Movements

Understand the task

Each round pairs an 800 m run with 30 dumbbell squat cleans and 30 burpees. Across the session that is 2,400 m of running and 90 repetitions of each other movement.

Pacing and setup

Do not turn the first run into a standalone test. Keep the dumbbell cleans technically consistent and choose planned sets before the burpees amplify fatigue.

Score your session

Record elapsed time from the start to the final completed repetition, including transitions and prescribed rest. If you stop at a training cap, record the work completed instead of a finishing time. Keep the stated movement order and any special rules shown in the programme.

Prepare and adapt

Warm up progressively, then rehearse the listed movements and transitions with lighter loads or easier variations. Choose scaling before the clock starts: adjust load, repetitions, distance or movement difficulty to create a task you can complete with control. These adaptations change the prescription, so record them beside your score.

For a useful retest, repeat the same equipment, distances, loads and movement standards. A result from a scaled version is a training record in its own right; it is not directly interchangeable with the full prescribed task.
