The 2018 CrossFit Open is creeping up on us at the end of February and we are planning something special for you all!
Leading up to the first week of the Open you will see a shift to focus on barbell cycling and gymnastic work. What is barbell cycling? It’s the ability to efficiently cycle through a set number of reps with more technical barbell movements. Think clean, jerk, snatch.
Weather you are officially signing up for the Open or not we are going to be taking on the five different workouts every Friday from February 22nd to March 26th.
You can officially sign up for the Open by following the link >HERE<. Remember to register under East Dallas CrossFit!
