Barbell Cycling (Benchmark Testing) 

“Bar Fight” In a 3 Minute Window:

9 Power Snatches 15 Power Cleans 21 Push Jerks Time Remaining: Max Overhead Squats (135/95) *Score is total overhead squats This is a fast moving workout. Stimulus wise, we are looking to get to clear the 9-15-21 at an aggressive pace - no set needs to be unbroken, but if were to try, we would be confident we could complete any of these counts unbroken by themselves when fresh.

Very strong athletes can clear the 9-15-21 in under 2:00, with most highly fit athletes having somewhere between :45-30s remaining in the window. It's not a full sprint to get the work done, but an aggressive pace to give ourselves the best chance to maximize our overhead squat repetitions.

If we have doubts that we can clear the 9-15-21 in under 2:30, let's modify the weight down just a touch - and aim to move faster. It absolutely will not be easier.
