Workout Description
Maximum number of consecutive kipping pull-ups.
Why This Workout Is Medium
Tests pulling endurance and efficiency using a kip.
Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Stamina (8/10): Tests upper body pulling stamina and grip endurance. The kip allows for more reps than strict by utilizing momentum, but still demands muscular endurance to sustain.
- Power (5/10): The kip itself is an explosive, coordinated movement generating power from the hips and core to assist the pull. This tests the ability to generate this power repeatedly.
- Speed (5/10): Efficient and rhythmic kipping allows for faster cycling of reps, contributing to a higher max rep count. Consistency of the kip is key.
- Endurance (3/10): Moderate cardiovascular demand if performing many reps quickly. Primarily tests localized muscular endurance and skill efficiency.
- Strength (3/10): Requires a baseline of pulling strength, but the kip reduces the maximal strength demand per rep compared to strict pull-ups. Focus is on endurance of this less strength-intensive pattern.
- Flexibility (3/10): Good shoulder and thoracic mobility allows for a more efficient and powerful kip.
