Write it down Last week we did a 1RM Clean + Jerk, this week a 1RM Front Squat, and we used percentages of those two 1 Rep Max lifts to lift off in our workouts. How many of you wrote those numbers down, in a book? If we asked you, your numbers how many of you would know them?   If we asked you what your Jackie time is? If we do a benchmark like Grace what weight do you use? How you break up a workout like Karen? We're sure some of you are able to rhyme them off without a hesitation, or some can even head over to the bookshelf or your bag to grab their WOD book and look them up.   As ..read more

After nearly 20 years working for CrossFit HQ, Tyson who was a huge part of CrossFit media and the story telling in CrossFit had his position eliminated.

Costly We talk about standards a lot. Both in our regular classes and when it comes to the competition side. If you follow the competition side of CrossFit you will have seen on Thursday morning that the leaderboard for quarterfinals has had some big shake ups with some of the top athletes in the world having scores adjusted for the standards on at least workout 1, in the step ups that we know of right now, for their heads not being in line with their entire body.
