After 16.1 our final registered athlete count is 63 for the Open!

Join us tomorrow at 5PM PST in the lobby for the 16.2 announcement. Rather than use the CF Games website which couldn’t handle the traffic last week, we will Chromecast the announcement on YouTube on the TV this time.

Big thanks to Kenny from SFH who came by for all the PM classes to provide samples and knowledge about Stronger Faster Healthier supplements. If you missed out on samples he will be back soon!

Sean knocking out 16.1 under the outdoor lights.

Who has a sore butt? Thanks to 16.1 there wasn’t any squatting on Saturday. Some cleans and running hopefully loosened things up.

Don’t forget to submit your score if you are signed up for the Open! If you don’t have the CrossFit Games app then download it and you can submit using that and view the leaderboard.

SnoRidge CF_Open 16.1 Announcement

Fri “Day-Night” Lights begins tomorrow.  All day Friday the programmed WOD will be CrossFit Games Open 16.1.

I am running a 3pm class only for tomorrow in addition to the other normal class times. Come ready to rock. Warm up quickly and be patient as this WOD requires logistics that may require some to lunge and burpee outside. If you have knee sleeves you will want to wear them.

Since we need to run two heats in most classes and this is a 2o minute AMRAP there is not much time for warming up since you will be judging and then going.

For workout details on 16.1 go here:

SRCF Semi-Elite Competitive Exerciser Count: 40 Registered

A couple of you are having issues with selecting our affiliate or team in the drop downs. I went through the Affiliate Manager process again with the site so please try again.  If you are still having issues please let me know so I can email CF Games Support to have them try to fix it.

How It Works at SRCF:

Open WOD 16.1 will be announced this Thursday at 5pm and we will have it live on the TV in the lobby. Come join in the excitement/horror at what awaits us all!

The WOD will be programmed on Friday all day for all classes.  Make-ups are to be coordinated in advance so the coach can be prepared for having a judge and any logistics planned. Make-up times can be requested if you are unable to make a Friday class.  You have until Monday at 5pm PST to submit your score correctly.  Don’t be the person that every year does an Open WOD and forgets to submit their score on time and gets a “0” or DNF for the Open.  We will repeat this each week for all 5 weeks of the Open.

“Friday Night Lights”:

Many people choose to complete their Open WOD on Friday in the PM Classes. We encourage people to make that time their fitness festival, their Exerciseapalooza, or their Happy Hour where you can bring some drinks and laugh at everyone else as they freak out prior to doing a workout that is basically what we already do everyday just with different movements, loads and time domains. Meaning CrossFit.

If you are registered then you will be able to choose to perform either the Open WOD as Rx’d or Scaled.  There are two versions. If you choose the RX version you will complete as many RX reps in the specified time. If you cannot get past a certain movement then your official score will stop there. To get a good workout we encourage you to scale from that point to improve your fitness.

If you are choosing the Scaled Open WOD then you must not scale the WOD any further than it is specified to post a valid score. If you cannot get past a certain movement then your official score will stop there. To get a good workout we encourage you to scale even further from that point to improve your fitness.

You will get to decide each week whether you are RX or Scaled.

Class announcement:

During the entire Open we will have a 6am Class time on M/T/W/F and no 6am Thursday class. This will begin this Friday and will allow for Friday and Monday options to complete the Open WOD for the early risers.

Judging for the Open:

How will judging work? As in previous year’s, we will run waves or “heats” with each class.  You will buddy up and one will judge while one completes the WOD.  As a judge your responsibility is to monitor that movement standards, range of motion, and recording the rep count requirements are met. That is your main purpose.

Cheering and pushing your partner along is on you. So long as you hold them to the standard, we absolutely encourage you to motivate your partner (as long as they want that too). When they are not meeting the standard the expectation is that you “no rep” and ensure they adjust.

If you are uncomfortable judging simply let your coach know. You won’t have to judge!

If you want to learn how to be a better judge and develop an eye for range of motion I suggest taking this Online Judges Course from CrossFit.
