A max-effort thruster ladder with increasing weight and short work/rest windows. Tests maximal strength and power endurance.
Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
Strength (9/10): This is a direct test of maximal thruster strength. The score is the heaviest load successfully lifted. Weights progress to very heavy for both men and women.
Power (9/10): The thruster is a quintessential Olympic lifting hybrid that demands high power output from the entire body. This ladder tests the ability to generate that power with increasing loads.
Stamina (6/10): Requires significant strength-stamina to perform thrusters at progressively heavier loads with very short work/rest windows. Legs, shoulders, and core will be heavily taxed.
Flexibility (6/10): Excellent front rack, squat, and overhead mobility is crucial for performing heavy thrusters safely and efficiently as weight increases.
Speed (5/10): While not a race against a clock for total time, the 20-second window per lift demands a quick and decisive effort. Bar speed on successful lifts is an indicator of power.
Endurance (4/10): A thruster ladder with increasing weight (Men: 155lb up to 295lb; Women: 105lb up to 185lb), 20s per lift, 10s transition. Minimal cardiovascular endurance demand, focused on maximal strength and power endurance for the thruster.
Modality Profile
A triplet with two gymnastics movements (Pistols, Handstand Push-ups) and one weightlifting movement (Hang Cleans). Gymnastics dominant.
