Break up or combine the movements any way as long as the following rules are met:

  • NO RESTING ON THE GROUND (even to re-grip) during each round.
  • Power Cleans starts at the ground and finishes standing with full hip extension.
  • Squat Cleans or DeadLifting to Hang Power Cleans are acceptable.
  • The squats have to go BELOW parallel.
  • Presses finish with lockout overhead, Push Jerks are acceptable.
  • Combining Front Squat and Push Press (i.e. Thrusters) is acceptable but if Squat Clean method is used, one must stand first before doing Thrusters.
