“Crossfit Total”
Back Squat, 1 rep
Shoulder Press, 1 rep
Deadlift, 1 rep
The CrossFit Total reflects an athlete’s functional strength capacity more accurately than any other test, writes Mark Rippetoe. It is the sum of the best of three attempts at the squat, the press, and the deadlift. They are not technique-dependent to the extent of the Olympic lifts, yet they require technical proficiency beyond mere passing familiarity. They are safe when performed correctly, since they can all be performed without spotters—alone in a garage if necessary.
The first attempt would be a weight you know you can do for a heavy set of three. The second attempt would be a weight you know without any doubt that you could do for a single, having just done the first attempt. Finally, the third attempt is the weight you want to do, based on your performance on the previous two attempts.

Thanks Norm! You guys were great, nice work today.
I worked out after you left:
Every minute on the minute: 4 burpees to 100 push press
Pregnancy caveat: Rest one minute for every two minutes
I know this sounds ridiculously complex.
