With a continuously running clock, it will not stop between exercises, perform the following movements:
5 minutes of Push Ball (20#/14#)
3 minutes of Overhead Squats (75#/53#)
30 DB Step ups, 20 inch box (50#/35#)
50 Box Jumps, 20 inch box
With the overhead squats, you can rest the bar anywhere on your person but it must not touch the floor or be rested on anything else in the gym. You can rest it behind the neck, in the front squat rack position, in the hang, or even in the crease of the hip but if it touches the floor or is rested on anything else other than your body, your accumulated reps are erased and you start back at rep one.
For the step ups, if you need to scale the load, you are only allowed to drop to 45#/30# or 40#/25# but if you do, your reps for step ups increases to 35 and 40, respectively. You must also have both feet on the box with fully extended hip and knee joints, as you would for a completed box jump for each rep to count.
You can find your score by converting how long it takes you to complete the step ups and box jumps (final time minus 8 minutes) into seconds and subtracting that number from your total push ball and overhead squat reps. You are looking for a number that is closest to 0 (zero) if not a positive number.
For example, if you score 200 reps but the step ups and box jumps takes you 5 minutes to complete (300 seconds), your score is -100.

Only on the overhead squats must you not let the bar touch the ground.
255 seconds - 202 reps (151 push balls + 51 OHS) = 53
correct me if i'm wrong, seems to end up the same just negative...
Your math was right.
Jason Brilz is the only one to finish in the positive so far with 27. He completed 210 reps and finished the workout in 11:03 (183 seconds).
210 reps - 183 seconds = 27
142 Push Balls (12#)
33 OH Squats (65#)
35 DB Step Ups (45#)
50 Box Jumps (20")
Finished in 14:31
