Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (10/10): Extreme test of upper body pushing and pulling stamina, as well as grip endurance, to complete 100 muscle-ups.
  • Strength (8/10): Muscle-ups require significant relative upper body strength for both the pull and dip components. Maintaining this over 100 reps is a huge strength-endurance feat.
  • Power (7/10): The kip and transition of a muscle-up are highly explosive movements. Maintaining this power for 100 reps is a key challenge.
  • Endurance (5/10): While primarily a gymnastics skill test, performing 100 muscle-ups for time will have a significant metabolic impact, especially if sets are large or rest is minimal.
  • Flexibility (5/10): Requires excellent shoulder and wrist mobility for efficient muscle-ups, particularly the transition and dip phases.
  • Speed (4/10): Efficient cycling of muscle-ups is important, but managing fatigue and avoiding failure on such a high-skill, high-volume task is paramount.
