First WOD Release, and other info.

"Our main goal is to have a helluva good time."

Judges Briefing: 8:00am
*Judges, if you can try your best to make it at 8:00 that'd be great! We'll be going over standards and answering questions. If you can't, stay tuned through the rest of the week for specific standards videos.

Athlete Sign-in: 8:30am
*Athletes, please arrive no later than 9:00am

WOD 1 start time: 9:30 am
WOD 2 start time: 10:20
WOD 3 start time: 11:10
WOD 4 start time: 1:00
WOD 5 Ladies start time: 2:30
WOD 5 Guys start time: 3:30
*These are tentative times. If it rains, expect a slightly different schedule.

*Also, if it does rain, we'll still be running outside as long as its not storming.

Look for the rest of the WOD's to be released (in print) tomorrow, with standards videos to come shortly after. (Wednesday and Thursday) Because I know you are all anxious (and believe me, it's been killing me not telling anyone these workouts) to know at least something that you'll specifically be doing, here's WOD 1 (for the fellas)/WOD 2 (for the ladies).

*THIS IS NOT A STANDARDS VIDEO. Stay tuned for that tomorrow.

WOD: Snatch Complex (Wod 1 for guys, Wod 2 for ladies)
In 6 minutes: Find your 1rm for the following complex.
1 Snatch from floor
1 Snatch from the Hang (must be above knees)
1 Overhead Squat.

*These 3 movements will be performed in a back to back fashion, without the bar ever going back to the floor after the initial lift off.
*The bar starts empty.
*For both snatches, any type is allowed (Squat, Power, Split).
*The first snatch must show continuous movement from floor to overhead (i.e. cannot Hang snatch the first rep).
*A Squat Snatch from the hang DOES NOT count as your overhead squat. (See video)
*Press outs are allowed, but the bar must be clearly received higher than the top of the head, and cannot touch any part of the body upon receiving.
*The bar cannot "rest"  anywhere besides the 'hang while in a full stand.' Therefore, you cannot sit the bar in the crease of your hips and rest, nor can you lower it to your back.
*Straps cannot be used.
