Workout Description

Establish 1RM thruster

Why This Workout Is Hard

Open WOD (For Load). Establish 1RM thruster after 23.2A. Tests maximal strength under fatigue.

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Power (10/10): The thruster is a quintessential full-body power movement. This tests the ability to generate that power under fatigue.
  • Strength (9/10): This is a direct test of maximal strength in the thruster, made more challenging by the preceding AMRAP. Score is the heaviest successful lift.
  • Flexibility (6/10): Excellent mobility is required for an efficient thruster at maximal loads (full squat, front rack, overhead position).
  • Speed (5/10): Speed in the dip/drive and under the bar (if cleaning from ground first) is critical for successful maximal attempts, especially when fatigued.
  • Stamina (3/10): Requires strength-stamina to execute maximal lifts after prior exertion. Focus is on single explosive efforts for this specific part.
  • Endurance (2/10): Establish 1RM thruster in 5 minutes immediately after 23.2A. Cardiovascular demand is low for this part, but pre-fatigue from 23.2A (burpee pull-ups, shuttle runs) is significant.

Modality Profile

A pure weightlifting workout, focused on finding a 1-rep max Thruster.
