The CrossFit Open
Dave Castro summarised the Open perfectly earlier in the week. He said:
“[…] it just exposes weaknesses – and that’s what happens at the Open. You’re dealt with the things you typically don’t excel at and you either do your homework and make changes next year or you don’t…”

NOTES ON 20.4
After the call of “3, 2, 1 … go,” the athlete may perform 30 box jumps followed by 15 clean and jerks, then 30 box jumps followed by 15 clean and jerks at a heavier weight, then 30 box jumps followed by 10 clean and jerks, increasing the weight again. Next, the athlete performs 30 single-leg squats followed by 10 clean and jerks, then 30 single-leg squats followed by 5 clean and jerks, and finally, 30 single-leg squats followed by 5 clean and jerks. Again, the weight of the clean and jerk increases each round.
Athletes may set up multiple barbells. If one barbell is used, the athlete may receive assistance changing the load on the bar. Receiving any assistance other than adjusting loading is not permitted unless safety is an immediate concern.
