Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Power (8/10): This WOD is designed to test power output. Fast, explosive front squats and maximal effort on the bike for calories are key. The rest periods allow for repeated high power efforts.
- Speed (7/10): Maximizing speed on both front squats and bike calories within each set is crucial. Utilizing the rest effectively to maintain high output is important.
- Endurance (6/10): Three descending rep couplets (15-10-5) of front squats (95/65 lb) and calorie bike, with 90 seconds rest after each set. This interval format tests power output and recovery, creating a significant anaerobic challenge.
- Stamina (5/10): Cycling front squats and bike calories in short, intense bursts tests leg and cardiovascular stamina. The rest allows for partial recovery before the next effort.
- Strength (4/10): Front squats at 95/65 lbs are a light-moderate load, focusing on speed and cycling efficiency rather than maximal strength. Biking power comes from leg drive.
- Flexibility (3/10): Requires good front rack and squat mobility for front squats. Basic biking mechanics.
