Some Open Q/A

Q - What is the CrossFit Open?

A - The CrossFit Open is a global community competition in CrossFit that happens in CrossFit Affiliates all over the world.

Q - Should I sign up?

A - Yes you should. It’s a really fun 3 weeks of supportive community competition. We all get together on Saturday mornings for 3 weeks to do the workout that CrossFit gives us to do. There are divisions for everyone from Foundations to RX. Yes we have movement standards that must be reached, it’s a competition, but there is now the foundations division that does allow us to have a little wiggle room to ensure the weights and movements are safe for everyone.

Q - When is it?

A - The open workouts in our facility will be held on Saturday’s. March 1st, March 8th, and March 15th.

Q - I don’t think I’m interested in competing. It seems very scary.

A - You will be surrounded by fellow athletes all encouraging you to do your absolute best. It’s a very cool experience. We’ve been doing past open workouts in classes each week. The biggest difference is you have a judge standing beside you counting your reps and ensuring you meet movement standards. But these judges are your fellow athletes.

What other questions can we answer for you?

For the 3 weeks of the open we have a theme each week, and ask you do dress up, or wear certain colours to match the theme. We decor the gym, and try and set everything up like mini CrossFit events. It truly is a lot of fun. We also encourage you to invite your family to come in a cheer you on, let them see what you do in our facility, etc. Spectators are welcome and encouraged for events like this.
