Notes
Prior to starting, athletes must set up the competition area as shown in the floor plan.
This workout begins with all athletes standing over the line, away from the wall. After the call of “3, 2, 1… go,” the first male athlete may move to the wall and complete 15 strict handstand push-ups, then to the dumbbells for 15 hang power cleans, and finally to the rope for 100 double-unders. After completing this sequence, the first male athlete will tag the second male athlete, who then will complete 15, 15, and 100 reps. After finishing the round, the second male athlete will tag the first male athlete, and each will complete the sequence again. After both athletes have completed 2 rounds, they will then immediately continue to 2 rounds following the same pattern, this time with 15 kipping handstand push-ups, 15 dumbbell shoulder-to-overheads, and 100 double-unders.
When the second male athlete completes his final round, he will tag in the first female athlete. The female athletes then will complete the workout in the same fashion. Time stops when the second female athlete completes her final double-under on her final round.
The team’s score will be the total time it takes to complete the workout or the total number of repetitions completed before the 30-minute time cap.
Athletes must always start behind the line before they are tagged in to begin their round.
Tiebreak (if applicable)
The time should be recorded after each athlete completes each round.
If the team completes the workout before the time cap, there will be no tiebreaker.
If the team does not complete the workout before the time cap, enter the total number of reps completed as well as the time at which the last athlete completed a full round.
In the case of a tie (i.e., teams complete the same number of reps), the team with the lower tiebreak time will be ranked higher.
Do NOT use a countdown timer.

1 of 10The inside of the box for the handstand push-up must measure 40 inches wide and 24 inches deep. The box must be on the same surface as the hands (i.e., if using an elevated platform, not on the floor beneath.)
2 of 10The arms must be fully extended and in line with the body before the athlete can descend. Each rep begins and ends with the athlete in the lockout position with the heels against the wall, arms fully extended and shoulders in line with the body. The hands must remain inside the 40-by-24-inch box. If any part of the hand, including any part of the fingers, touches the tape line at any time, the repetition will not count. The athlete will need to start again from the lockout position.
3 of 10At the bottom, the head must make contact with the ground. If the head and hands are on different surfaces, the surfaces must be level (i.e., if the hands are on plates and there is a pad under the head, the top of the pad must be level with the top of the plates). The feet do not need to remain in contact with the wall for the duration of the movement, but the feet must return to the wall at the beginning and end of each rep. The feet may be no wider than the width of the hands.
4 of 10The rep is credited when the athlete returns to the lockout position with the heels on the wall, with arms, hips and legs fully extended, and shoulders in line with the body.

Kipping IS ALLOWED during the second triplet.
5 of 10The athlete and the dumbbells must remain in front of the tape line. If the athlete’s feet touch or cross the line at any time, the rep will not count.

From this position, the dumbbells are lowered to the hang.

The athlete must reach the finish position before the dumbbells are lowered from the shoulders. The athlete may lower the subsequent repetitions directly to the hang position. Athletes may NOT have assistance resetting their equipment during the workout.
8 of 10The athlete must remain in front of the tape line. If the athlete’s feet touch or cross the line at any time, the rep will not count. 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 attempts. Athletes may NOT have assistance resetting their equipment during the workout After completing the final double under, tag the next athlete The waiting athlete must be behind the line until they are tagged.
