CF Games Open:

We are up to 40 people registered for the Open! If you are planning to register still you can click the widget right there on the right side of this page and make it happen.

How will it work?
Starting Thursday, Feb. 26th the CF Games will announce the first Open WOD for the week at 5pm. Every following Thursday for the next four weeks CFHQ will announce the subsequent workouts (for a total of 5 WOD’s). All Open WOD announcements will be broadcast live to the interwebs and streamed on Thursday at 5pm and we will plan to have it on the TV in the lobby for all to come watch in dread and horror.
On Friday of each of the 5 weeks of the Open (Feb. 26 – Mar. 30) the Open WOD will be the workout that we program for our gym. This is our “Friday All-Day & Night Lights”! If you are signed up to compete in the Open make sure you rest on Thursday and hit the workout in any Friday class. We will also be adding a 4pm Friday class to help with the crowd (this class will start on Feb. 27th).
If you aren’t signed up don’t worry just come prepared as usual to workout, but expect the energy level to be high, that some classes will need to run heats to have judges for those registered, and that you will be expected to cheer people on. This time of year is a blast as the whole CrossFit community rallies in their respective gyms to tackle the Open and push one another to challenge their limits.
“Friday All-Day & Night Lights” Open Schedule:

  • 15.1 Announcement on Thursday 2/26 at 5pm. SRCF will program this WOD on Friday 2/27.
  • 15.2 Announcement on Thursday 3/5 at 5pm. SRCF will program this WOD on Friday 3/6.
  • 15.3 Announcement on Thursday 3/12 at 5pm. SRCF will program this WOD on Friday 3/13.
  • 15.4 Announcement on Thursday 3/19 at 5pm. SRCF will program this WOD on Friday 3/20.
  • 15.5 Announcement on Thursday 3/26 at 5pm. SRCF will program this WOD on Friday 3/27.
    • Score submission for registered athletes due each Monday NLT 5pm.
    • Make sure you REMEMBER to submit your score EACH WEEK by the deadline. Every year people are eliminated for simply forgetting to submit their score in time.

Note:
We will have limited Saturday make-ups at 10:45am only for registered competitors who could not make it in on Friday (subject to judge availability). You can also make up the Open WOD on Monday’s at the AM classes. If you can make to any class on Friday please do it then. If you have circumstances that prevent that then please coordinate with us in advance!
No make-ups for anyone who hasn’t registered. Right now we have 40 who are registered and it will grow.
Final Note(s):
Only under extreme circumstances do we encourage or allow someone to repeat an Open WOD. Think you have a shot at making it to Regionals or the next level of the Masters? Then you should already know who you are, have a plan around filming your WOD’s (if you don’t know this then you probably aren’t going to the next level), and know when and why you would want to request to repeat a WOD. Don’t expect to “redo” it just because you want 5 more reps and it feels good today or you want to go since someone else is making it up. We have to make arrangements and adjustments to line up judges/change the schedule and simply wanting to wait an extra day or get 3 more wall balls isn’t going to cut it. Think of the Open as “One and Done” and it will be a more enjoyable experience for all.
If you want to be a better judge during the Open then please consider taking the Online Judges Course.
Last, submit your score ON TIME. I do not want to chase you down for 5 weeks. Be responsible and manage this for yourself.

Deadlift 3-3-3 & Diane: Deadlifts and Handstand Push-ups

Kelby_DL

Deadlift 3-3-3

Deadlift 3-3-3

Choose:

“Diane”

21-15-9 reps, for time of:
Deadlift (225#/155#)
Handstand Push-up

* Choose “Diane” or other version with different rep scheme.

15-12-9-6-3: Deadlifts and Handstand Push-ups

15-12-9-6-3 reps, for time of:
Deadlift (225#/155#)
Handstand Push-up

BTWB 

Today was a choice of metabolic conditioning workouts. You could go with the classic CrossFit benchmark “Diane” (one of the Girls), or complete the same amount of work but in a different rep scheme of 15-12-9-6-3 of each.  Why?  Because “Diane” can be a huge challenge for many when the initial set of 21 is completed. With the handstand push-ups suddenly exhausted, the WOD transitions suddenly drag out and you find yourself standing there shaking out your arms wondering how you will get another one. By splitting the reps into sets with a more manageable scheme, it keeps you moving.

The Open announcement match-ups and locations have been announced (see below link). While none will be here in the Puget Sound this year, the match-ups are intriguing and the first week kicks it off with Froning vs. Fraser.

Congrats goes to a couple of SnoRidge Squatchers:

Jules competed this past weekend on Saturday in her first Olympic Lifting meet, going 5/6 on her lifts (snatch and C&J) in front a packed house in Tacoma. On Sunday she competed in the CF Teens Gauntlet hosted by CF Bellevue and finished tied for 2nd. After the weekend Gauntlet results are tallied across the country (it was held at multiple locations) she is ranked tied 1st overall in her age division (Varsity Female)!

Michelle M. attended and completed the CrossFit Movement and Mobility Seminar at CF Belltown. She is now ready to offer self-torture tips and techniques to anyone in the gym! Pick her brain and get your mobi on.

CF Games:

We now have 18 people signed up for the Open. Let’s keep that number growing.   We are 15 days away! In addition to our usual strength and Olympic Lift programming and bodyweight skill work; our daily WOD will continue to focus on conditioning designed for higher intensity intervals, max efforts or reps, varied time domains and movements in tough combinations we will likely encounter during the Open. In other words, CrossFit…
