*TRI-FITNESS EVENTS
FITNESS SKILLS
The Fitness Skills Event consists of three exercises designed to test the strength and skill of each athlete. As you can see, they aren’t easy!!
Box Jumps
This event will be performed using a 20 inch box. The athletes will jump 50 repititions. Both feet must land on top of the box. This is a timed event.
Bench Press
This event will be performed using 60 percent of the athlete’s body weight. Weight will be rounded off to the closest 5 pounds. If the weight falls in the exact middle between 2 weights then the highest weight will be used. The athlete will bench press the weight by fully extending both arms and lowering the bar to the athlete’s chest.
Shuttle Run
The athlete will pick up 10 tennis balls and place them in a riser 20 feet away. Only one ball at a time will be picked up. This is a timed event.
Scoring
The scoring will be done by adding up the repetitions for the box jump and bench press. The total number of balls picked up during the Shuttle Run will be multiplied by 3 and added to the total repetitions of the other 2 events. The sum of the 3 events will be divided by 10. This will be the athlete’s final score.
FITNESS FLOOR ROUTINE
To give you a general idea of what I’ll be doing in the Fitness Routine event here are the WTF rules:
The athlete will perform a maximum 2-minute routine. They will be judged on strength moves, flexibility, endurance, choreography and overall performance and presentation.
Each routine must consist of at least 2 Strength and 2 Flexibility moves.
Routines may include aerobics, gymnastics, cheerleading, martial arts or other demonstrations of athletic talents.
Props are allowed, but athlete must be able to carry their prop on and off stage.
The stage will consist of a 20′ x 40′ area. A gymnastics floor will be used for all major competitions.
The scoring will be done on a 10 point system. The high and low scores will be dropped and the overall score will be based on the average of the remaining scores.
OBSTACLE COURSE
The Obstacle Course is the ultimate test for any athlete.
The course is comprised of:
- A 10 foot Wall

- Incline/Decline Monkey
- Bars
- Balance Beam

The competition is either 130 yards or 150 yards depending on the running surface. Beach competitions are 130 yards while football fields and indoor are 150 yardsThe scoring will be done on the 10 point system. The athlete’s time will be subtracted from 200 and divided by 16 to get a final score.
GRACE & PHYSIQUE
The athlete will present themselves to the judges in a 2-piece swimsuit with heels not to exceed 4 inches. Quarter turns will be directed by the head judge. The judges will score each athlete by assessing the degree of firmness, symmetry, proportion, overall physical appearance, poise and presentation.
