Changes to the Competition Format

Hey Folks,

As you have probably noticed over the last few weeks, we have decided that the best course going forward is to merge our Competition program with our “Performance” program that we run in class.

This decision took a lot of thought, and I hope that none of you feel as though your training is any less important to us than that of anybody else’s; to the contrary, part of us doing this is to allow for those of you that attend the gym to get coached in a class setting, to get pushed by more people, and to open up more opportunities for others to hop in on pieces with you that can provide a more competitive environment.

The format of the class program will not follow a 5-day weekly cycle (as our Competition program has), but it is still expected that your rest days will be Thursday and Sunday (or shifted to meet this same 3on/1off/2on/1off pattern.

In general, there will be extra work added to the Competition program so that we touch on pretty much everything on a weekly basis — only now the days on which movements fall will change from week to week. There will also be options as far as the extra work is concerned, to provide opportunities for you (or anyone that is able) to put additional effort into your weakest areas.

If you have any questions, or need guidance from day-to-day as to which pieces will benefit you most, please don’t hesitate to ask via whatever means you prefer (in-person, text, FB, the FR blog).  If you would like to discuss individualized programming, we are happy to do that as well! Our main goal is to get EVERYONE better, and whatever it takes to do that, we are down.

This blog will remain up, so that you can search for past results (or just reminisce), but the programming will move over to the “Competition” column on the Daily Training section of the Full Range blog (https://fullrangecrossfit.com/category/wod/)

Hope you all have a great week, and smash some workouts!
