Endurance | 7/10 | The 10-1 descending rep scheme of three major lifts (Deadlifts at 1.5xBW, Bench Press at BW, Clean at 0.75xBW) is brutally metabolically taxing, a classic test of strength-biased conditioning. |
Stamina | 9/10 | Extremely high demand on muscular endurance to complete 55 reps each of heavy deadlifts, bench presses, and cleans relative to bodyweight. Posterior chain, pushing muscles, legs, and grip will be severely tested. |
Strength | 10/10 | This WOD is a benchmark for relative strength and strength endurance. Lifting 1.5x bodyweight for deadlifts, 1x bodyweight for bench, and 0.75x bodyweight for cleans, for this volume, is an exceptional strength test. |
Flexibility | 4/10 | Requires mobility for deadlifts (hamstrings, hips), bench press (shoulder retraction, arch), and cleans (front rack, full squat depth if squat cleaning). |
Power | 6/10 | Cleans are a primary power movement. Deadlifts and bench presses, if cycled with intent, also contribute to power output. Maintaining power across the descending ladder with such significant loads is very challenging. |
Speed | 4/10 | Efficiently cycling through reps for all three lifts and minimizing rest is key for a good time, but managing the extreme strength fatigue and load is paramount. |
