SCALING: Athletes should choose a weight for the Overhead Squats that allows for 15 reps to be completed in 3 sets or less within the given time frame. Athletes should choose a weight for the Dumbbell Snatches that allows for sets of 10 snatches at a time without putting the dumbbell down, 5 on each arm. Athletes should choose a number and variation for Double Unders that they can complete in the given time.
SCORING: In Part 1 athletes’ score will be the lightest weight they use for one of their 5 working sets. In Part 2 athletes’ scores will be total rounds + reps of the workout. Athletes should aim for about 4 rounds.
