Pretty rare to see Inov-8's on sale!
What moves and time domain will make up OPEN WOD 1?
I'm thinking AMRAP
Box Jumps
Push Press
Burpees
If you haven't registered for the OPEN yet, What are you waiting for? After you sign up, don't forget to Join Team Apex!
Do they post it the night before the date they say or the day of??
I just hope its not DUs like last time.... Knowing my luck though, it will be for time: 200DUs, 100Wall Balls. CANT WAIT!
The Rules state...Posting will happen on Wed @ 1700 pst- and must be submitted on Sunday @1700pst. Athletes will have 96 hours to complete the WOD and have their scores validated.
It doesn't look like I'll be able to get a trial run in on Wednesday
I thought I had registered a couple weeks ago, but it doesn't look like it took. Keith can you verify that I made the Apex cut?
As for a prediction for OPEN WOD 1: If history is to repeats itself, wod 1 (and even 2) will be 'doable' by most. Push ups, wall balls, maybe some light deadlift. Then by wod 3, they'll throw in a game changer (heavy squat C&J, anyone??)
But we all know that this is crossfit, and history probably WON'T repeat itself (unknown, unknowable). So my prediction is something game-defining right out of the gate like a thruster ladder (yikes) or heavy back squats (shutter). Hey, but I'd be happy with some situps and 200m sprints! It's anyone's guess.
I predict a 21-15-9 with two moves like wall balls and push ups or box jumps and push press. Something simple and doable.
I'm getting nervous just reading these ideas.....
What I want (please don't send me death threats):
AMRAP: HSPU, Pistol, Burpee
What I think we'll get:
AMRAP: Cleans, Wall Ball
I think they'll come out making you think history is repeating itself, then BAM!! hit you with something just when you least expect it!
So against my better judgment I went an signed up for this thing! But the more I think about it the more I want to try and just have fun with it since I'm aware I won't be able to complete many of the wods rx. Which leads me to my question- If I can't do a movement rx is it better to scale it or fail it compeletly? Also how does that translate as far as scoring?
Bekah- I say you try your best to do everything RX. You have come along way and I bet you really will suprise yourself during the open!
Thanks for the vote of confidence Kurt. Guess I just have to wait and see what they throw at us!
Good Luck Everyone! See you all in March.
Russ we miss you brotha.
Dan I am with you after reading all of these comments I am getting nervous too. What the heck could they throw at us that we haven't done before, nothing is my guess for the OPEN. Why the heck should we all be so nervous. Oh Wait like I tell all of you prior to a wod, that feeling of nervousness is good because you never know how a certain wod will feel.
Hey why not just do Fran as wod1? Thats simple thrusters and pull ups....God I hope not:/
