Flow: It’s up to the athletes to decide if they want the Barbell either on the Squat Rack or on the floor before starting. The workout begins with both partners behind the tape line. At 3…2…1…Go, Partner 1 will complete their portion of their prescribed movement. They may complete all of the reps, or only some of the reps. As long as the Male Partner works toward 15 Front Squats, and the Female Partner works toward 15 deadlifts, they may switch off in any fashion. The resting partner must wait behind the tape line. 

All 30 Reps must be completed before the 5 Minute Time Cap. If you are unable to complete the workout within the Tome Cap, your score will be the total amount of reps completed.

*ATHLETES MUST ALWAYS TAG EACH OTHER WHEN ALTERNATING POSITIONS*

Movement Standards:

Front Squat: The Front Squat begins standing tall. The athlete the descends until their Hip Crease is CLEARLY BELOW their Knees, at which point the athlete will ascend, locking out their Knees and Hips. A Squat Rack will be provided for this workout but is not required. If taken from the floor as a Squat Clean, that will count as the first rep. Removing plates to plates to place the Barbell on the Squat Rack with ease is allowed. Both partners working together to lift the Barbell onto the Squat Rack (with one partner at each end) is NOT allowed. 

Deadlift: The Deadlift begins with the Barbell on the floor. The athlete the picks up the Barbell in any fashion. The rep is credited when the Hips and knees are locked out and the Shoulders are clearly behind the Barbell.
