Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Speed (7/10): Tests the ability to maintain a fast SkiErg pace over a challenging middle distance. Pacing strategy is important.
- Endurance (6/10): A challenging middle-distance SkiErg effort that tests both anaerobic and aerobic capacity. Requires strong cardiovascular fitness and pacing strategy for this specific machine.
- Stamina (6/10): Demands considerable upper body, core, and leg muscular endurance to maintain a strong pace and stroke rate for the duration. Mental toughness is also a factor.
- Power (6/10): Maintaining a high average power output per stroke is crucial for a fast 750m time. Tests sustained power rather than peak power.
- Strength (2/10): While not a maximal strength test, good pulling strength endurance contributes to maintaining power per stroke.
- Flexibility (2/10): Basic SkiErg mechanics require adequate shoulder, thoracic, and hip mobility for an efficient pull over this distance.
