CrossFit Algoa (Port Elizabeth) WOD – Fri, 8 March 2019

Featured Image – Repost from @crossfitgames ・・・When comparing #16point2 and #19point2, the extended initial time cap resulted in many more athletes making it past the first round. On 16.2, 30 percent of men and 45 percent of women didn’t make it past round 1 within 4 minutes. For 19.2, by contrast, only 7 percent of men and 14 percent of women finished the initial 8 minutes in round 1. In the above graphic, you can see in which percentile range competitors landed based on which section they were working on when their workout ended. Getting through toes-to-bars and double-unders on a given round didn’t offer much of a bump in percentiles, but finishing an extra rep on the squat cleans could provide a substantial bump. Read the full analysis of #19point2, by @crossfitbtwb, at https://games.crossfit.com/article/192-workout-analysis/open. (Image courtesy of CrossFit, Inc.)

Reminder – Open Workout 19.3 will be tested from today through to Monday. We will be hosting our Open Workout Friday Night Lights tonight! See you from 16:30 this afternoon until we are done!! Please come support our Box Members participating in the Open!
