Today’s workout leaves the difficulty up to you. The intention is to sprint through the first two movements and have at least 40 seconds on the rower to accumulate calories. The load of the barbell should be on the lighter side of moderate and allow you to perform 3-5+ touch-and-go reps. Fast singles might be the way to go for some. When in doubt, go lighter and move faster. Once you are done with the snatches, get right into the burpees and try not to stop. Can anyone hold 20 calories or more on the rower? Less-experienced athletes should reduce the load of the barbell and number of burpees to give themselves enough time on the rower. Time to go visit the pain cave.

Welcome to the second workout of the 2024 CrossFit Games Quarterfinals! This leg- and lung-burner workout has a 20-minute cap. Those not recording a score for competition should scale accordingly to finish within this time. Advanced athletes should push for sub-13 minutes. Find a wall-ball shot load that allows for 10 or more reps at a time, and push the lateral burpee box jump-overs to get in 10 per minute. Scale as needed to hit these ranges. Those not competing in Quarterfinals should choose challenging variations that still allow for continuous movement. Consider taking short breaks during the wall-ball shots and burpees to help you keep moving throughout the workout. This one will be all about finding the line between pushing the pace and holding on for continuous movement.

Welcome to the fourth and final workout of the 2024 CrossFit Games Quarterfinals! Today's workout is a clean-and-jerk ladder with ascending weights. This is a barbell stamina and conditioning test. The barbell load starts on the lighter side of moderate and builds its way up to relatively heavy. The first barbell should be a weight with which you can perform some touch-and-go reps, while the next three will require a bit more strategy. Consider performing fast singles with minimal rest between reps. If you are not signed up for the Quarterfinals, choose loads that challenge your ability but allow you to complete the reps at the first and second barbell. The third barbell should be tough to get through, and any reps with the fourth barbell should be considered a bonus.
