Open Day!!!!!

So for some of us, it's just another wod.... but for some, its the first wod of the open!!!!  And the first opportunity for you to help your team out!

Some things to think about if you are really wanting to get an aggressive score tomorrow.

Hydrate.

Tonight, and tomorrow morning.  But not right before the workout, and not really during the workout.  It takes around 20 min before water ingested can really be used by your body anyway, so arrive at the gym peeing clear;)

Carbs

Tonight and tomorrow morning.  Try to shoot for quality carbs, especially Sunday morning.  (Oatmeal, whole grains, etc...)  if you are a burner, maybe a few gummy bears right before, but still.... at least 30 mins before, and not to many!!  Also, try not to over do your carbs with a massive meal or with too much fat, again, especially Sunday morning.

The Suck

This wod sucks:(  sorry.  its true.  Its long and hard;) twss  Try not to look at the clock or think about the score you want.  Especially not in the first 10 mins.  Keep your head down and try and just keep moving ahead.  Slow going is better than no going!  Secondly, reign in those horses heading out of the gate!  Its 20 mins long.  Pace it out and burn it out in the end.... if you can.

Great luck to everyone!!!!!  REMEMBER   it's just a workout.  We do this to enhance our lives.  Not ruin it.  Just do you best and let the chips fall where they may!

CrossFit 540 South: 5.15,6.15,11.30,4.30,5.30,6.30

WOW!  Did we call the first workout or what!  ......and by call it we mean pretty much program the exact same thing the day before....:/  The Open Wod 16.1, which was pull-ups, burps and OH Lunges will be the 540 workout of the day on Sunday.  If you would like to come in and do the wod on Friday... thats fine!  The programmed class get priority, but after we will get you judged and taken care of.  If you choose to wait until Sunday we will ALL do the wod and judge and count ourselves in the classes.

Scaled Options.
This year you find yourself choosing between two options, 540's scaled options, and the Open's scaled options.  To submit your score online for the Open, you will have to do the Open's scaled options.

For 16.1, the Open's scaled options will be
Front Rack Bar Lunges
Bar Facing Burpees
Jumping Pullups

Some feel as though the Open can tend to 'over-scale'.  We want you to have fun and be challenged so we will have the following options for this wod

Front Rack Lunges at 95/65
Bar Facing Burpees
Regular Pullups

You can choose between either options for 16.1.  We want you to have fun above all.
