You will have the opportunity to display these feats every 8 weeks at the same time as the snatch test.
A certificate will be issued upon proving your strength and conditioning for each level.
New trainees – do not rush to attain level 1, you are still learning good technique and laying a foundation of strength.
The rules for each skill
Turkish get up – The vertical arm must be locked out for the duration, the movement must be executed in a safe and controlled manner. Slumping to the ground will be a no count, dropping the bell will be a no count.
Military press – The pressing arm must visibly lock out in a vertical position. A dip at the legs is not allowed and will be a no count.
Squat – The trainee can choose to squat one or two bells. The knee crease must go lower than the hip crease, the heels must remain on the floor. Dropping the weight is a no count.
Clean – The bell will be cleaned from the floor and repeatedly cleaned for 5 reps. Excessive hip rotation will be deemed a failure, if the bell fails to land in the rack will also be a failure.
One hand swing – The bell will be hiked between the legs for 15 consecutive swings to chest height on both arms. If neutral spine is lost, this is a failure, if the bell is not parked safely, this is a failure. Total control must be maintained through out.
Snatch test – The trainee will snatch the bell 100 times inside 5 minutes, the bell can be parked at any point and multiple hand switches are allowed.
You fail if –
The bell is not locked out in a vertical position
The bell slips out of your hand
You touch the bell with your free hand on the decent
You do not get 100 reps inside the 5 minute time frame.
