Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

Endurance (7/10): A standard SkiErg distance testing aerobic endurance, cardiovascular fitness, pacing, and mental fortitude on this specific machine.

Stamina (7/10): Requires substantial upper body, core, and leg muscular endurance to maintain a consistent and strong stroke for the entire 1000 meters.

Speed (6/10): Maintaining an efficient stroke rate and consistent pace (split time) is crucial for achieving a good 1000m SkiErg time. Pacing strategy is very important.

Power (5/10): Consistent power application per stroke over time is key, rather than maximal explosive power. Tests the ability to sustain a moderate power output.

Strength (2/10): Minimal maximal strength required. Focus is on efficient SkiErg technique and endurance of the muscles involved in the pull.

Flexibility (2/10): Basic SkiErg mechanics require adequate shoulder, thoracic, and hip mobility for an efficient pull over a longer distance.
