Join the CrossFit Open with CFCL

CFCL is excited to annouce that we are taking on the open as a community again this year! Last year we had 41 members join us and had 6 people qualify for the next step - lets try to beat that this year!

What is the CrossFit Open?

  • The CrossFit Open is a global event that brings the community in our gym together as we all cheer, struggle, and challenge ourselves through each week of workouts.

  • Starting on Feb 16th, a workout is released every Thursday and needs to be completed by Monday.

  • One workout per week for three weeks.

Who can participate in the CF Open?

  • Everyone! From the competive athletes to the brand-new beginners.

  • There’s three versions of the workouts that can be completed; Rx, Scaled, Foundations.

  • There are also different divisions depending on your age and gender, and even adaptive disvisions.

  • It is one of the most inclusive fitness competitions in the world.

How will CFCL be doing the Open?

  • Every Friday the Open workout for the week will be programmed as workout-of-the-day. So you can come to any class throughout the day to get your workout in.

  • Those registered in the open will be each others judges for the workout. There will be laminated scoresheet that you will use to judge proper reps requirments for your partner.

  • When you have completed the workout, take a photo of your scorecard (with ipad or your device and email to jason) and then go and submit your score online. Deadline for submissions are EOD Monday after the workout is release and Jason has to verify all scores.

  • Can’t make it to Friday workouts or want to do again? Feel free to come on Sunday or Monday and do the open workout again, but you will have to arrange your own judge.
