Welcome to Power Hour!
4 Teammates - 12 Workouts - 1 Hour
October 23 & 24, 2026
What is Power Hour?
Power Hour is a competition that involves 12 workouts split amongst a team of 4 (2 females and 2 males), all done in 1 hour.
What to expect:
RX, Scaled & 55+ Divisions
Workouts can be any length between 30 seconds and 14 minutes.
Most teams do not complete all 12 workouts, is your team up for the challenge?
The whole competition in 1 hour?
Yup! This whole competition is 60 minutes. Each team will have 1 hour to complete as many of the 12 workouts as possible. Workouts can be done in any order except for the strength events which must be done first. We will have 9 heats with 3 teams in each heat. Three heats on Friday (3:30pm, 5pm, 6:30pm) and six heats on Saturday (7am, 8:30am, 10am, 11:30am, 1pm, 2:30pm).
Workouts are designed to take 3-8 minutes and the team shares the load so no 1 person will be doing all 12 workouts.
Friday’s Schedule:
Heat 1: 3:30pm-4:30pm
Heat 2: 5:00pm-6:00pm
Heat 3: 6:30pm-7:30pm
Saturday’s Schedule:
Heat 4: 7:00am-8:00am
Heat 5: 8:30am-9:30am
Heat 6: 10:00am-11:00am
Heat 7: 11:30am-12:30pm
Heat 8: 1:00pm-2:00pm
Heat 9: 2:30pm-3:30pm
RX, SCALED & 55+ Division
In years past, we had only one leaderboard. This year we will have 3. Entering the RX division, means all workouts must be completed using the RX weights and movements. The same is true for the Scaled & 55+ divisions - all workouts must be completed at that level.
Each workout is scored based on the finishing place of the team in that workout, and the best overall score at the end wins.
For the 55+ division, all team members must be at least 55+.
Workouts get released August 26th.
Strategy & Fitness
It doesn’t get more strategic than this: balancing your teams strengths across all 12 workouts, deciding which workouts happen first, which teammate tackles what, and how much each person can handle without burning out. Then there’s how you’ll split the reps, transition smoothly, and communicate when someone needs a break, all against a non-stop 60 minute clock.
Needless to say, the fittest team doesn’t always win.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can we do workouts simultaneously?
No, only 1 workout can be done at a time and any teammates not involved in the workout must stand behind the rower.
Can we do the workouts in any order?
The 4 individual strength workouts must be completed first (in any order). Then the remaining 8 workouts can be completed in any order.
Are we able to warm-up before the clock starts?
Absolutely, we encourage you to come in 30-60 minutes before your heat time to warm-up and plan for your heat.
Can a workout be completed by some members of my team as RX while other members do scaled?
No, the whole team must either choose to do the entire competition as RX or Scaled.
How is this going to be scored?
Each workout your team does will be scored from 1st to last place. 1st place gives 1 point and last place gives the total amount of teams we have in points. So if we have 11 teams and your team gets last, that is 11 points. If your team doesn’t start a workout, it is automatically given last place. If only 4 teams do a workout, then those 4 teams would get a score of 1-4 and the rest of the teams would be given last place points, i.e. 11 points in our example
