“Existential Burden” is a midline-focused EMOM combining jump rope coordination, aerobic bodyweight conditioning, core endurance, and isometric strength. The design challenges athletes to stay consistent under fatigue while balancing dynamic movement with static holds. The key is smooth execution, controlled breathing, and smart pacing, especially in the max plank hold.
Goal: Consistent completion of work across all four active minutes
Score: Total time spent in forearm plank
