The athlete must clearly touch the designated area of the crossbeam before touching the rope with the legs or feet. The rep will be completed when the athlete touches the designated area on the crossbeam.

Strict Handstand Push-up -The athlete will begin the rep inverted with shoulders and elbows fully extended, hips open, and heels touching the wall. The athlete will then lower themselves until the head clearly touches the ground. From there the athlete will then return to the starting position and finish the rep with elbows and shoulders at full extension, hips open and heels touching the wall. If any part of the body other than the heels touch the wall or feet move beyond the width of the hands it is a no rep. Kipping or assisting with the legs is not allowed.

The dimensions of the box will be 24 inches deep (measured from the wall) x 36 inches wide. 

Alternating Dumbbell Snatch - Athletes will start each rep with both heads of the dumbbell on the ground. The athlete will then snatch or swing the dumbbell from the floor and finish with the dumbbell locked out overhead with hips, knees, shoulders, and arms at full extension; this shall indicate a completed repetition. The athlete may NOT pause at the shoulders and press the dumbbell. Athletes will be required to alternate hands for each rep. Both heads of the dumbbell will be required to touch the floor.
