Movement Standards

Thruster

This is a standard barbell thruster in which the barbell moves from the bottom of a front squat to full lock out overhead. The bar starts on the ground. No racks allowed. The hip crease must pass below the knees. A full squat clean into the thruster is allowed if the bar is on the ground.     The barbell must come to full lockout overhead with the hips, knees and arms fully extended, and the bar directly over the heels.    

Chest to bar Pull-up

This is a standard chest to bar pull-up. Dead-hang, kipping or butterfly pull-ups are all allowed as long as all the requirements are met. The arms must be fully extended at the bottom.     At the top, the chest must clearly come into contact with the bar. For masters women (55+), touching the chest is not required, but the chin must break the horizontal plane of the bar.

Video Submission Standards

Prior to starting, film the barbell and plates to show that it is loaded to the appropriate weight for your division. All video submissions should be uncut and unedited in order to accurately display the performance. A second person with a stopwatch will need to be in the frame throughout the entire workout. Shoot the video from the side so that it is clear that proper depth and lockout is being reached on the thrusters and the chest can be seen touching the bar on the pull-ups.
