I’ve signed up! I know I can’t do all the workouts and for the Open there aren’t modifications allowed but I’ve decided to try and do the best I can.
It’s five competitive work outs, over five weeks.

I’ll be sure to report back and let you know how goes.
Nice! I’ll be doing it too, for sure! Last year I did it and I was very worried about being able to do all the workouts, becuase at that point I couldn’t even do a pull-up! But by the time of 13.4, I could do regular pull-ups. Then, the next wod called for c2b pullups… and I somehow got 3! I think the Open is a great time to surprise yourself with all sorts of strength! Good luck!
