Grace WOD timer
Grace is thirty clean and jerks for time. One movement, one barbell, nothing to hide behind: it is a test of how efficiently you can cycle a barbell while your grip and lungs argue with you.

How it works
- Start the stopwatch and complete thirty clean and jerks.
- Stop the clock on the thirtieth rep.
- Singles with a steady rhythm beat fast sets followed by a long stare at the bar.
- Drop from the top rather than lowering the bar if your gym allows it; lowering costs more than people think.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a good Grace time?
- Under five minutes is a solid benchmark for most people and the elite end is around a minute and a half. As with Fran, the number only means something next to your own previous attempt at the same weight.
- What weight should I use?
- No prescribed weights here on purpose. They vary by source, by scaling and by who is asking, and this is a timer rather than a coach. Use whatever your gym programmes, and keep it the same next time so the comparison means something.
- Singles or sets?
- For most people, consistent singles win. The clean and jerk is expensive to cycle, and the time lost standing over the bar after a set of five is usually larger than the time that set saved.
