Endurance | 8/10 | A chipper for time (20-min cap) with box jumps, then clean-and-jerks with increasing weight (95lb up to 315lb) and decreasing reps, interspersed with single-leg squats (pistols). This is an extremely demanding test of strength, skill, and conditioning, with very heavy lifting at the end. |
Stamina | 8/10 | Performing box jumps, then cycling C&J at progressively heavier weights, and performing high-volume pistols, requires significant leg explosive stamina, lifting stamina (full body for C&J), and unilateral leg/balance stamina (pistols). |
Strength | 9/10 | The clean-and-jerk ladder progresses to extremely heavy weights (up to 315/205 lbs). Pistols require high unilateral leg strength. This WOD is a significant test of maximal C&J strength and strength endurance under fatigue. |
Flexibility | 7/10 | Requires mobility for C&J (front rack, squat, overhead) at all loads. Excellent hip, knee, and ankle mobility for pistols. Hip flexion for box jumps. |
Power | 9/10 | Clean-and-Jerks are a primary power movement. This WOD tests the ability to generate high power repeatedly with increasing loads while fatigued from other elements. |
Speed | 4/10 | Efficient cycling of box jumps and pistols is important. For C&Js, technique and power are more critical than raw cycling speed as weight increases. Pacing to reach and attempt heavy lifts is key. |
