For time:
Run 800 meters
21 thrusters
21 L pull-ups
Men use 75 lb. for the thruster.
Women use 55 lb. for the thruster.
The L pull-ups are pull-ups with the legs extended straight out in front of the body. Any pull-up where the heels fall below the butt or the legs bend other than slightly is disallowed.
Where necessary, the load for the thrusters may be reduced and the L pull-ups can be assisted by gently lifting the heels of allowing a “sloppy L.” For those not able to perform a pull-up, as assisted pull-up device may be used.
