Event 2

Teams of 3 • 9 Minutes Total (3 Minutes Each Athlete)

Overview

Athletes will earn points by choosing between three pulling movements—Pull-Ups, Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups, or Muscle-Ups. Higher-skill movements reward more points, but advancing to a more difficult variation requires completing a wall-ball penalty.

Movement Options & Point Values
Movement Points per Rep
Pull-Up (PU) 1 point
Chest-to-Bar Pull-Up (C2B) 2 points
Muscle-Up (MU) 3 points

Athletes may perform any movement at any time, but must complete the penalty below when advancing to a harder variation.

Progression Rule: Advancing in Difficulty

To move UP a level (e.g., PU → C2B or C2B → MU), athletes must perform:

✔ 10 Wall Balls (Penalty)

Details:

Athletes must complete 10 wall balls every time they progress to a harder movement.

No penalty when:

Staying at the same movement level.

Moving down to an easier movement.

Recommended wall-ball standard:

9/6 kg balls

Target heights: 10’/9’ (3.05m/2.75m)

(Adjust for your competition if needed.)

Flow of the Event

Athlete 1 works from 0:00–3:00

Athlete 2 works from 3:00–6:00

Athlete 3 works from 6:00–9:00

Total team time: 9 minutes.

Each athlete earns as many points as possible in their 3-minute window.

Scoring

Team score = total points from all three athletes.

Full reps must meet standard:

Pull-Up: chin clears the bar.

Chest-to-Bar: contact below the clavicle.

Muscle-Up: full lockout above the rings/bar (depending on apparatus).

Wall balls must hit the target AND reach full depth to count.

Event 3 (Final Event)

Teams of 3 • 9 Minutes Total (3 Minutes Each Athlete)

Overview

Each athlete has 3 minutes to complete ONE weighted front-rack carry option. The heavier the load, the shorter the distance. Once the carry distance is finished, the athlete uses the remaining time to accumulate as many calories as possible on the SkiErg.

Carry Options & Standards

Athletes choose one of the following:

Carry Option Load Distance
Option 1 – Heavy 2 × 32 kg (dual KB/DB) 100 meters
Option 2 – Moderate 2 × 24 kg 140 meters
Option 3 – Light/Endurance 2 × 16 kg 170 meters
Rules for the Carry

Implements must remain in front-rack position for the rep to count.

If the athlete drops the weights, they must resume from where they dropped them.

Carry is completed once the full prescribed distance has been covered.

SkiErg Accumulation

After completing their carry distance, the athlete may use the remaining time to accumulate as many calories as possible.

Every calorie = 1 point (or your chosen scoring system).

Flow of the Event

Athlete 1: 0:00–3:00

Athlete 2: 3:00–6:00

Athlete 3: 6:00–9:00

Total event time: 9 minutes.

Each athlete selects their carry option before their 3-minute window begins.

Scoring

Team score = total calories accumulated by all three athletes.

The carry itself does not award points but must be completed before touching the SkiErg.

Partial carry distances do not earn points—carry must be finished to move to the SkiErg.
