2014 REGIONAL & GAMES ATHLETES
1.  Barbell
"Macho Man"
EMOM for as long as possible
3 Power Cleans, 185/135
3 Front Squats, 185/135
3 Jerks, 185/135

This is the equal but opposite test of the "Bergeron Beep Test" we did on Monday.  Compare scores (they should be similar) to determine your strengths and weaknesses.  My contention is that an athlete who can get 16+ on BOTH tests has the work capacity to qualify for The Games.  These tests say very little about an athlete's maximal strength, endurance, speed, Olympic lifting, high skill gymnastics, game-day mental toughness or their capacity across modal domains.  In other words, a score of 16+ on both tests isn't enough to determine if an athlete has what it takes to compete at the Games, but it does speak to the fact they have the work capacity to compete at that level.  

BTW, Rich Froning did 20+ rounds with 205#.

2.  Gymnastics 
100 Pull ups for time
