  • Intermediate: 11:01-10:01
  • Beginner: >10:01

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (8/10): Totaling 45 parallel bar dips and 6 rope climbs (assuming 1 rope climb per 'rep' in the 21-15-9 scheme, which is unusual but implied if not specified as total feet). This will severely tax pushing stamina (dips) and upper body pulling/grip stamina (rope climbs). If it's 21-15-9 actual rope climbs, stamina is 1.0.
  • Strength (7/10): Parallel bar dips require good relative pressing strength. Rope climbs demand significant upper body pulling strength and technique. This WOD has a strong strength endurance component.
  • Endurance (6/10): For time (11-min cap): 21-15-9 reps of parallel bar dips and 15ft rope climbs. This couplet tests upper body pushing and pulling endurance with two challenging gymnastics movements.
  • Speed (6/10): Efficient cycling of dips and quick, successful rope climbs are crucial for a good time. Minimizing rest and managing transitions effectively is important.
  • Power (5/10): Explosive pulls on rope climbs utilize power. Dips can be performed with some power. Maintaining output through the descending reps is key.
  • Flexibility (4/10): Requires good shoulder extension for dips. Hip/shoulder mobility for efficient rope climbs.

Modality Profile

A pure gymnastics couplet. Both Parallel Bar Dips and Rope Climbs are bodyweight movements testing upper body strength and endurance.
