups.
