Liebe MoD-Community
Dieses Jahr findet kein Master of Disaster statt. Nach all den intensiven und unvergesslichen Jahren gönnen wir uns als Team eine kurze Pause. Zwischen Nachwuchs, Verletzungen und einer grossen Portion Arbeit war in letzter Zeit wirklich alles dabei.
Aber keine Sorge: Die Pause ist nur vorübergehend.
Wir sind zurück – am 27. November 2027.
Wir hoffen, ihr überlebt ein Jahr ohne uns 😉 und seid dann 2027 wieder voll am Start, wenn es wieder heisst: Master of Disaster!
Bis dahin: bleibt fit, bleibt hungrig und bleibt Teil der Community.
Euer MoD Team

Dear MoD Community
There will be no Master of Disaster this year. After many intense and unforgettable years, we’ve decided to take a short break as a team. Between new family members, injuries, and a lot of hard work – the past years have truly had it all.
But don’t worry: this is only a short break.
We’ll be back on November 27, 2027.
We hope you’ll survive one year without us 😉 and be ready to go all in again in 2027 when Master of Disaster returns!
Until then: stay fit, stay hungry, and stay part of the community.
Your MoD Team

Workout 3 is pure chaos for legs, lungs and grip. 🔥
Sync front squats, wall walks and then straight into rope climbs with the clock and your heart rate racing against each other. Quads screaming, shoulders on fire and no space for lazy reps – every pull has to count.
Then it’s time for the Bella Complex: clean it, drive it, squat it, send it overhead again. Heavy bar, bright lights, shaky legs and full trust in your technique. This is the point in the day where Masters stop surviving and start putting on a show. 💪

Workout 2 – Acid Bath 🧪🔥
Short, sharp and absolutely disgusting in the best way. For time, 12:00 timecap:
Female and male athletes alternate through:
250/200 Row
500/400 Standing BikeErg
6 Shuttle runs (12 x 7 m)
While one athlete works, the partner waits on the start mat – and then it’s their turn to dive into the pain cave.
A true highlight? Those first funny steps after the BikeErg, when legs are full of acid but the shuttle runs are still waiting. Jelly legs, burning lungs and zero hiding – this is where Masters show how deep they can go. 💪

Sometimes the biggest saves happen off the competition floor. 🎙️🔥
Yesterday evening we were standing in the venue with one big problem: no speaker. Our original speaker had to cancel last minute for health reasons – and the hall suddenly felt very, very quiet.
Enter .gets.stronger
She jumped in on ultra-short notice, grabbed the mic and absolutely saved our asses. From athlete briefings to hype on the main floor, she kept the energy high and the day running smooth.
Emily, thank you for saying yes so fast and for carrying the show with your voice. This edition of Master of Disaster doesn’t happen like this without you. 💛

Not every battle happens on the main floor – meet our side event: The Hybrid Athlete. 🔥
Here our athletes are tested in three categories, with 2:00 at each station:
Max strength: sandbag over bar for max weight
Grip endurance: max-time deadhang on FatGripz
Explosive power: broad jump for max distance
Running next to the main floor, this side event is a welcome change of pace from the heavy workouts – but it still shows who’s truly a hybrid athlete. 💪

Early mornings, heavy lifts and max effort need one thing first: good coffee. ☕🔥
When the first athletes arrive, is already on. From a smooth cappuccino to a sharp espresso or a long lungo – they make sure you’ve got the fuel to switch on, stay focused and keep pushing all day long.
Huge shoutout to for keeping athletes, crew and judges awake and ready to throw down from the first heat to the final buzzer. 💪

Workout 1 is on and our athletes are all in. 🔥
AMRAP 15:00
36-24-12
Sync alternating DB snatches
Toes to bar to share
Sync box jump overs (60/50 cm, 100+ may step on the box)
…straight into:
6 Sync single-arm DB thrusters
6 Bar muscle-ups to share
6 Sync burpee box jump overs
Hearts racing, grips burning and no place to hide – who will make it to the bar muscle-ups, and who can hold the pace once the second part kicks in? This is where Masters prove they can still move. 💪

Turn up the volume, turn up the chaos. 🎧🔥
Our DJ makes all the difference on game day – from heavy hip hop beats to driving techno vibes and guilty-pleasure chart bangers from the past, he brings it all. The music drops, the barbell flies and suddenly that next rep feels just a little bit lighter.
Here’s to the soundtrack of Master of Disaster – keeping the energy high from the first check-in to the final buzzer. 💥
