Flow:

RX/Masters/Scaled Flow:

At 3.2.1. GO athlete 1 will begin rowing. 

At 3.2.1. GO athlete 2 will begin on their GHD buy-in. After their GHDs, athlete 2 will move to the barbell. Athletes can power or squat clean the bar the bar to begin front squats. If the athlete squat cleans the first rep, this counts as their first front squat. The athlete may set the bar down and is NOT required to repeat the buy-in or switch. Athletes can do as many sets as they please before switching with their partner. Once the athletes switch, they are required to repeat the buy-in.

Athletes can switch at any point, but each time athletes switch, they MUST do their GHD buy-in before their front squats. 

The rower will accumulate calories for the entire duration of the 10 minutes from both athletes. We will be counting all rollover calories. Each calorie counts as 0.33 of a rep towards your total score. 

At the end of the 10-minute mark, the total calories rowed will be marked as well as the total front squats. Each team's score will come from the total # of front squats + (calories* 0.33).

There will be no tie break.
