See notes below!!

NOTES
The official weight is in pounds. For your convenience, the minimum acceptable weights in kilograms for the barbells are 34 kg (75 lb), 43 kg (95 lb), 47 kg (105 lb), and 61 kg (135 lb).

Prior to starting, set up the floor plan as shown.
Athletes may begin with either movement. All athletes will start standing tall at the side of the barbell facing away from it. After the call of “3, 2, 1 … go,” move to the rings or the barbell and begin accumulating reps.
You may switch movements at any time. Your score will be the total number of repetitions completed before the 5-minute time cap.
Athletes must complete the minimum number of repetitions (the minimum varies by division) for both thrusters and muscle-ups for any repetitions above the minimums to count.
If the designated minimum is not achieved for one movement, any reps above the minimum of the other movement will not count.
For example, a 35-year-old athlete has a minimum of 15/15 and completes:
• 5 muscle-ups – Minimum NOT completed. • 27 thrusters – 12 reps above the minimum.

– The thrusters will be adjusted to 15 ; the minimum for the muscle-ups was not met.

• Total score = 20(5 muscle-ups + 15 thrusters)

TIEBREAK
Note the time when the required minimum of BOTH the thrusters and muscle-ups (65+ women: chest-to-bar pull-ups) are completed.
In the event of a tie on total reps, the athlete who completed the minimums of both movements faster will win the tie.
