Workouts & Tests
2024 Masters Euros — Test 1: Endurance
Every 7:30 (or 8:00) for 3-4 rounds, descending calories:
- 35/27 → 20/12 cal SkiErg
- 800 m Run
- 35/27 → 20/12 cal Row
Rounds and caps vary by age group (cap 24-30 min). Score is the slowest round time (or unfinished cals/meters if capped).
Each interval athletes ski, run 800 m, then row, resting any time left in the window. Calorie requirements drop each round while the run stays 800 m; the slowest completed round is the score.
Athletes must stay on each machine until all calories are complete. The run is on an outdoor track. Snapping the rower/ski handle back deliberately draws a 10-second / 5-cal penalty.

2024 Masters Euros — Test 2: Strength
4 rounds — in 2 minutes:
- 12 Double KB Hang-to-Overhead (24/16 kg) _(single-arm KB variants for older groups)_
- In the remaining time, find a 1-rep-max Clean & Jerk
1 min rest between rounds. Score is the total of the heaviest Clean & Jerk from each of the 4 rounds.
Each 2-minute round athletes clear their kettlebell hang-to-overhead reps then build to a max clean & jerk in the time left, resting 1 minute between rounds; the four best jerks are summed.
Athletes may perform a hang kettlebell snatch or hang KB clean + shoulder-to-overhead. Single-KB divisions finish all 6 reps on one arm before switching. Own-weight changes; a no-rep for dropping the bar behind. Deliberately dropping the kettlebell from above the knee deducts 5 kg.

2024 Masters Euros — Test 3: Bodyweight
3-4 rounds for time (cap 12 min), athlete-chosen pairing:
- 18/16 reps of Movement 1
- 14/12 reps of Movement 2
- 10/8 reps of Movement 3
Movements: Chest-to-Bar Pull-ups, Box Jumps (60/50 cm), Handstand Push-ups. Athletes assign each movement to a rep count before starting. Older groups: Pull-ups / Step-Ups / Hand-Release Push-ups.
Athletes pick which of the three movements gets the high, middle and low rep count (fixed for the whole test) and cycle them highest-to-lowest each round, advancing the box after every round.
All box jumps/step-ups require stepping down (no rebounding). The chosen movement-to-rep pairing is locked at heat check-in and cannot change round to round. The box must be moved forward at the end of every round.
