Staying in the game

Mentally preparing for the upcoming weekend

W.O.D's are posted, here they are and movement standards will be out today....


The New England sectional is this weekend, March 20-21st. After some deliberation, the WODs have been rubber stamped and ready for competitor's eyes, here's what they will be dealing with throughout the weekend as well as a look at the schedule.

WOD 1 (Saturday) "Pullin"

For time:
800 meter run
30 Snatches, 115/75
800 meter run

WOD 2 (Saturday) "Fast and Furious"

3 rounds for time of:
20 Box Jumps (24/20 inches)
20 Chest-to-bar Pull-ups
20 Wall Balls (20/14lbs, w/10 foot target)

WOD 3 (Sunday) "Serious 7"

Each athlete has 7 minutes to get their 7 rep max squat clean. When the athlete says "go" the judge will start the clock, each athlete has 40 seconds to complete their 7 rep max. They can do as many attempts as they want within the 7 minutes, however you only get 40 seconds for the 7 reps from the first pull. Rest and number of attempts is dependent on the athlete.

WOD 4 (Sunday)

Only the top 50 men and the top 50 women will advance into the final workout. The details of this workout will be revealed Saturday night after the completion of day's events.
