Rx’d
15-minute AMRAP of the following triplet:
- 3 wall walks
- 12 dumbbell snatches — Men: 50 pounds | Women: 35 pounds
- 15 box jump-overs — Men: 24-inch box | Women: 20-inch box
Scores are tabulated by the total number of repetitions within the 15-minute time cap. A new movement standard is implemented for the box jump-overs: athletes must deliberately step down off the box each rep; jumping off to rebound back up is disallowed.
As Ohlsen and Vellner squared off, it was clear early on in their workouts that the workout was very high volume and athletes should plan accordingly. Both athletes were already into their fourth round before the fourth minute. Considering that the workout will last 15 minutes no matter what, finding a maintainable pace is a likely key to success. For context, Vellner scored 11 total rounds, Brandon got two reps into round 12.
