CrossFit Total Challenge
January 16th - March 27th
The CrossFit Total
The CrossFit Total is the sum of your one rep max on three lifts, your Back Squat, your Shoulder Press, and your Deadlift. You may warm up with as many sets as you like. Once you begin you have 3 attempts at a max for each lift.
This is your opportunity to really see how your hard work pays off. On Saturday January 16th and Sunday January 17th we will test your CrossFit Total (click here for details and rules). In March, after lots of hard work and more strength focused programming, you will re-test to see how much stronger you have gotten.
Athletes will be divided into weight classes as follows:
Women:
- 130lbs and under
- 131lbs - 154lbs
- 155lbs +
Men:
- 170lbs and under
- 171lbs - 204lbs
- 205lbs +
Cash prizes will be awarded to the highest Total in each weight class as well as the most improved athlete.
