Mobility Before the Storm

The 2017 CrossFit Games Open begins tonight at 7 bells. We will watch the open announcement at 7 and then anyone that wants to take on Open Workout 17.1 first in the world we will be getting it on after the announcement! If you have not signed up yet and are planning to participate please get it done now. We had a few people wait until the last minute last year and good things did not happen. Click the link https://games.crossfit.com/ to get registered. Friday will be Open Workout all day and then Sunday at high noon for any retesters. Time to see if my programming works or if I need to find another day job!
Happy Open Everyone!!!
Thanks for all the input friends... I'm signing up!

Well folks it's here. The ultimate test of all the hard work you've put in. The Open. No matter what comes up tonight and the next 5 weeks just give it your all, and remember: I like to think we all have a little Rick in all our hearts.

If you are a complete CF noob, aren't competitive etc and won't be qualifying for anything at all... Is it worth signing up for The Open?
Kate Mantz 2:38AM on Feb 23, 2017
Absolutely! You will push yourself harder than you ever had and you'll finish each workout with a great sense of pride knowing you put in all that damn work to feel like death after! 😜
Antonia Shanle 2:58AM on Feb 23, 2017
Yes!! Basically the whole gym is going to be doing it for the next 5 weeks and everyone has a great time talking and dying together :)

It's fun, and being registered changes the intensity. The first time I did it I was dubious, but I felt it was worth my $20...and it always pushes you to try something new. Take it from one of the least competitive people in the box.

SOLD, plus Krystal putting "included" in quotes seems fairly ominous and leads me to believe that not signing up may lead to............"EXCLUSION"
Brett Kohout 4:23AM on Feb 23, 2017
Lol disclaimer that you will not be "excluded" if you don't sign up. But there's so much excitement around the Open, it's fun to be part of it.😉
Krystal Lowney 4:53AM on Feb 23, 2017
Absolutely sign up. First you're going to have to do the workouts on Friday anyway. Second, it's great way to track progress year over year. Finally it's a great way to increase your competitive spirit in a non-stressful environment
RaLinda Lamberies 4:59AM on Feb 23, 2017
Yup do it Kate! It's just fun to be "included".
Krystal Lowney 12:39PM on Feb 23, 2017
I messaged Crossfit HQ the same question and they wrote me back.
Chris Ness 4:16AM on Feb 23, 2017
cln32@crossfitgames what is the actual benefit of doing the open if your going to have to do RX and scaled? You can't qualify for anything. You will be doing the workouts at the box anyway. crossfitgames@cln32 it's a challenge. There are some athletes that push just a little bit harder when they are officially in a competition. They have options that allow them to do their best

I came. I saw. I whined about stuff.
But I also did DB step ups with 35s for the first time ever and did not die.

Be as disciplined about your bar path on the way down as you are with your bar path on the way up.
