Focus & Benefits
Challenges full-body strength endurance through repeated swinging, cleaning, pressing, snatching and floor-based work. The fixed 18-rep rounds make the total easy to track, while the bodyweight and core blocks add cardiovascular and trunk demands after the main challenge.
Pro Tip: The target is 108 quality reps, not 108 desperate reps. Take the rest you need between rounds so the technique-intensive movements stay sharp.
