NOTES
Prior to starting this workout, each athlete will need to mark a box on the ground and a foot line on the wall for the handstand push-ups (details in Movement Standards section). They will also need to mark the required height on the wall or wall-ball target. This workout begins with the barbell on the floor and the athlete standing tall. At the call of “3, 2, 1 … go,” the athlete will perform 55 deadlifts, then move to the designated target to complete 55 wall-ball shots, then to the rower to pull 55 calories, then to the wall for handstand push-ups. If 55 handstand push-ups are completed, the athlete will move back to the barbell to begin another round.
The athlete’s score will be the total number of repetitions completed within the 13-minute time cap.
TIEBREAK
The scoring for this workout includes a tiebreak. Upon completion of 55 reps of each exercise, time should be marked. When you submit your final result, your score will be the number of reps completed. There will be another field in which you will enter the elapsed time at which you completed your last full set on any of the exercises. In the case where two athletes have the same score (total number of reps), the athlete with the lower tiebreak time will be ranked higher.
Note: All tiebreak times must be reported in elapsed time, not in time remaining. If you are using a countdown timer, you must convert to elapsed time before reporting your score. For this reason, it is recommended you set your clock to count up.
EQUIPMENT
- Barbell
- Standard bumper plates (18-inch diameter) to load to the appropriate weight for your division
- Collars
- A medicine ball of the appropriate weight for your division
- A wall mark or target set at specified height for wall-ball shots
- A wall mark and floor marks for the handstand push-ups
- Rower that counts calories, similar in type and calibration to a Concept2 rower
VIDEO SUBMISSION STANDARDS
Prior to starting, lm the plates and barbell to be used so the loads can be seen clearly. Also lm the measuring of the height, width and depth of the handstand push-up markers, the height of the wall-ball target and the weight of the ball so all loads and measurements can be seen clearly. All video submissions should be uncut and unedited in order to accurately display the perfor- mance. A clock or timer with the running workout time clearly visible should be in the frame throughout the entire workout. Shoot the video from an angle so all exercises can be clearly seen meeting the movement standards. Videos shot with a sheye lens or similar lens may be rejected due to the visual distortion these lenses cause.
