Workout Description

For Time (15 min cap) 1 wall walk 10 double-unders 3 wall walks 30 double-unders 6 wall walks 60 double-unders 9 wall walks 90 double-unders 15 wall walks 150 double-unders 21 wall walks 210 double-unders

Why This Workout Is Hard

Open WOD (Ladder). Ascending reps: wall walks, DUs. Tests gymnastics endurance/skill.

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

Stamina (8/10): Totaling 55 wall walks and 550 double-unders, this WOD will severely tax shoulder/core/triceps stamina for wall walks and calf/coordination stamina for double-unders. Maintaining output as rep sets increase is very demanding.

Endurance (7/10): For time (15-min cap), an ascending ladder of wall walks (1, 3, 6, 9, 15, 21) and double-unders (10, 30, 60, 90, 150, 210). This tests gymnastics endurance (specifically shoulder/core for wall walks) and high-volume skill endurance (DUs). Cardiovascular demand increases with DU volume.

Speed (6/10): Efficient cycling of both wall walks and double-unders is crucial. Minimizing failed DU reps and moving smoothly through wall walks saves significant time.

Strength (5/10): Wall walks require good relative upper body and core strength to control movement up and down the wall. Double-unders are primarily skill/coordination.

Flexibility (4/10): Requires shoulder/wrist mobility for wall walks and DUs. Hamstring flexibility can aid wall walks.

Power (3/10): Double-unders have a plyometric component. Wall walks are more about controlled strength and stamina.
