Why This Workout Is Hard
Hero WOD (Triplet AMRAP). 20 mins: muscle-ups, HSPU, heavy KB swings (70lb). Tests high-skill gymnastics/power endurance.
Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Stamina (8/10): Cycling muscle-ups, HSPU, and heavy KB swings (70/53 lb) for 20 minutes demands substantial upper body (MU, HSPU) stamina, core/grip stamina, and posterior chain/grip stamina (swings).
- Strength (8/10): Muscle-ups and handstand push-ups require significant relative upper body strength. Kettlebell swings at 2/1.5 pood are a heavy load that tests strength endurance.
- Endurance (7/10): A 20-minute AMRAP of 2 muscle-ups, 4 handstand push-ups, and 8 heavy kettlebell swings (2/1.5 pood). This triplet tests high-skill gymnastics and power endurance, creating a significant conditioning challenge.
- Power (7/10): Muscle-ups and kettlebell swings are explosive movements. Kipping HSPU also utilize power. Maintaining power output for 20 minutes is a key challenge.
- Flexibility (5/10): Excellent shoulder/wrist mobility for muscle-ups and HSPU. Good hip hinge for heavy KB swings.
- Speed (5/10): Efficient cycling of all three movements with minimal rest is crucial for maximizing rounds. Managing fatigue on the skill elements is key.
