Partner then comes back under the structure, continue in this format till all weight is placed at the other end of the gym. Same partner can scale the structure every time if decided. If the weight is thrown over the top or dropped the team must do 10 burpees each before they can proceed. Teams of two females and scaled division will have a 24" box instead. Athletes may also place weights on top of the box to assist with height if they choose to. Jumping off the top of the structure results in an automatic disqualification.

Pendlay Level One

Are you looking to improve your Olympic Weight Lifting?  Learn from the best at the Pendlay Level One Seminar hosted at Crossfit Ancaster.

This hands on seminar teaches the 3 step and top down method for learning the Olympic lifts. Attendees will have a bar in their hands most of the day. Each step of the learning process of the snatch, clean, and jerk are demonstrated and drilled till attendees are doing the whole lifts correctly. This is followed by an Elite athlete demonstrating the lift done as it should be done at full speed with heavy weight, then attendees work up themselves, with a high percentage normally making new PR's. Attendees should expect to not only be able to do the lifts correctly themselves at the end of the day, but to have learned a simple and easy to understand way to teach others to do the snatch and clean and jerk.
