Notes
Please be sure to watch the entire workout instruction video (above).
This workout begins from the standing position with the barbell on the floor and the Athlete standing tall. Using a ball, box or other object to check for proper depth is not allowed. Every rep counts in this workout. You will enter your score as the total number of reps. See the Scorecard for assistance in calculating the rep total.
Time Bonus
This workout begins as a standard four-minute AMRAP of 15 thrusters and 15 chest-to-bar pull-ups. If the Athlete completes 90 reps (three complete rounds) before the time cap, there is a four-minute time bonus. The workout is now an eight-minute AMRAP.
The Athlete can continue working as fast as possible (i.e. there is no requirement to rest or wait until four minutes are up). For example, if an athlete completes three rounds in 3:00, their time is extended to 8:00 and they can immediately begin working on their fourth round, with five minutes remaining.
Now, if the Athlete completes 180 reps (six complete rounds) before the eight-minute time cap, there is another four-minute time bonus. The workout is now a 12-minute AMRAP. If the Athlete completes 270 reps (9 complete rounds) before the 12-minute mark, the workout becomes a 16-minute AMRAP. This pattern repeats indefinitely, as long as an additional 90 reps are completed before the time cap.

Video Submission Standards
Click
here to see an example of a valid video submission.
Prior to starting, film the plates and barbell to be used so the loads can be clearly seen. All video submissions should be uncut and unedited in order to accurately display the performance. A second person with a stopwatch should be in the frame throughout the entire workout. Shoot the video from the side so that it is clear that proper depth and lock out is being reached on the thrusters and the chest can be seen touching the bar on the pull-ups.
