Today was rough. The rope climbs took their toll. Traps are still sore from the cleans earlier in the week. And triceps never seem to recover.
At least with the crew all down in Toronto for Regionals I get a 3 day break.
We worked up to WOD weight on the push jerk. Which I can't really do very well, so I did the split jerk instead.
I couldn't go heavier than 95# (which I have push press in a WOD in the past, but I digress)
The WOD was 5 rounds for time
5 push jerks
10 burpees.
Wasn't fun, but it's done. 11:48
Earlier this year they held the Crossfit Open. Anyone in the world can compete. You either validate your workout at a registered Crossfit Gym or submit video of you workout. The open is 5 workouts over 5 weeks. (Open workouts are typically AMRAP, since they are easier to grade and rank the athletes) The top 60 from each region advance to regionals. Here is the workout schedule for regionals (announced in advance because not all regional competitions are on the same day so to make it fair for everyone they revealed the workouts ahead of time for everyone).
Top three men and top three women from each region advance to the Crossfit Games.
There is also a team event, which is either everyone on the team does to WOD, slowest time counts, or relay style. Some exercises are paired, like "partner deadlifts" where two athletes lift the very heavy bar together.
