Q:  Does everyone have to do all the kettlebell swings or can we have our strongest member do all reps for the heavier weight?
 
A:  For this challenge, the kettlebell swings should be divided up equally among team members and each team member must do all three weight levels.

Q:  Do we choose which height of box to do the step-ups or do we have to complete all of them at all of the different heights?

A:  The latter.  Your team must complete all of the step-ups at the various heights. 

----


Q:  Can the kettlebell swings be Russian or do they have to go overhead?

A:  Ideally, they should all go over your head, head through the window.  Having said that, I realize that 45/53 may be a weight that you NEVER attempt.  If that's the case, you may do Russian kettlebell swings on the heavy weight with the goal of working up to a full swing.

 
3, 2, 1...Go!
