Team Event 1: Team Snatch Ladder

(Weight in lb.)

M: 185/195/205/215/225/235/245/255/265/275 (11th platform staged at 285)

F: 135/140/145/150/155/160/165/170/175/180 (11th platform staged at 185)


*If one or both lifters completes the ladder, one attempt at the 11th platform is earned. During the next 1-min rotation the athlete will rest and declare the load they wish to lift. After the minute of rest, they will have from 0:00-0:25 seconds to complete the lift. 

**If both lifters on a team complete the ladder, the team must choose 1 athlete to attempt the 11th lift.

Heat Size: 10 teams (all heats of men lift, then all heats of women)


Notes

The pair of athletes on the first team will start standing behind the first platform. After the countdown of 3-2-1-GO, the first athlete will have 25 seconds to complete the lift. At the 25-second mark, the second athlete will have 25 seconds to lift. If an athlete is successful, they will move to stand behind the next platform. At the 50-second mark, the next pair will enter and wait behind the first platform. After a 10-second transition (at the top of the minute), the cycle begins again. This cycle continues until both men cannot complete the lift. 

Athletes may take as many attempts within their allotted time as they would like. If at any point an athlete fails to complete the lift within the designated time, they will exit the field of play and their teammate will continue without them, maintaining their lifting order.


If an athlete completes the entire ladder, after the 10-second transition, they will be given the next minute as rest where they will declare the load they would like to attempt at the 11th platform. At the 11th platform, athletes will have from 0-25 seconds to make the lift. 

After the men have finished, the platforms will be reset and the women will complete the workout in the same fashion.

After the women have lifted, the team’s score will be the total of each of the four teammates' heaviest successful lift.

Timing Details

0:00-0:25 - Lifter 1

0:25-0:50 - Lifter 2

0:50-1:00 - Transition to next platform/next pair enters

Continue cycling in this fashion until all athletes have lifted.

All lifts at the 11th platform start at the top of the minute

Movement Standards:

Note: if an athlete steps off of the platform at any time during the attempt it is an immediate no rep.

Snatch

Starting position:

  • The barbell begins on the ground and must be lifted overhead in one motion. 

  • Power, squat, and split snatches are all permitted, but in each instance, the athlete’s feet must be brought back in line before the bar is lowered. 

  • Hang snatches and any variation of clean and jerk are not permitted.  

The repetition is credited when:

  • The barbell is at full lockout overhead with the hips, knees, and arms fully extended.

  • The bar is directly over or slightly behind the middle of the body with the feet in line.

Other notes:

  • The lift must be completed before the time limit expires. If the athlete is still in-motion at 25 seconds the lift will NOT count. 

  • Once an athlete cannot complete a lift, they will leave the field of play.

  • Athletes may NOT change their lifting order, even after 1 athlete has left the field of play.
