The 2014 CrossFit Open officially begins tomorrow (Thursday Feb 27) @ 5:00 PM. The first workout, 14.1, will be announced live streaming on the CrossFit Games website. The workout will be explained and then some of the worlds top CrossFit athletes will perform the workout in a head to head live showdown.
What this means to you…
The first thing is to sign up! I don’t care if you are new to the gym, elderly, achy, off your best game, or ready to crus every workout into oblivion and qualify for regionals. The Open is about participation. It’s a huge community event for our gym to have everyone participate in a regulated and organized event. Remember, excuses are like assholes. Just remember that the only requirement is to have fun. The only reason you should not participate is if you don’t know how to have fun.
6 Steps to competing properly:
1) Sign Up and claim CrossFit East Sacramento as your home gym.
2) Watch the workout standards/demo video each week on Games.CrossFit.com
3) Download and print your own score card from the games website (same place as the video)
4) Check in with a coach regarding correct movement standards and attack plan.
5) Grab a buddy to judge you and do the WOD the best you can.
*potential team competitors/individual qualifiers/masters top 200’s must use a certified judge
6) Enter your own score BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE GYM, and turn in your score card to me for validation. Be sure your card is filled out completely and correctly.
DO NOT LEAVE THE GYM WITHOUT ENTERING YOUR SCORE.
most every score error was because people get home and forget their score or their judges name.
WODs are announced on Thursday evenings and you have until the following Monday at 5PM to perform the WOD and enter a score. If you will be travailing, plan to correctly film your WOD, or find another CrossFit Affiliate to perform the WOD at.
