Endurance | 6/10 | A chipper of very high-volume, high-skill ring-based gymnastics movements. While not primarily cardiovascular, the sheer volume and demand on specific muscle groups will be metabolically taxing and require significant work capacity. |
Stamina | 10/10 | Extreme gymnastics stamina required: 20 muscle-ups, 25 lowers from inverted hang, 30 ring handstand push-ups, 35 ring rows, 40 ring push-ups. This will exhaust upper body pulling, pushing, and core stabilizing stamina to the absolute limit. Grip will be a major factor. |
Strength | 9/10 | All movements demand very high levels of relative upper body strength and control on gymnastics rings. Muscle-ups, inverted lowers, ring HSPU are all advanced strength elements. |
Flexibility | 7/10 | Excellent shoulder, wrist, and core mobility/strength is crucial for all ring movements, especially muscle-ups, inverted hangs, and ring HSPU, to achieve proper positions and maintain stability. |
Power | 5/10 | Muscle-ups have an explosive component. Ring HSPU can be kipped. However, the WOD emphasizes controlled strength and stamina through massive volume on unstable rings. |
Speed | 3/10 | Pacing and managing fatigue across five extremely demanding ring gymnastics movements is paramount. Focus is on completing reps with good form and avoiding failure, not raw speed. |
