Movements

Understand the task

Do five burpees at 0:00 and again at each new minute until the hundredth thruster is complete. Only thrusters contribute to the total of 100.

Pacing and setup

Choose a thruster load and task size that leave time to make progress between burpee sets. Set a practical training cap with your coach before starting rather than continuing indefinitely.

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.
