Why This Workout Is Hard
A short, intense 5-minute AMRAP focused solely on heavy squat clean and jerks. Tests maximal power output and barbell cycling under fatigue.
Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Power (9/10): This WOD is a direct test of maximal power output and barbell cycling proficiency with a heavy load. Each rep is a full-body explosive effort.
- Strength (8/10): Squat clean and jerks at 165/110 lbs are a heavy load, making this a significant test of strength and power applied repeatedly in a short time frame.
- Speed (7/10): Fast cycling of reps with minimal rest between attempts is crucial for maximizing score in such a short, power-focused AMRAP. Technical efficiency at speed is key.
- Flexibility (6/10): Requires excellent mobility for heavy squat cleans (front rack, full squat) and jerks (overhead position) to maintain technique under pressure.
- Stamina (5/10): Cycling heavy squat clean and jerks for 5 minutes tests strength-stamina in the entire body, particularly legs, back, shoulders, and grip, under extreme intensity.
- Endurance (4/10): A very short, intense 5-minute AMRAP focused solely on heavy squat clean and jerks (165/110 lb). While not long, the high power output required will be metabolically demanding.
