RAINHILL ONLINE - THE FINAL
About This Competition
RAINHILL ONLINE - powered by NOCCO UK
// The event
The competition will take place over the week Monday 19th October to Saturday 24th October, and will consist of five separate workouts (each workout may contain more than one scoring opportunity)
One workout will be released at 8am each day Monday to Friday, first workout released 8am on Monday 19th October.
Athletes have until midnight the following day to complete the workout and submit their scores. E.g. submissions for WOD 1 close at 11.59pm on Tuesday 20th October.
Provisional leaderboards following each workout will be released at midday the day following submission closing. E.g. leaderboard following WOD 1 will be provisionally released at midday on Wednesday 21st October. The provisional leaderboard may be subject to change following video review (see below). The exception to this is the final leaderboard after WOD 5 is submitted. There will be no provisional release here, the final leaderboard and podiums will be released at midday on Wednesday 28th October.
// Workout validation and penalties
All event workouts MUST be judged by someone who is proficient in the movements and fully familiar with the standards required. It is the responsibility of the judge to make sure the athlete completes the workout according to these standards and that no “no reps” are recorded on video review. Athletes should bear this in mind when selecting their judge – they should not simply be a cheerleader and rep counter!
All workouts should also be videoed to the below standards:
- Film the equipment so the loads can be seen clearly.
- Videos must be uncut and unedited to accurately display the performance.
- If WODProof is not being used a clock or timer must be visible throughout the workout.
- Shoot the video so all exercises can be seen clearly meeting the movement standards.
- Videos shot with a fisheye lens or similar lens may be rejected.
The leaderboards released the day following submission are provisional based on video review. The Rainhill judging team will validate the top 6 entries for each workout in each category, along with a further 6 random entries from the leaderboard. This review will take place in the day following submission closure. Until that review is complete the leaderboard is considered provisional. All workouts for all podium finishers will also be subject to video review.
For a rep-based workout, any no reps will be deducted from the overall rep score for the workout. E.g. if an athlete submits a score of 230, but on video review 12 reps were found to be invalid, the score for that workout will be adjusted to 218.
For a time-based workout, any no reps will be subject to a 2 second penalty. E.g. if an athlete submits a time of 05:42 but 6 no reps were counted on video review, their time will be adjusted to 05:54.
Your judge should enforce movement standards and requirements during your workout to minimise any penalties you receive.

Workouts
WOD 1
For Time (CAP 16 mins)
1k Row
100x Double Unders
750m Row
100x Double Unders
500m Row
100x Double Unders
Score is total time to complete. If you do not complete within the time cap enter the total metres plus double unders completed. E.g. if you complete 25 x DU of the final set your score is 1000 + 100 + 750 +100 + 500 + 25 = 2475
ROCKET
Complete as written
KENNEDY
Complete 75 x DU per round rather than 100 or you may perform 150 x SU per round with no further penalty. A full round must be completed with one of the two movements. E.g. if you complete 74 double unders but then choose to move to single unders you must complete 150 single unders for that round. In the event of not completing within the time cap you will receive one point credit for each two single unders completed. E.g. if you complete 18 x SU of the final set your score will be 1000 + 75 + 750 + 75 + 500 + 9 = 2409
WOOD
Complete 50 x DU or you may perform 100 x SU per round with no further penalty. A full round must be completed with one of the two movements. E.g. if you complete 49 double unders but then choose to move to single unders you must complete 100 single unders for that round. In the event of not completing within the time cap you will receive one point credit for each two single unders completed. E.g. if you complete 26 x SU of the final set your score will be 1000 + 50 + 750 + 50 + 500 + 13 = 2363

// Movement standards:
Toes to bar: In the toes-to-bar, the athlete must go from a full hang to having the toes touch the pull-up bar. Both feet must be in contact with the bar at the same time, inside the hands (but do not have to first make contact at the same moment). The arms and hips must be fully extended at the bottom and the feet must be brought back behind the bar and behind the body.
Knee Raise: For a knee raise the athlete must go from a full hang to the knees being lifted so that the hip crease is below the plane of the knee. The arms and hips must be fully extended at the bottom and the feet must be brought back behind the bar and behind the body.
Hang DB Clean and Jerk: After the DB is lifted from the floor, the athlete must pause in the hang position, either at their side or between the legs. From there the athelte may perform a muscle clean, power clean, squat clean or split clean, so long as the DB comes up and makes contact with the shoulder before being lifted overhead.
Once at the shoulder, the athlete may get the DB overhead any way he or she chooses. Shoulder press, push press, push jerk and split jerk are all permitted. The non-working hand may not come into contact with the body or the DB while the DB is being lifted. Athletes may use two hands when lowering the DB between reps. At the top, the arm, hips and knees must be fully locked out with the dumbbell clearly over the middle of the athlete’s body when viewed from profile. Once the athlete has reached lockout, the repetition will count. If a split jerk is performed, both feet must return and be in line under the athlete’s body while the dumbbell is locked out overhead. Each round, athletes must perform 10 repetitions on one arm, then switch and perform the next 10 with the other arm.
Double under: This is the standard double-under in which the rope passes under the feet twice for each jump. The rope must spin forward for the rep to count. Only successful jumps are counted, not just attempts.
Single under: This is the standard single-under in which the rope passes under the feet once for each jump. The rope must spin forward for the rep to count. Only successful jumps are counted, not just attempts. The jump must be two footed, alternating feet is not permitted.
WOD 3A
In an 8 min window:
Find a maximum weight for a complex of:
1 x Hang Snatch
3 x Overhead Squat
NB: the hang snatch completes when stood tall at full lockout. If a hang squat snatch is performed this DOES NOT constitute the first overhead squat
// Movement standards:
Hang snatch: The hang position is anything below full extension without the barbell touching the ground. Above the knee/below the knee both acceptable. The hang snatch will be counted once the Athlete clearly shows control of the barbell overhead. The barbell must come to full lockout overhead with the hips, knees and arms fully extended, and the bar directly over the middle of the body. Pressing out the arms at the top to complete the movement is allowed as long as the barbell does not touch the shoulders or head. Muscle, power and full snatch are all acceptable.
Overhead squat: At the bottom of the movement the hip crease must pass below the plane of the knee. At the top of the movement the barbell must come to full lockout overhead with the hips, knees and arms fully extended, and the bar directly over the middle of the body

Wood

Male 35kg / Female 25kg
Your score is TOTAL REPETITIONS of BOTH wall ball and squat cleans
// Movement standards:
Wall ball: In the wall ball, the medicine ball must be taken from the bottom of a squat, hip crease below the knee, and thrown to hit the specified target. The centre of the ball must hit the target at or above the specified target height. If the ball hits low or does not hit the wall, it is a no rep.
Squat clean: The movement begins with the barbell on the ground, and finishes with the bar racked on the shoulders and the elbows clearly in front of the bar with the hips and knees fully extended. At some point during the movement the hip crease must pass below the plane of the knee. This may be achieved via a squat clean, or via a power clean or muscle clean followed by a front squat.
For Time: CAP 15 mins
This workout is designed to be a challenging gymnastic workout. We are aware that certain athletes may struggle with the more advanced gymnastic movements. A split time should be taken after the final set of Box Jump Overs which will be used to separate any ties if the full workout is not completed in the time cap.
