Workout 1: (I will explain in RX'd weights and give the other division weights after)
3 Reps of Ground to OH at varying weights.
Each team will start with one male and one female empty barbell and a stack of plates for each barbell. Each athlete will need to complete 3 reps of ground to OH at the given "plate stack" before the next person can lift.
Male stack (2 of each plate--one for each side of the BB):
10's, 15's, 25's, 35's, 45's
Female stack:
5's, 10's, 15's, 25's 35's
Female 1 starts: she must take 45 # (the barbell plus a 5 # plate on each side) from the ground (in this case just below the knee) to OH three times.
Male 2 goes next: he must take 65 # (the barbell plus a 10 # plate on each side) from the ground to OH 3x
Female 2 goes next: she must also take 45 # from ground to OH 3x
Male 2 goes next: he takes 65 # from ground to OH 3x
Females add 10 # plates to the bar (bringing it to 65 # because the 5 # plates stay on) and Males add 15 # plates to their bar (bringing it to 95 # because the 10 # plates stay on)
Same order athletes bring the new weight from ground to OH 3x.
Females add 15 # plates to the bar (bringing it to 95 #) and Males add 25 # to bar (bringing it to 145 #)
Same order athletes bring the bar from the ground to OH.
Etc. through the stack of plates.
IF an athlete gets to a weight they cannot lift they can lift the designated plates in any combination, as long as ALL OF THE DESIGNATED plates get from the ground to OH 3x.
For instance; The last bar for females has a total weight of 203 # (2 of each plate: 5,10, 15,25,35 on the bar) The female athlete could first lift 143 # (5's, 10's, 15's and 25's) from the ground to OH 3x and then take all of those plates off, put on the 35 # plates and lift that 3x to complete that designated stack of plates.
If an athlete needed to split the stack into 3 different weights, that's fine. They would just have to lift 9x (3x at each of the 3 different weights)
Make sense?
It is for time.
Here are the following plate stacks and weights:
RX/40+:
Male: 10, 15, 25, 35, 45 (65 #, 95 #, 145 #, 215 #, 305 #)
Female: 5, 10, 15, 25, 35 (45 #, 65 #, 95 #, 145 #, 205 #)
Open/50+:
Male: 5, 10, 15, 25, 35 (55 #, 75 #, 105 #, 155 #, 225 #)
Female: 2 1/2, 5, 10, 15, 25 (40 #, 50 #, 70 #, 100 #, 150 #)
AGAIN: they don't need to lift those final weights, they just have to be able to lift some configuration of those plates
