Benchmark Notes

This is a high-volume gymnastics workout with significant fatigue accumulation. Base times per round: 700m Run = 3:00-3:30, Bar Muscle Ups (5) = 15-25 sec, Chest-to-Bar (10) = 15-25 sec, Pull Ups (15) = 15-30 sec, Handstand Push Ups (5) = 25-60 sec, Ring Dips (10) = 15-30 sec, Push Ups (15) = 15-25 sec. Round 1 fresh: ~4:45-5:30. Applied fatigue multipliers: Round 2 = 1.1x, Round 3 = 1.2x, Round 4 = 1.3x, Round 5 = 1.4x. Added grip fatigue penalty of 20-30% after round 2 due to consecutive pulling movements. Transitions between movements: 3-8 seconds per transition (6 per round). Total estimated times: Elite 7:20, Advanced 9:10, Intermediate 12:20, Recreational 16:00+
