Why This Workout Is Medium
A 20-minute AMRAP combining the classic Cindy triplet with rowing. Tests bodyweight endurance and cardiovascular capacity.
Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Endurance (7/10): A 20-minute AMRAP combining a round of 'Cindy' (5 pull-ups, 10 push-ups, 15 squats) with a 20 calorie row. This tests sustained cardiovascular output and muscular endurance across bodyweight gymnastics and monostructural cardio.
- Stamina (7/10): Cycling through pull-ups (pulling/grip stamina), push-ups (pushing stamina), squats (leg stamina), and rowing (full-body stamina) for 20 minutes tests the ability to maintain consistent output across varied demands.
- Speed (6/10): Efficient cycling of all 'Cindy' movements and maintaining a strong, consistent rowing pace with quick transitions is crucial for maximizing rounds.
- Power (4/10): Rowing for calories demands power per stroke. Kipping pull-ups can have a power component. The WOD emphasizes consistent effort over peak power.
- Strength (3/10): Primarily a test of relative bodyweight strength endurance for the 'Cindy' components. Rowing involves leg drive strength endurance.
- Flexibility (2/10): Requires basic mobility for pull-ups, push-ups, squats, and rowing.
Modality Profile
A G/M workout combining the gymnastics of 'Cindy' (Pull-ups, Push-ups, Squats) with a monostructural component (Row).
