NOTES
After the call of “3, 2, 1 … go,” the athlete may perform 30 box jumps followed by 15 clean and jerks, then 30 box jumps followed by 15 clean and jerks at a heavier weight, then 30 box jumps followed by 10 clean and jerks, increasing the weight again. Next, the athlete performs 30 single-leg squats followed by 10 clean and jerks, then 30 single-leg squats followed by 5 clean and jerks, and finally, 30 single-leg squats followed by 5 clean and jerks. Again, the weight of the clean and jerk increases each round.
Athletes may set up multiple barbells. If one barbell is used, the athlete may receive assistance changing the load on the bar. Receiving any assistance other than adjusting loading is not permitted unless safety is an immediate concern.
TIEBREAK
If the athlete completes the entire workout prior to the 20-minute time cap, their score will be their total time, and there will be no tiebreaker.
If the athlete is not able to complete the entire workout in the allotted time, a tiebreaker will be factored into their score. During the workout, be sure to note the athlete’s time at the end of each set of box jumps and single-leg squats. When the athlete submits their score, there will be a space for their final rep count and an additional field for them to enter the elapsed time at which they completed their final rep of box jumps or single-leg squats. 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. Do NOT use a countdown timer.

Any athlete who in any way alters the equipment or movements described in this document or shown in the workout standards video may be disqualified from the competition.
VIDEO SUBMISSION STANDARDS
- Film the plates and barbell so the loads can be seen clearly, and show the height of the box with a tape measure.
- Scaled divisions also need to film the medicine ball.
- Videos must be uncut and unedited to accurately display the performance.
- Your judge and 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.

1 of 10For the box jumps, start with both feet on the ground and face the side of the box. Do NOT angle the box and jump or step up on the corner.
2 of 10Jumping OR stepping onto and off the box is permitted. Only the feet may make contact with the box. Using hands to push into the legs during the step-up is not allowed.
3 of 10The rep is credited when both feet are on top of the box; and hips and knees are fully extended, with head and shoulders over the hips. Reaching extension in midair is a no rep.
4 of 10Start each rep of the clean and jerk with the barbell on the ground. Touch and go is permitted. No bouncing or dropping and catching the barbell on the rebound. If dropped, the barbell must settle on the ground before the start of the next rep. Power cleans, squat cleans, and split cleans are permitted. Hang cleans are not allowed.
5 of 10If using an empty barbell, or a barbell with smaller-than-standard plates, each rep must begin with the barbell clearly below the knees.
6 of 10The lift must have two distinct phases: the clean and the jerk. Snatching is not permitted. The barbell must make contact with the shoulders. It is NOT necessary to lock out the hips and legs to complete the clean before lifting the bar overhead.
7 of 10The rep is credited when the barbell is locked out overhead, and arms, hips, and legs are extended; and the bar is over or slightly behind the center of the body, with feet in line. A press, push press, push jerk, or split jerk are all permitted as long as the required finish position is achieved. Receiving any assistance other than adjusting loading is not permitted unless safety is an immediate concern.
8 of 10At the start and finish of each rep of the single-leg squat, the hips and knee of the working leg are extended. The non-working leg must remain in front of the body (cannot pass beyond profile). Holding on to the non-working leg is permitted.
9 of 10At the bottom, the hip crease must pass below the top of the knee on the working leg. If any part of the body other than the support foot touches the floor before lockout, the rep will not count. Must alternate legs after every successful rep. Must complete a successful rep on one side before alternating. Resting the non-working leg on the working leg or using the hands/arms to push into the working leg is not permitted.
10 of 10Scaled and Masters 55+ divisions may use a medicine-ball step-up in place of single-leg squats. The ball can be held in any manner but may not make contact with the legs. See above for additional movement standards for the box step-up.
