What is the CrossFit Open?
1) The CrossFit Open is the world’s largest participatory sporting event with over 300,000 people competing in thousands of gyms around the world.
2) There are three workouts over three weeks. Each workout has a version for advanced athletes, various versions for masters athletes, and a scaled division that is suitable for beginners and intermediates
3) We’ll complete one Open workout each week at CrossFit Sanitas, plus host special events with fun and prizes.
4) The CrossFit Open is the qualifier to crown the fittest athletes in the world at the CrossFit Games every year. But there is a scaled division that features movements like single-unders, jumping pull-ups, and thrusters using just the bar — making it fun and accessible for virtually all CrossFit Sanitas members.
5) You do not need to register with CrossFit to participate at CrossFit Sanitas. However, we encourage you to sign up — it’s really fun to be part of the world’s biggest athletic event, and it allows you to compare your results with people of similar ages and abilities worldwide.
this year we have 3 teams. every member at CFS is one of the teams! CHECK THE FRONT WHITEBOARD TO FIND YOUR NAME!
