Here’s a little taste of what to expect at the Throwdown… announcing WODs 1 & 2!
Event 1
5 minutes to lift as many pounds as possible.
As a team, choose one weight from the following options:
135, 115, 95, 75
The weight on the bar will remain the same the entire workout. The team will work together to lift as many pounds as possible within the 5 minutes. Each athlete must perform the movement designated to their division:
Rx Male – Snatch
Rx Female – Clean & Jerk
Scaled Male – Clean & Jerk
Scaled Female – Deadlift
Athletes will establish an order and must stay in that order for the entire workout. Each athlete must perform at least 1 rep before rotating. Athletes must rotate every 10 reps, if not sooner.
Score = total reps x weight on barbell
1 minute to transition to Rower for Event 2
Event 2
7 minute row for Max Calories
Teams will establish an order and must stay in order for the entire workout. Athletes must switch every 15 calories for guys / 10 calories for girls. The athlete coming off of the rower must complete 5 burpee lateral hops over the barbell before the next athlete can begin rowing. The athlete next in line can begin getting on the rower and strapping in while his/her teammate performs burpees. The rower does not need to be reset each time.
Score = total calories rowed
