Why This Workout Is Hard

Eight separate Tabata intervals covering various barbell, gymnastics, kettlebell, and cardio movements. Tests broad fitness in short bursts. Score is total reps.

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Endurance (8/10): Eight separate Tabata intervals (20s work, 10s rest, 8 rounds each) covering Thrusters (95lb), Pull-Ups, Cleans (135lb), Ring Dips, Deadlifts (200lb), HSPU, KB Swings (1.5 pood), and Row (calories), with 1 min rest between Tabatas. This is a long (39 mins total) and comprehensive test of anaerobic capacity and recovery across a wide range of movements and loads.
  • Stamina (8/10): Each Tabata interval tests the ability to sustain high output and resist fatigue for a specific movement. Cumulatively, this tests broad muscular stamina across pushing, pulling, lifting, gymnastics, and rowing.
  • Power (7/10): Tabata intervals demand high power output during the 20-second work periods to maximize reps/calories. Many of the chosen movements are inherently powerful.
  • Speed (7/10): High turnover of reps within each 20-second window is crucial for scoring well in each Tabata. Efficient transitions are not a factor due to programmed rest.
  • Strength (6/10): Loads are moderate to heavy for Tabata context (e.g., DL 200lb, Cleans 135lb, Thrusters 95lb). Gymnastics (Pull-Ups, Ring Dips, HSPU) test relative strength. The challenge is maintaining strength output in short, intense bursts repeatedly.
  • Flexibility (4/10): Requires mobility for a wide range of movements including thrusters, cleans, deadlifts, pull-ups, ring dips, HSPU, KB swings, and rowing.

Modality Profile

A couplet of a monostructural movement (Run) and a gymnastics movement (Burpee). The structure ensures an even split between the two modalities.
