Standards

Power Clean - The Power Clean must be pulled from the floor and the bar must travel continuously to the shoulder.  You can not deadlift to hang, and then do a hang power clean.  The bar must be caught on the shoulder with the hips at or above parallel.  The bar must be stood up in a control manner, and the lifter must maintain control of the bar until the judge deems it a rep / no rep.

Back Squat - The bar must be racked on the back, and walked off the squat rack.  You must lower the bar until your hips go below parallel, and then stand the weight up extending the hips fully while maintaining control of the weight.

Bench Press - The lifter must establish control of the bar off of the rack at full arms length, lower the weight and touch the bar to the chest, and fully extend elbows back to a locked out position.  During extension the hips must stay engaged on the bench.  If the hips / buttocks raise off the bench the judge will deem the attempt a “no rep.”

Deadlift - The lifter must pull the weight from the ground and reach full knee and hip extension.  ”Hitching” or resting the bar on your thighs will result in a “no lift.”

Spotters will be available.  However, if a spotter touches the bar, weights, or assists the lifter at any time during a lift it will be counted as a “no rep.”

Format

We will have 4 platforms running at once, and a warm up area on the other side of the court.  4-5 athletes will be grouped based off of desired pin height on the back squat.

Athletes should be adequately warmed up, and will have 20 minutes to achieve a 1RM in the lift.  Each lifter will be limited to 3 attempts.  Groups should work together to help handle weights as handlers will not be present to assist with dressing bars.  Athletes will be allowed to communicate with coaches on/near the platform if necessary.

The MetCon and it’s standards will be announced tomorrow!

    All quiet on the CFDupont front … it’s almost as if something big is happening tomorrow.

    SWOD: 335# deadlift 1RM

    DWOD: only finished 4 rounds + 9 w/in 10 mins … quads were killing me, but i should have done a better job of pushing through and finishing.

    Good luck to everyone competing tomorrow.
