From time to time I like to retest previous open workouts during the “off-season”, especially during the fall leading up to open prep time. This provides a good gauge on where your general fitness is at along with also giving you an idea of what your capacity is at in certain movements that are often seen in the open at high volumes.
The above workout could be a good test of fitness for the general population and even a test of strength capacity if the 135lb barbell is something that is challenging for them to lift consistently. With the competitive crowd though I see as more of a test of t2b capacity and grip strength. This is because holding onto the barbell and cycling the C&J wont save a ton of time compared to doing fast singles. I think more time can be made up by holding onto unbroken sets of t2b as long as possible
