Every 3 mins, ascending: 2 rounds of 10 Overhead Squats (95/65 lb) + 10 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups, then 2 rounds of 12+12, 14+14... Continue while you complete each 3-minute window's work; score is total reps.
Primary movement: OHS/C2B
Open 14.2 introduced the interval-elimination format: three-minute windows of overhead squats and chest-to-bar pull-ups whose reps grow every window, until the window you can't finish - which is where your workout simply ends. Repeated as 15.2, it's a rising-water test: the early windows leave generous rest, the middle ones leave seconds, and the final one takes everything. C2B capacity is almost always the executioner.
| Level (Reps) | Men | Women |
|---|---|---|
| beginner | 40 (window 1) | 40 |
| intermediate | 88 (window 2) | 80 |
| advanced | 140 (window 3) | 130 |
| elite | 200+ | 180+ |
Total reps across completed windows.
Bank rest, not speed, in the early windows: finish with 60+ seconds and stand still - that oxygen is your round-of-14 entry fee. OHS unbroken always (a drop costs a snatch back up). Fraction the C2B before they fraction you: 6-4 in the round of 10 feels overly cautious and is exactly right. The workout ends for everyone; make the final window a fight over singles, not a spectator period.
Scaled: front squats (65/45) and chin-over-bar pull-ups in the same growing windows.
