Thank you for the opportunity and we hope to see as many of the adaptive athletes' community join.

Athlete Divisions:
Video evidence may be requested from top athletes.
Athletes can form teams. Teams can form teams of two. The team format will be of the same gender.
This competition is scored individually, according to gender.
Concept2 (PM5) Indoor Rowers must be used according to the WODPROOF app’s instructions. Competitors may use the damper setting of their choice.
Leaderboard and Scoring Validation:
Once the score submission period has closed, no workout scores may be entered. There will be no exceptions.
Individual athletes will be ranked in each event. Scoring will be based on an athlete’s relative rank, that is their rank when compared to the performance of other athletes.
Ties will not be broken for single event results. More than one athlete can share an event ranking, and each will earn the original point value. The athlete with the top score across multiple events in a category wins that category.
These points will be used to rank the athletes and teams on the leaderboard. Ties on the overall leaderboard will be broken by awarding the best position to the athlete who has the highest result in any single event. If athletes remain tied after this first tiebreaker, the process continues to their next highest single result, and so forth.
The competition will only count full second results. Tenth of a second results will not count for the sake of the competition.
For example, a time of 1:29.5 - 1:29.9 will be listed on the leaderboard as 1:30.
a time of 1:29.0 - 1:29.4 will be listed on the leaderboard as 1:29

You can watch the most impressive performance from 2020 here: video
RX:
In 1 min window, complete 25(M)/20(F) calories until failure.
If you completed 25(M)/20(F) calories before the 1:00 mark, your excess calories count towards your next minute. So on until you can't average 25(M)/20(F) per minute.
For example: on minute 4, if your total is at least 100(M)/80(F) you earn an extra minute of work, to complete more 25(M)/20(F) calories and so on.
Your score is the total calories accumulated at the end of the last minute you rowed.
If you are superman and you didn't fail in 29 minutes, STOP after 30 minutes and submit the total calories accumulated on the 30:00 mark.
The last min is for all out!!!
RX Adaptive:
In 1 min window, complete 15(M)/10(F) calories until failure.
If you completed 15(M)/10(F) calories before the 1:00 mark, your excess calories count towards your next minute. So on until you can't average 15(M)/10(F) per minute.
For example: on minute 4, if your total is at least 60(M)/40(F) you earn an extra minute of work, to complete more 15(M)/10(F) calories and so on.
Your score is the total calories accumulated at the end of the last minute you rowed.
If you are superman and you didn't fail in 19 minutes, STOP after 20 minutes and submit the total calories accumulated on the 20:00 mark.
The last min is for all out, and if 15/10 calories per min were easy for you? Then surprise everyone with a crazy total calories score!
