2 Rep Max Thruster

2 Rep Max Thruster
This is a standard barbell thruster (but 2 Reps in a row) in which the barbell moves from the bottom of a front squat to full lockout overhead in one fluid movement. The bar starts either on the ground or a front rack; a full squat clean into the thruster is allowed when the bar is taken from the floor. The hip crease must clearly pass below the top of the knees in the bottom position. The barbell MAY NOT be dropped from overhead or behind, if the barbell is dropped from overhead it will be a NO REP. The rep is credited when the barbell is locked out overhead, with the hips, knees, and arms fully extended, and the bar directly over the middle of the athlete’s body. The weight must continue to move until lockout. Re-dipping during the press (i.e., performing a jerk) will result in a “no rep”.
