Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Strength (10/10): This is a direct test of maximal carrying strength and strength endurance under extreme load relative to bodyweight.
- Stamina (9/10): Carrying such a heavy load for a mile will severely tax leg, core, back, and potentially grip/shoulder stamina, depending on how the load is carried.
- Endurance (8/10): Walking 1 mile with 150% of bodyweight is an extreme test of loaded cardiovascular endurance and overall stamina.
- Speed (2/10): While not a sprint, maintaining a consistent walking pace under such a heavy load is challenging and contributes to overall time.
- Flexibility (1/10): Minimal specific flexibility required beyond what's needed for walking under load.
- Power (1/10): Not a power-focused WOD; emphasizes sustained strength and endurance to move a very heavy load over distance.
