CrossFit Open 2015 – Test your fitness.

Posted 18th February 2015 by Josh Schouten

At Momentum Training we are all about working hard toward making ourselves just that little bit better. That time of year is here… The CrossFit games 2015 is here to test us. 

Why does it matter and what do I care?

I (Josh) might be known for the outrageous comments and laid back approach to coaching but when it comes to testing myself and improving upon my goals I’m all in. The CrossFit Open is a time for you to benchmark your fitness level annually against the rest of the world and more importantly yourself! If you never test you will never know where you are at: I will be hosting the Open workouts on Friday nights at the box until the end of March. Working out or not come along and cheer the guys and girls who are testing themselves. Some of us may push each other and be a little over the top but this approach is not for everyone. What is for everyone is the community spirit and supporting your gym members who are there day in and day out to get through this together. Once this is done the offer is there to head over to The Fox (Pub) and have some banter and possibly talk about something else other than CrossFit. 

 

The Details:

The 2015 Reebok CrossFit Games season begins with the online Open. Anyone can sign up to compete in five workouts over five weeks and post their scores online. Last year, the Open reached more than 209,000 athletes from around the world.

The 2015 Open begins Thursday, Feb. 26. That evening, tune into the live Open announcement show streamed to Games.CrossFit.com. Director of the Games Dave Castro will announce Open Workout 15.1 and moments later top Games athletes will complete that workout going head to head.

Athletes will submit their scores throughout the weekend. The hard deadline for score submissions is 5 p.m. PT, Monday, March 2. Don’t be late!

P.S. YOU DON’T HAVE TO ENTER THE GAMES TO ATTEND THE FRIDAY NIGHT WODS.
