BENCH'N JUMP

SPONSORED BY

 

This workout will have 2 separate scores.

 

Score 1

Max Unbroken set, Bench Press

 

Score 2

Max distance, Broad Jump

 

RX weight - 185/105#

Scaled weight - 135/75#

 

This workout is a Floater & can be done anytime throughout the allotted time during the day.

Score 1

Athletes will get one try at a max UnBroken set of bench presses.

As soon as the barbell is taken off the rack the UB set begins. Each repetition must begin & end w/ arms fully extended. Each repetition must pass through a position where the barbell touches the chest.

Bouncing off the chest will result in a NO REP.

Any repetition where the barbell touches the J-cups will result in a NO REP but the Athlete may continue their UB set.

Resting the barbell in the locked out position or on the chest is acceptable.

The UB set ends when the athlete fails a repetition or when the athlete returns the barbell to the J-cups or when the spotter touches the barbell.

Teammates will spot for each other.

Score 1 is number of successful UB bench press reps combined from the teammates.

     (Partner 1 =10 UB reps + Partner 2 = 20 UB reps. Score 1 would be a total of 30 UB reps)

Score 2

Each athlete will get two tries at a max distance broad jump.

The broad jump begins with both feet on the ground in a standing position & continues with jumping from two feet & landing on two feet.

Distance is marked behind the heels.

If any part of the athlete's body touches the ground behind their heels then the distance is measured at that point (think long jump in track & field).

If you put your hand down behind you or you fall on your ass, your distance is marked there.

If landing in a split foot position then distance is marked behind the heel that is in the shortest distance position. 

You must stick your landing & wait for the Judge to measure your distance & give you to the go ahead to move before your distance is official.

If you do not stick the landing, shuffle your feet, or move before your Judge gives you the go ahead to move then you will not get a score.

Score 2 is the athlete's best jump combined from the teammates.

     (Partner 1 =1.23 Meters + Partner 2 = 1.45 Meters) Score 2 would be a total of 2.68 Meters)

 

Athletes must do both bench press & broad jump with their teammate. Teams will come to the floater together & complete both parts together.
