Points to note

  • There are no weight carry exercises (Farmers Walk) . This is due to the safety protocols of your own gym. This part of the test must be conducted under your own training regime.
  • In some cases there are a high number of Bench Jumps and Sit Ups - You are conducting a training session based on the event you are entering and this cannot be avoided. Take caution in the level of athlete that you are and train sensibly.
  • Weights are only mentioned as male - female weights will be proportionate to the test you are doing, in either Advanced or Intermediate. The correct weights will be in your folders.
  • The Challenges can be found in your Gym X Training Folders in World Gym Challenge.com. You will need to log in to see them (date to be announced when complete)
  • This is not a complete training guide, only a Series of tests that will help you in your own training plan.
  • Bike timings when mentioned in the training program, will vary. If possible use the WattBike, but if not go for your own model and accept that on the day performance will vary.
  • You can if you wish take part in Advanced or Intermediate
