Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Stamina (9/10): Performing 120 wall balls will severely tax leg and shoulder stamina. Immediately transitioning to a 120 calorie row will demand exceptional full-body rowing stamina while already highly fatigued.
- Endurance (8/10): For time (15-min cap): 120 Wall Ball Shots (20/14 lb), then 120 calorie Row. This is a brutal couplet testing high-volume conditioning on wall balls followed immediately by a high-volume row. Pure cardiovascular and muscular endurance test.
- Power (6/10): Wall balls (squat and throw) are an explosive movement. Rowing for calories demands consistent power output per stroke. The WOD tests sustained power-endurance under extreme fatigue.
- Speed (6/10): Efficient cycling of wall balls and maintaining a strong, consistent rowing pace are crucial. Pacing the wall balls to have enough for the row is key.
- Strength (3/10): Wall balls are a light-moderate load, focusing on endurance. Rowing power comes from leg drive and pull, emphasizing strength endurance over maximal strength.
- Flexibility (2/10): Requires full squat depth for wall balls. Basic rowing mechanics.
