Don't forget to sign-up for the Open WOD this week!

"What a man believes may be ascertained, not from his creed, but from the assumptions on which he habitually acts."
-George Bernard Shaw


Today's WOD:
20-minutes to build a heavy rack jerk.

"D.T."
In honor of USAF SSgt Timothy P. Davis, 28, who was killed on Feburary, 20 2009 supporting operations in OEF when his vehicle was struck by an IED. Timothy is survived by his wife Megan and one-year old son T.J.
5 rounds for time, of:
12 Deadlifts (155/105 lbs.)
9 Hang Power Cleans (155/105 lbs.)
6 Push Jerks (155/105 lbs.)

Open WOD 12.4 will be announced tomorrow at 2:00pm our time (Hawaiian time)! 
This week (like last week) the Open WOD will be programmed for our regular classes on Thursday. We will also still be holding our Saturday Night Open WOD event.
  1. We will hit the Open Workout of the Week on Thursday as the WOD for all classes - If you plan on being validated during a class you must sign-up for a class time (this is only for registered athletes, all others can just come to the class). Post the class time you intend on coming to for Thursday's Open Workout on the gym sign-up sheet or on our Facebook page.
  2. Saturday Night Lights - Everyone is invited to either cheer on or participate in the Open WOD (you do not have to be registered to participate). Saturday Night Lights will begin at 4:00pm. Please sign-up on the sheet at the box or on our Facebook page - note if you are a registered athlete or not. Athletes will be assigned a heat and notified of their heat assignment upon arrival on Saturday. Please DO NOT show up before 4:00pm, the first heat will not begin till 4:30pm, so you'll have plenty of time to warm-up!
  3. Validation - You must watch the weekly Movement Standard Video that the CrossFit Games website provides, and understand what is full range of motion for every movement in the Workout. Your judge is not responsible for you not understanding what the full range of motion is!
  4. Posting your scores online - After you have been validated it is your responsibility to post your score online! The deadline for doing this is before 5:00pm PT (2:00pm DST) on Sundays, however I do not suggest waiting till the very last minute.
  5. The CrossFit 808 Team - Throughout the Open, each team will be ranked (both in the World and the Region) based on their top 3 female scores and their top 3 male scores. There are many factors that go into deciding who will represent our team at Regionals. Ultimately, the decision will be entirely up to the coaching staff, but placement in the gym at the end of the Open will be taken into consideration.
