Central Canada Sectional Workouts Announced
Prepare to meet the Canadian Crippler.
Athletes converge on Edmonton this weekend to battle it out and determine who will represent Central Canada in Regional Competition. Here's a look at the schedule of events.
Day 1
Event 1
3 Rep Max Overhead squat (20 min heats)
Movement Standards
* Squat must begin standing with the bar locked out over head
* The crease of the hip must dip clearly below the top of the knee
* The individual must stand the bar up 3 consecutive times showing control in the third rep at the top before unloading.
Protocol
Each station with host 5 athletes per heat. Each station will have 3 judges/volunteers (1 movement judge and 2 plate loaders).
The athletes will be called to the rack in a preset order and perform 1 of 3 attempts for a 3 rep max weight. The athlete will tell the plate loaders the desired weight and once loaded attempt the set. The Athletes will cycle through in the preset order until all athletes have completed 3 attempts. The athletes are allowed only three attempts. A failed attempt will count as a score of 0 weights lifted for that attempt. No resets, once the bar has been removed from the rack, the lifter cannot return or jettison the bar until 3 successful reps have been completed otherwise it’s a failed attempt. If a rep is missed i.e., not deep enough or not stood up completely, the lifter can continue to work until 3 reps are judged successful.
Event 2
7 Minutes of Thrusters for max reps (95/65lbs)
Movement standards
* The athlete must squat first with the crease of the hip clearly below the top of the knee and then drive the bar over head into the locked out position with the arms straight and the ear partially or completely showing to the front of the arm from the profile.
* If the bar is dropped at any point the next rep has to be taken from the ground and not caught off a bounce.
Protocol
Each heat will accommodate 10 male athletes and 10 female athletes. Each athlete will have a judge assigned to them. The athletes will stand in front of the bar with out touching it until the command is given to start. On the “GO” the athlete may grab the bar and bring it to the shoulders. The first rep is counted when the athlete first squats below parallel and drives it over head into full lock out; a squat clean to thruster is legitimate. Each rep will be counted at the top of the movement as long as its preceded by a full squat. A rep will not count if it is picked up from the ground via power clean and then push pressed over head. You must squat first, and then drive it over head for a rep. The athletes must stay within the designated area for their station.

So...I haven't had this question answered clearly yet.
Are competitors allowed 1 guest each or does every spectator have to pay the $50?

Scaling is allowed, it just takes you out of contention for 1 of the 15 qualifying spots.
Each competitor is allowed 1 guest free of charge

Chad, a good cross section of exercises and time domains. Nice work!
Good luck to all competitors. Rip it up and enjoy!!

Split jerk it acceptable, as long as you finish with feet together and hips/knees fully extended
We've adopted the 09 Games scoring system 1st place receives 1 point 2nd place receives 2 point ect. Least amount of points wins.

The final WOD looks wicked. I am thinking that many may get a DNF in the time frame does that DQ them from qualifying or how will it work

For the OHS, do we have to jerk it up or can we get under it from the rack and stand up with it from there?

OHS question. If you miss your first set of OHS, can you load less weight on the bar for your 2nd set or is your beginning weight the lowest weight you can use?

Awesome looking workouts.....I am more than a little afraid. I saw the event schedule above, but I was wondering if there is a list of heats? Actually, how many competitors are registered?

Any movement questions that aren't covered in the standards above will be addressed at the event to all athletes.
Saturday heats will likely go on our website by Friday evening but will also be available at the event. All athletes must register/check-in between 8:15 and 9:00am Saturday morning.
