Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Stamina (9/10): Totaling 5km rowing, 1km farmer carry, and 500m total waiter walk (250m each arm). This will exhaust full-body rowing stamina, and severely tax grip, core, and shoulder stabilizing stamina from the prolonged, heavy carries.
  • Endurance (8/10): Five rounds for time of a 1000m row, 200m farmer carry (2x45/35lb DBs), 50m right-arm waiter walk (45/35lb DB), and 50m left-arm waiter walk. The long rows combined with significant loaded carries make this a very demanding test of cardiovascular and grip/core/shoulder endurance.
  • Strength (7/10): Farmer carry with 2x45/35 lbs and waiter walk with a single 45/35 lb dumbbell are significant tests of carrying strength, grip strength, and unilateral shoulder/core stability, especially over these distances and for 5 rounds. Rowing involves leg drive strength.
  • Power (4/10): Rowing for speed involves power per stroke. The carries are more about sustained strength and stability rather than explosive power.
  • Speed (4/10): Maintaining a strong, consistent rowing pace and moving as quickly as possible on the heavy carries without compromising form or grip is crucial. Pacing for 5 long rounds is key.
  • Flexibility (3/10): Requires basic rowing mechanics. Maintaining good posture and shoulder stability during heavy carries.
