The CrossFit Open

You’ve heard us mention the CrossFit Open a few times now, and if you’re newer to us, or newer to CrossFit you might be lost as to what we’ve been talking about.

The CrossFit Open is the first stage to getting to the CrossFit Games. Once again this year it will be a 3 week event and will kick off with the announcement on Feb 16th. For us we’ll be doing the workouts on Saturday’s in the facility, so it will be Feb 18th for the first workout.

You can sign up at games.crossfit.com it costs $20 US to sign up with CrossFit. You select CrossFit Indestri as your affiliate, and beginning the week of Feb 16th for 3 weeks CrossFit will announce what the workout is each Thursday night, and you have until the following Monday to submit your score online.

As mentioned, we will be doing the workouts as a group on Saturday mornings. You have a judge standing beside you counting your reps and ensuring that movement standards are met.

The CrossFit Open is a magic time! As affiliate owners and coaches it’s a time when we get to see you push yourself past what you thought you could do. The camaraderie that surrounds the open is part of the magic as well. The Open for us has been a little different for the past few years with COVID protocols, so we’re looking forward to this year.

There are different divisions, from RX to Scaled. You can wait right up until the workout to decide which version of that workout you will do.

The CrossFit Open is chance for every CrossFit Athlete in the world to compete with their communities alongside the Fittest in the world. The old slogan for the open was, From Fittest to First-Timer, we all start together.

Of course you don’t have too sign up, but it is a lot of fun and we recommend it. Especially this year, it also gives you a goal to work towards, more motivation to keep training and keep moving.

So, visit games.crossfit.com and get yourself signed up!
If you have any questions shoot us a message, the chances are someone else is wondering the same thing.

While the CrossFit Open is the first stage in the quest to find the fittest in the world. The magic of the open is that we can all take part. We’ll leave you with this video today.
