2012 CrossFit Games Begins

The Synergy Strength and Conditioning 2012 CrossFit Games team has been created on-line and is ready and waiting for members to join.

For those interested in the games (which I hope is many) this is how we are planning on running things this year;

On Wednesdays evenings at 5:00pm the workouts are released on-line, there are 5 weeks of workouts starting on February 22nd through to March 24th.  After the workouts have been released we as a club will program them into out weekly workouts on Thursday all day (group class workout).  This means that anyone looking to do the workout for fun or competition can on Thursday during class time.  After completing the workout once on Thursday we will again do the workout on Sunday as the “true competition day” – this means that judges will be made available and every athlete who is registered as a TEAM member will compete for scores that will be logged online that evening before 5:00pm.  If athletes are working out on Thursday or are unable to make a  Sunday workout they will have to find their own judge to score the workout to ensure proper scoring (the Thursday workout may be used as the best scored workout if judges).  The Sunday workout will take place after the Sunday group class workout @ 12:30pm.  Sunday classes will be limited to 10:00am and 11:00am and the Synergy Team workout will take place at 12:30pm.  Similar to last year we will be inviting all other affiliates and garage gym workout stars to join us and compete with us it a fun supportive atmosphere.  so, team Synergy will be competing hopefully with many others from within Saskatoon as well.  Only those whoa re truly competing and logging times online will be allowed to workout on Sunday’s, which means that they will be judged and then will submit their scores online after the workout to see where they rank against the others in the world.

I have made my profile (dirty moustache and all)

I would love to see a huge contingent of Synergy members take part it the open – let’s make this a great event and a great 5 weeks of competition.  Of course you may simply attend class every Thursday, but I would love for anyone interested in competing on Sunday’s to register and give it a try (remember that you do not have to win to have fun).

To find out more about the games go HERE, to learn about the team, individual, or masters divisions go HERE, and to understand the rules go HERE.

Please ask questions below as I am sure I have missed a few things – I will answer them as they come in.

Q1: – I can not find you the TEAM

A1: Sorry I accidentally made the team as unaffiliated (not sure what happened) – so if you look under the column unaffiliated gyms you will find Synergy Strength.  Am working on gettign it fixed now.
