Athletes start kneeling behind the designated start line. Athletes hold a 6-pound medicine ball with both hands at the center of the torso; the medicine ball in contact with body. Perform a chest pass for maximal distance, using both hands and a two-handed release. Distance from the start line to where the ball initially contacts the ground is recorded. You must maintain contact with both knees in the kneeling stance during the toss and release the ball with both hands; or that toss will be disqualified. You may fall forward and touch the ground beyond the start line with any part of the body after the ball is released. If toss is disqualified, the judge will call out “Bad Toss” and the measurement will not be counted for an official score. Each of two attempts is recorded. Best of the two attempts is circled and scored. Athletes must initial their scores before leaving the test area. Read less

Standing over the medicine ball, you’ll set yourself up to pick the ball off the ground, and then up over your shoulder (must come above and over shoulder), allowing the ball to land behind you. Repeat this motion for a total of 10 reps as fast as you can. You may need to treat this movement more like picking up an atlas stone, where you pick it up to load yourself in a squat position, and then roll the ball up to your shoulder as your legs and hips extend. Your score is your time to complete 10 good reps. Men’s med ball weight: 80 lbs Women’s med ball weight: 40 lbs Read less

Test monitors will blow the whistle and call the wave (shown by a letter written on your bib) to the start, designating time to line up in your pre-assigned lane (shown by a number written on your bib. It is extremely important to only line up in your designated lane, even though there may be empty lanes due to competitors who did not show up on event day; it must be in the correct lane to receive the right score. Start in a static position behind start line in whatever position you choose, though three-point stance is recommended. Listen for the firing of the auditory start pistol; timing starts when it is fired. If your foot crosses the start line before the auditory start pistol is fired, you will be disqualified. If there is an electronic failure or false start in the run group, the entire group will be reset for another race start. If you or anyone false starts a second time, he or she will be disqualified. Your finish time is captured electronically as well as photographically and is measured when your torso crosses the finish line. You will get one attempt, which is recorded in seconds and to two decimal points by the Timing System Director and the official computerized system. Read less

Note: You will need to know and be able to perform the pattern of the pro agility shuttle test prior to the start. Athletes are responsible for knowing and being able to perform the pattern of the Pro Agility Shuttle Test prior to the start of the competition. They may ask for help at anytime in the preparation area before the competition starts and will receive a brief review at station. The test begins with the athlete straddling the center start/finish line with one hand on the line. It is suggested that athletes choose to start in the direction opposite to their dominant hand and foot with the dominant hand on the line. From that position the athlete starts the test by lifting their hand from the line and running 5 yards in one direction and touches the line with the hand that matches the chosen direction (ex: athlete runs to right side line and touches hand with right hand). The athlete should always be facing the judge at each change of direction. Then the athlete runs 10 yards the opposite direction touching the far line with the hand that matches that direction, then back 5 yards running through the start/finish line. The athlete must touch the line on the ground with the hand matching the direction they are running at each change of direction on the far ends but does not have to touch the hand to the line at the finish. The timing judge will start the time when the athlete lifts hand from line at the start and stops the time when any part of the torso crosses the finish line. The athlete must immediately reset for the second attempt. The best of the two timed scores is recorded for the final score. If an athlete does not run the correct pattern or fails to touch any required lines, that attempt will not be scored and the athlete will only have the one attempt to receive a final score. Athletes must initial to accept the scores before leaving the testing station. Read less

Athletes starts standing behind the marked line, with their hands on the weighted sled. When ready, athletes push the sled a total distance of 20 yards, with the sled passing beyond the marked line. The athlete then picks up two kettlebells and farmer carry’s them back 20 yards to where they started. The athlete must set down the kettlebells beyond the marked line, turn around and sprint back 20 yards. Time to complete these three 20 yard movements is your score.

Start in a static position at the start line with your entire body behind the line. Cones are placed at interval levels of 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, and 34 yards from the start line. A single timing judge placed at the start line will begin the run with a whistle. Run to the first cone (level 1 at 16 yards) and touch the line with your foot. Turn and run back, crossing the start/finish line with any part of your body. You will hear a whistle that finishes the run attempt at level 1 and designates the start of the 10-second rest period to return to the start position. The timing judge will then whistle to start the next interval (level 2 at 18 yards). Each interval must be completed in ten seconds by crossing the finish line with some part of your body. You will progress through each interval until you fail to cross the finish line before the ten second whistle. Score is the last level completed (1-10+). If you complete level 10, continue at repeating level 10 for additional points (so a score of 11, 12, etc., is possible) until you reach failure. You must initial your score for the judge before you leave the testing area. Read less
