Training Focus
This workout develops the following fitness attributes:
- Stamina (9/10): High volume of T2B (60 total) will exhaust grip and core stamina. Heavy kettlebell lunges (2x70/53 lb) for 60 total yards will severely test leg, glute, and core stabilizing stamina.
- Strength (8/10): Kettlebell lunges with two 70/53 lb kettlebells represent a very heavy unilateral load, demanding significant leg and core strength. Toes-to-bars require substantial core and grip strength.
- Endurance (7/10): A 30-20-10 rep scheme for time of toes-to-bars and heavy kettlebell lunges (2x32/24kg, distance in yards). This couplet creates a significant metabolic challenge, testing core/grip endurance and heavy loaded unilateral leg strength.
- Power (6/10): While primarily strength/stamina, driving up from the lunge with heavy KBs requires power. Kipping T2B also has a power component.
- Speed (6/10): Fast cycling of T2B and quick, controlled lunges are important for a good time, but managing the heavy load and grip fatigue is paramount.
- Flexibility (5/10): Requires good hamstring and hip flexor mobility for T2B, and hip/ankle mobility for deep lunges under heavy load.
Modality Profile
