Kat's Training Diary

Chad and I are leaving tomorrow for the Qualifiers in Calgary. Getting really excited!

We found out the workouts late last night... can't say that I was pumped up, excited, or even pleased what they chose. I feel as though it doesn't test the 'elite' elements of CrossFit. There should have been something like an overhead squat, met-con clean and jerk, handstand pushups, double unders, etc. Right now, in my opinion the workouts are designed to allow alot of people to compete required. The only limiting factor is pullups for chicks... and even with these standards it makes pullups alot easier for those who barely have them.

Oh well... all I can do is work my butt off and hope it's enough to qualify. And if not then I guess I'm going the video tape route that Games Officials just posted today, or our Affiliate Team.
