Scoring

Score: Time

Movements

Target Score: 25-35 Minutes

Loading Target: Moderate Loading

Row: 10-8-6 minutes.

Thruster: 10+ reps unbroken at a time.

Rope Climb: Less than 3:00.

The One | Teaching Focus

Legs Lead the Way

The thruster is a movement where athletes often struggle with timing. Athletes are often pressing too early (most likely) or waiting too long after the squat to press. We want to emphasize a strong leg drive with a quick 1-2 punch of legs finishing the drive and then recruiting the arms for the press. The bar should "float" for a moment when athletes execute this correctly.

  • 5-7 Push Presses (Cued Reps)
  • Focus: Timing—hips and legs extend first, then arms press.
  • Cue: “Legs drive, arms follow.”
  • Athletes dip and drive on “go,” then reset their stance and bar position between each rep to refine timing.
  • 5-7 Thrusters (Cued Reps)
  • Focus: Smooth transition through squat, hip extension, and press.
  • Cue: “Squat, pop, punch.”
  • Athletes focus on driving out of the squat, fully extending at the hips, and finishing with a strong overhead press in one fluid motion.

Look For

  • Row: Athletes can switch out however they want here, encouraging them to hold a hard effort since they get a 2:1 rest.
  • Thrusters: Look for our teaching focus, legs should lead the way.
  • Rope Climb: Look for proper sequence, reach-lock-stand.
