Quarterfinals Workouts

Notes

Prior to starting, athletes must set up the competition area as shown in the floor plan.

This workout begins with all athletes across the line, away from the barbell. After the call of “3, 2, 1 … go,” the first female athlete may move to the barbell to start the snatches. Snatches must be performed facing the box. After completing 9 snatches, the athlete will move to the box and complete 9 burpee box jump-overs, continuing in this manner for the rounds of 6 and 3 reps. After the final burpee box jump-over, the first female athlete will tag the second female athlete to begin the 9 snatches in the same manner. After the second female athlete completes her final burpee box jump-over, she will tag the first male athlete. When the first male athlete finishes his final burpee box jump-over, he will tag the second male athlete. Time stops when the second male athlete’s feet land on the opposite side of the box after the final burpee box jump-over.

The team’s score will be the total time it takes to complete the workout or the total number of repetitions completed before the 15-minute time cap.

Tiebreak (if applicable)

The time should be recorded after each athlete finishes their portion of the workout.

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, when they log their score they will enter the total number of reps they completed as well as the time at which the last teammate successfully completed the test.

In the case of a tie (i.e., athletes complete the same number of reps), the team with the lower tiebreak time will be ranked higher. 

Do NOT use a countdown timer.
