Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (8/10): Cycling 71 double-unders per round (total 497) tests calf and shoulder stamina. The barbell complex (14 DL, 6 HPC, 9 FS at 135/95 lb per round) demands significant grip, back, leg, and shoulder stamina.
  • Endurance (7/10): Seven rounds of high-rep double-unders and a moderate barbell complex (deadlifts, hang power cleans, front squats) creates a significant metabolic demand, testing skill endurance and cardiovascular fitness.
  • Strength (6/10): The barbell load (135/95 lb) is moderate, but performing 29 total reps of varied lifts per round for 7 rounds tests strength endurance significantly.
  • Power (6/10): Hang power cleans are an explosive movement. Double-unders have a plyometric component. Maintaining power in the barbell complex under DU fatigue is key.
  • Speed (6/10): Efficient cycling of double-unders and the barbell complex, with quick transitions, is crucial for a good time.
  • Flexibility (4/10): Requires mobility for deadlifts, hang power cleans (front rack), and front squats. Wrist/shoulder mobility for double-unders.
