*score is total reps: clean & jerks + squats

*continuous movement, very little pause at the top or bottom, switch hands whenever you want goal is to choose a weight that you can consistently hit 20-26 reps in around 1:15, but is very challenging to do so, focusing on cycling the DB efficiently, if you can keep going unbroken for too much more than 1:15 than you need to get a heavier weight

*remember there are weights in between levels, choose the weight that allows you to get the stimulus

*steady pace on the air squats, how consistent can you be with a body weight movement under fatigue?
