<p>Toes to bar get tiring very, very fast. And once your grip goes the snatch will get hard too.</p>
<p>Â </p>
<p>Then you get to see how well you lift under fatigue

<div style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;margin:0px;"><span>This year there is a scaled option, in case you are wondering why the numbers competing are lower. I've stayed at RX, as there are only a handful of movements I can't do now (Bar muscle up) but now people that can't do double unders, or toes to bar, so some other movement can do a scaled version of the workout and still compete with friends in their gym.</span></div>

<div style="margin:0px;"><span>My numbers are changing as more scores come in, but it's roughly around there. Also a bit of controversy as several people have had their scores invalidated. Basically, some people though it would be a good idea to sandbag the first part of the workout (with one toes to bar, for example), stand around for 9 minutes then for the lifting piece. They didn't ready the rules carefully enough, and not have to do it again Lots of bitching about it, talk about missing the point.</span></div>

It certainly is, she's pretty impressive at the gym too. Coach calls her 'gunshow'<br><br>
So you won't see anymore photos of me, my Open is over
sad trombone<br><br>
Have had a bit of a setback, and am in hospital. Not too serious, and will be out in a few more days. But no more competitive Crossfit, just training now.
