Touch and go is permitted. No bouncing. The athlete must pass through a full squat with hips below knees. The barbell must come to full lockout overhead with the hips, knees and arms fully extended, and the bar directly over the heels.

One round includes a squat clean and a jerk. You must complete the squat clean before moving on to the jerk and you must complete the jerk before moving on to the next squat clean. If you miss a jerk you may power clean the bar to set up your jerk attempt. You will enter your result by the number of rounds completed, plus an additional squat clean if the final round is incomplete.

CrossFit Battlefield’s Coach A squatting 430lbs.
20 minutes – as many rounds as possible of 5 thrusters, 7 hanging power cleans, 10 sumo deadlifts all at 95 lbs. Warm-up consisted of a one mile run in the desert heat (100+ degrees) and the everyday cooldown of 100 sit-ups. I only managed 5 rounds of this beast. I was hoping for 6 or 7 but this is another bodywrecker.

Leave your tights, weightlifting shoes and iPods at the door. In this camp, your name doesn’t go on the whiteboard. It goes on your plain white T-shirt. This is SEALFIT’s Kokoro Camp. “The idea is to just get them completely out of their comfort zone,” says SEALFIT founder Mark Divine. On the line to accept that challenge are CrossFitters including Mikko Salo, Kristan Clever, Rob Orlando, Tommy Hackenbruck, Caity Henniger, Jimi Letchford and original firebreather Greg Amundson. “We don’t just try to hurt these people physically; we teach them,” Divine says. “We teach them how to be mentally tough, teach them how to be leaders, how to be good team players, and we try through a crucible experience to elicit their warrior spirit.” In Part 2, training takes the athletes to the beach for some full-body submersions, push-ups into the oncoming surf, partner drags and carries, and plenty of running. Can the crew make it through Day 1? “Right now, all I’m thinking is that this is the warm-up and it hasn’t even gotten hard yet. That’s all I’m telling myself. It’s going to get worse,” Hackenbruck says.
