This workout is for time with at 15:00 cap. Athletes may divide reps anyway. At the call of 3, 2, 1 go... one athlete will begin on the deadlifts. Two bars will be pre-set (one for each athlete). Only one athlete may work at a time. Once the deadlifts are complete the athletes will move to the gymnastics movement.

Athletes will continue to progress until the workout is completed or the time cap is reached.

Movements standards

Ring Rows

TRX Straps will be set up on the rig. To begin the rep, arms start at full-extension with both feet on the tape line directly under the connection point on the rig. Pull yourself up until your chest touches the rings. Extend your arms and return to the starting position.

Jumping Pull-Ups

The bar should be at least six inches above the top of the head when standing tall. Plates or other stable platforms may be required to decrease the distance between the top of the head and the bar. At the start of each rep, lower until the arms are fully extended. The rep is credited when the chest clearly comes into contact with the bar at or below the collarbone. Wrapping tape around the pull-up bar or wearing hand protection (gymnastics-style grips, gloves, etc.) is permitted, but taping the bar AND wearing hand protection is not.

Pull-Up

At the start of each rep, arms must be fully extended, with feet off the ground. Any style of pull-up or grip is permitted as long as the requirements are met. The rep is credited when the chin breaks the horizontal plane of the bar. Wrapping tape around the pull-up bar or wearing hand protection (gymnastics-style grips, gloves, etc.) is permitted, but taping the bar AND wearing hand protection is not.

Chest to Bar

At the start of each rep, arms must be fully extended, with feet off the ground. Any style of pull-up or grip is permitted as long as the requirements are met. The rep is credited when the chest clearly comes into contact with the bar at or below the collarbone. Wrapping tape around the pull-up bar or wearing hand protection (gymnastics-style grips, gloves, etc.) is permitted, but taping the bar AND wearing hand protection is not.

Bar Muscle Ups

The athlete must begin with or pass through a hang below the bar, with the arms fully extended and the feet off the ground. Kipping the muscle-up is acceptable, but pull-overs, rolls to support and glide kips are not permitted. No portion of the foot may rise above the height of the bar during the kip.The rep is credited when the arms are fully locked out while the athlete is in the support position above the bar with the shoulders over or in front of the bar. Athletes must pass through some portion of a dip-to-lockout over the bar. Only the hands and no other part of the arm may touch the pull-up bar to assist the athlete in completing the rep. Once on top, the hands must stay in contact with the bar, and athletes must maintain support with their arms. Removing the hands and resting while on top of the bar is not allowed. Athletes may wrap tape around the pull-up bar or wear hand protection (gymnastics-style grips, gloves, etc.), but they may not tape the bar and wear hand protection.

Ring Muscle Ups

Begin hanging from the rings, with arms fully extended and feet off the ground. If performing consecutive kipping muscle-ups, a change of direction below the rings is required. The rep is credited when the elbows are fully locked out in the support position. Must pass through some portion of a dip before reaching lockout. Kipping is allowed, but swings or rolls to support are not permitted. No part of the foot may rise above the rings during the kip.

Workout Flow:

This workout will be on a 16:00 running clock. Athlete one will start standing on the ski erg. At the call of 3, 2, 1 go, athlete 1 will complete their calories and then proceed to complete their wall walks or handstand walk. Once the wall walks or handstand walks are completed, athlete b will go on to complete their calories and wall walks or handstand walks. Athlete b may not start the ski until they receive confirmation from their judge. Once six total rounds are completed, athletes will move on to Part B. If Part A is not completed by the 10:00 mark, score will be total reps and athletes must move on to Part B. For Part B, two bars will already be set up in the rack. Athletes can help each other load weights, but only one athlete may lift at a time. In order for the lift to count, the bar must be unracked when time expires.

Movement Standards:

Ski Erg (all divisions): Judge will reset monitors after each round. Athletes will not begin the ski until they receive confirmation from their judge. 

Partial Wall Walk (scaled): Every rep begins and ends with the athlete lying down, with their chest, feet, and thighs touching the ground. At the start and finish of each rep, both hands must be in front of the tape line - no part of the hand may be touching the line. 

Both hands must remain in front of the tape until both feet are on the wall. The athlete will walk up the wall until both hands are on the other side of the tape line - no part of the hand may be touching the tape line. 

On the descent, the feet must remain on the wall until both hands are in front of the tape line, with no part of the hand touching the line. The rep is credited when the athlete returns to the starting position, with hands in front of the line and chest, thighs, and feet touching the ground. 

Wall Walk (intermediate): Every rep begins and ends with the athlete lying down, with their chest, feet, and thighs touching the ground. At the start and finish of each rep, both hands must touch the tape line furthest from the wall (fingertips is ok). Both hands must remain on the tape line until both feet are on the wall. At the top of the movement, both hands must touch the tape line closest to the wall before the athlete can descend. Both hands must be touching the line at the same time (tap and go is ok). 

On the descent, both hands must be touching the line furthest from the wall before the feet can come off of the wall. The rep is credited when the athlete returns to the starting position, with both hands touching the line and their chest, thighs, and feet touching the ground. Any part of the hand may make contact with the tape line.

Handstand Walk (Rx): Kick up with both hands behind the line of the 5' segment being attempted. Stepping over the line or landing with the hands on or over the line is a "no rep".

Athletes must walk forward.

Coming down from the hands at any time requires a restart from behind the line last successfully crossed. 

A rep is credited when both hands, including palms and fingers, cross the line before the feet touch the ground. 

Each 5 foot section will count as 1 rep. Athletes must handstand walk across the line. Jumping both hands over the line to finish a section is not allowed.

Movement Standards:

Overhead Squat (all divisions): Collars must be placed outside the plates during all attempts. Athletes MUST declare the load they are attempting to their judge before starting the lift. 

Squat racks are permitted.

Athletes may place the bar in the front or back rack and jerk the bar overhead before starting the descent of the lift. 

Athletes may NOT unrack the bar in the overhead position. 

A snatch balance is not permitted. 

Once the bar is in the overhead position, the athlete's hip crease must pass below the tops of their knees at the bottom. The barbell must remain overhead until the lockout position is achieved. The rep is credited when the athlete's hips, knees, and arms are fully extended and the bar is directly over or slightly behind the middle of the body.

If any part of the athlete's body other than their hands makes contact with the bar, the rep will not count. 

In a situation where an athlete is making an attempt at the end of the workout, the bar must be unracked before the 16:00 mark for the rep to count.
