Black Adam

For Reps

Four 2-minute sprint AMRAPs with 2-minute rest between sets. Complete wall walks and burpee box jump overs, then max rope climbs with remaining time.

4 Sets: 2:00 AMRAP, Rest 2:00 between sets. Score = Sum Total Reps (All Combined Reps)

Rx
Each 2:00 AMRAP
  1. 3 Wall Walks
    to 10in from wall
  2. 10 Burpee Box Jump Overs
  3. Max Rope Climbs
Level 2
Each 2:00 AMRAP
  1. 3 Wall Walks
    to 20in from wall
  2. 10 Burpee Box Jump Overs
  3. Max Rope Climbs
Level 1
Each 2:00 AMRAP
  1. 3 Wall Walks or Box Pike Wall Walk
    to 30in from wall
  2. 10 Burpee Step-Overs
  3. Max Ring Rows
Big Class Option
Start 5 heats with groups going on the 0:00, :45, 1:30, 2:15, and 3:00 with group 1 starting back around on the 4:00 minute mark. This allows for minimal congestion on the rope. Alternatively, substitute Ring Rows (body parallel to floor) for rope climbs.

  • 20 Renegade Rows, For Load (Anti-Rotation)
  • :30/:30 Side Plank
  • 20 Hollow Rocks
Goal: 3-5 rope climbs per set / 12-18 total RPE: 9/10 Stimulus: Gymnastics Skill / Upper Body Pulling Power / Sprint Intervals

Primary: Move through the Wall Walks and Burpee Box Jump Overs fast enough to get meaningful time on the rope. Efficiency in the first two movements is everything — slow transitions = fewer climbs.

Secondary: Approach the rope with urgency, not desperation. A fatigued, sloppy rope climb is slower and more dangerous than a quick reset breath and a sharp climb. Get to the rope, breathe for one second, then go.

Strategy

"Black Adam" is a sprint format built around one question: how fast can you clear the work to earn time on the rope? Wall Walks should be fast but controlled. Athletes should be able to clear the 3 wall walks in 20-40 seconds. Burpee Box Jump Overs need to be rhythmic and aggressive. Look to maintain a clean consistent and efficient pace here to earn valuable time on the ropes. The goal is to arrive at the rope with 30-50 seconds remaining per set. One quality rope climb takes 8-12 seconds for most athletes ... that means 3-5 rope climbs is the goal. Use the 2:00 rest to fully recover your grip and your breathing. This is meant to be a real rest and reset going into the next set to tackle with the same intensity.

Modifications

Wall Walks: Shorten the distance, move to box pike wall walks, or inchworm push-ups. Burpee Box Jump Overs: Burpee Step-Overs (same box height) for athletes unable to safely jump. Rope Climbs: Half Rope Climbs or Pull to Stands, Strict Ring Rows (feet elevated) for athletes without rope access or upper body pulling capacity.

If we are looking at the workout right, we are thinking that the Wall Walks and the Burpee Box Jump Overs will take roughly around the 1:10-1:30 mark for most athletes allowing for :30-:50 sec on the rope. We also have allotted a 2:00 rest time which will allow for 4:00 total minutes of time to work with and stagger athletes. The suggestion here is to start 5 heats with groups going on the 0:00, :0:45, 1:30, 2:15, and 3:00 with group 1 starting back around on the 4:00 minute mark. This will allow for minimal congestion on the rope and for the workout to be completed within the given time frame. *Alternatively we can sub Ring Rows (Body @ parallel to the floor) as a great alternative to rope climbs today. Admittedly almost had this as a ring row day to really lean into the strict pull-up strength development.
