    Quick Start

    • Start with both feet behind the start line of the shuttle run.
    • At “go,” complete 10 50-foot shuttle runs.
      • Each shuttle run rep is 25 feet down and 25 feet back.
    • Then, move to the barbell and complete 15 clean and jerks.
    • Continue in this fashion for:
      • 10 shuttle runs and 12 clean and jerks.
      • 10 shuttle runs and 9 clean and jerks.
      • A final round of 10 shuttle runs and 9 clean and jerks.
    • Your score is the total time taken to complete the event.
    • Record the time when the final clean and jerk is completed (full extension of the hips, knees, and arms with the bar over or behind the middle of the body).
    • With the timer still running, rest until the 15-minute time cap.
    • Then, in 3 minutes, establish a 1-rep-max clean and jerk.
      • You may take as many attempts as needed within the 3-minute time cap.
      • You may adjust the weight up or down as needed.
      • Any successful attempt that has started (bar is off the ground) before the time cap will count.
    • Your score will be the heaviest successful lift completed in pounds.

    Notes

    • Workouts 3A and 3B are separate scores and must be completed together.

      •  You may not combine separate attempts.

      • If the workout is completed multiple times, both scores must reflect the same 18-minute session (e.g., you cannot submit a score from 3A you completed on a Monday and a score from 3B you completed on a Tuesday).

    • If multiple athletes are working in the same heat, it is recommended there is at least 5 feet between barbells for safety.

    • 5-lb increments are the minimum weight increase that may be added (2.5-lb/1.25-kg change plates).

    • Athletes MAY receive assistance loading the bar and may stage a second bar for 3B.

    • If an athlete finishes ahead of the 3A time cap, they may complete warm-up lifts before 3B starts at 15 minutes.

    • Use one continuous timer following the chart below:
      • Workout 3A - 0-15 minutes
      • Workout 3B - 15-18 minutes

    Tiebreak

    • For Workout 3A, a tiebreak time will be taken after each set of shuttle runs.
      • Athletes who complete the workout will not enter a tiebreak time.
      • In the event of a tie on reps, the athlete with the faster tiebreak time will win the tie.
    • In the event of a tie on load for Workout 3B, the athlete’s score on 3A will be used to break the tie.

    Equipment

    • Barbell
      • Men are required to use a barbell with a minimum 28-millimeter diameter (e.g., a 45-lb/20-kg barbell or a Rogue C70/C70s barbell).
      • Women are required to use a barbell with a minimum 25-millimeter diameter (e.g., a 35-lb/15-kg barbell or a Rogue C68/C68s barbell).
      • Training barbells or other specialty barbells are not allowed.
    • Bumper plates
      • Must be standard bumper plates 18 inches (45 centimeters) in diameter.
      • During Workout 3B, the minimum loading increment is 5 lb (2.5-lb/1.25-kg change plates). No smaller plates will be allowed.
