Benchmark Notes

400M walking lunges for time analysis: Walking lunges are typically 36-40 inches per rep, so 400M (1312 feet) requires approximately 393-437 lunges. Using 415 lunges average. Fresh walking lunge pace: 1.5-2 sec per rep. However, this high volume creates significant fatigue patterns: Reps 1-100: 1.5 sec/rep (150 sec), Reps 101-200: 1.8 sec/rep + 15 sec rest (195 sec), Reps 201-300: 2.2 sec/rep + 30 sec rest (250 sec), Reps 301-415: 2.8 sec/rep + 45 sec rest (367 sec). Total base time: 962 seconds. Adding movement degradation due to quad/glute fatigue (+15%), balance challenges on single leg (+10%), and mental fatigue in final 100 reps (+8%): 962 × 1.33 = 1280 seconds for elite level. Distribution across levels accounts for conditioning differences, with recreational athletes taking 2.5-3x longer due to more frequent rest breaks and slower pace.
