*********IMPORTANT UPDATE FROM RSJ HQ********* We have had a few enquiries from registered athletes in regards to the workouts which have been programmed for the event, and how they may effect the upcoming pen season which kicks off 1 month post RSJ. I can give you all the upmost of confidence that from a programming perspective, the open was one of the first obstacles I took into consideration when selecting the dates.... and further how delicately I approached writing the workouts. I understand for many, the open is the end goal of a year of hard work and dedication, and you all want to give yourselves every opportunity possible to qualify for the now top 30 regional places or, to simply to the very best you can. I know first hand from 5 years of competing how frustrating it is to be on the sidelines for a week due to messed up hands, a smoked CNS or niggly overuse injuries. Especially at this time of the year. The WODS will be a test, every WOD is when done in the competitive environment, though there is no ridiculous volume in movements that will jeopardise your training in the lead up to the open. No doubt a day off to recover is a good option, but like I said, we dont aim to crush our competitors into submission or a week of no training. I wouldnt be happy if this was the case. When we set out on this venture, one of our bigger goals was to combine Crossfit.... a summer festival vibe.... and bring to Perth a bunch of athletes who we dont often get to see in the flesh from the east coast. Not to set up a competition that was so ruthless that the fun factor was diminished. All athletes , in all categories will be looked after. Thats a promise. And to the east coast crew coming over, Perth cant wait to see you, they are absolutely amped to have you on this side of Australia. Simple yet effective variety and.... Fun! thats what you will get!
