Scoring

Every event will be worth up to 100 points, and athletes earn points based on their finish (see chart). At the end of the weekend, the athlete with the most points is the winner. Athletes who tie receive the same number of points. If athletes fail to complete an event within the time cap (for timed events), their score will be capped, and they will receive a 1-second penalty for each rep not completed.

Some events will have a minimum work requirement. For those events, athletes who fail to meet the minimum work requirement will not be eligible to move on to the next event. Athletes must continue to work to complete all the repetitions until the time cap expires.
