Workout Description
Maximum number of consecutive ring dips.
Why This Workout Is Medium
Tests pressing strength and stability on an unstable surface.
Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Stamina (7/10): A significant test of upper body pushing stamina (chest, shoulders, triceps) and stabilizing muscle endurance due to the instability of the rings.
- Strength (6/10): Requires considerable relative upper body pressing strength and stability to control movement on the rings. Max reps tests the endurance of this strength.
- Flexibility (4/10): Good shoulder extension and internal rotation mobility is important for achieving full depth and maintaining stability in the dip on rings.
- Speed (4/10): Cycling reps efficiently while maintaining control on the unstable rings is key. Not about maximal speed per rep, but sustained controlled effort.
- Endurance (3/10): Moderate cardiovascular demand if performing many reps quickly. Primarily tests localized muscular endurance under unstable conditions.
- Power (3/10): If kipping is allowed (though 'ring dips' usually implies a more controlled movement unless specified), then a powerful kip contributes. Otherwise, focus is on controlled pressing strength endurance.
Modality Profile
A pure gymnastics workout, focused on max reps of a single movement.
