Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (8/10): High total volume of diverse kettlebell exercises (SDHP, OHL, Snatches, C&P, Swings at 24/16kg) combined with 100 double-unders per round tests full-body muscular endurance, grip stamina, and shoulder stability extensively.
  • Endurance (7/10): Two rounds of a long sequence of varied kettlebell movements interspersed with double-unders will be metabolically demanding, testing kettlebell-specific conditioning and coordination under fatigue.
  • Power (7/10): KB Snatches, Swings, SDHP, and Clean-and-Presses are all explosive movements. Double-unders also have a plyometric component. Maintaining power across many different KB skills is key.
  • Strength (6/10): Kettlebell movements at 24/16 kg (53/35 lb) are moderately heavy, especially for movements like single-arm OHL and C&P. This tests functional strength endurance.
  • Speed (5/10): Efficient transitions between KB movements and double-unders, and proficient cycling of both, are important for a good time.
  • Flexibility (4/10): Requires mobility for various KB movements: hip hinge (SDHP, swings, snatches), overhead position (OHL, snatches, C&P), and squat depth (if C&P involves a squat clean).
