2013 Subway Series Event 1!

The 2013 Subway Series starts Saturday, August 3rd at CrossFit Queens!The Workout"DT Ladder"Athletes have 80 seconds to complete the following complex:3 Deadlifts2 Hang Power Cleans1 JerkThe athlete will attempt the complex at up to 12 increasing weights, ladder-style.  For an attempt to be counted, the athlete must complete at least 3 deadlifts.  There will be a 10 second transition period after each 80 second lifting period for athletes to move to the next bar in the ladder.  If the athlete fails at a weight, they may attempt it again, and/or complete as many burpees as possible in the remainder of 80 seconds -- this will be used as a tiebreaker.  Once the athlete fails a weight, they will be out and will not proceed to the next bar.WeightsScaled Women: 35, 45, 55, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 105Scaled Men: 65, 85, 105, 125, 135, 145, 155, 165, 175, 185, 195, 205RX Women: 75, 85, 95, 105, 110, 115, 120, 125, 130, 135, 140, 145RX men: 135, 155, 175, 195, 205, 215, 225, 235, 245, 255, 265, 275Scoring and Tie BreaksScore will be based on (in this order):

• The highest weight at which the athlete successfully completed the complex
• How far the athlete progressed in the complex at the weight at which they failed.
• How many burpees the athlete completed in the remainder of 80 seconds.

For example:Athlete A successfully completes the complex at 215, performs 3 deadlifts and 2 cleans but fails the jerk at 225, and then completes 7 burpees in the remainder of 80 seconds.  His score is 215.507.Athlete B successfully completes the complex at 215, performs 3 deadlifts and then goes right into the burpees, performing 21  in the remainder of 80 seconds.  His score is 215.321.Movement Standards

• Deadlifts start on the ground and end with knees and hips completely open.
• Deadlifts must be touch-and-go -- no stopping or regripping on the ground.
• The complex must be completed unbroken -- i.e. you may not put the barbell down on the ground at any time during the complex except to touch and go between deadlifts.
• Athletes may regrip off the ground -- i.e. hold the barbell in their hip crease and regrip between cleans.
• Cleans start with arms fully extended and end with the bar in a front rack, knees and hips completely open.
• Squat cleans will be permitted.
• There must be a re-dip after the third deadlift (athletes may not power clean from the ground.)
• Jerk will be interpreted as shoulder to overhead by any means -- the bar must begin in the front rack and end completely locked out overhead.
• The athlete may not jerk from alternative locations (i.e. behind the neck.)
