Deadlift

This is a traditional deadlift with the hands outside the knees. Sumo deadlifts are not allowed. Starting at the floor, the barbell is lifted until hips and knees reach full extension with the shoulders behind the bar. The arms must be straight throughout. Deliberate bouncing of the barbell is not allowed. Dropping the barbell after the completion of the repetition is permitted. Hitching is permitted, as long as full extension of the knees and hips is eventually reached.

Chest to bar pull-up

Dead hang, kipping or butterfly pull-ups are allowed, as long as all the requirements are met. The arms must be fully extended at the bottom. At the top, the chest (below clavicle) must make contact with the bar.

 Pull-up

This is a standard pull-up. Dead hang, kipping or butterfly pull-ups are allowed, as long as all the requirements are met. The arms must be fully extended at the bottom. At the top, the chin must break the horizontal plane of the bar.

During competition you may push yourself harder than you would in training, and the rig may be a different surface to what you are used to, as such hand tears can be common. It is fine to wear gloves or other hand protection – however you may not tape or adjust the rig in any other way.

A clean of the first repetition from the ground is permitted providing the hip crease passes below the plane of the knee. Bars must be under control at all times.

If an athlete drops the kettlebell before it has settled on the ground, the last repetition will not count.

Each rep begins with the KB on the shoulder or in the front rack position and finishes with the hips, knees and working arm fully extended, and the kettlebell directly over the middle of the body. A shoulder press, push press, push jerk or split jerk may be used, as long as the elbow, shoulder, hips and knees are fully extended, and the KB finishes directly over the body with the feet in line.
