Week 2 - In The Bank!

The Open is a chance for the CrossFit Community to throw down and see how fit we really are!

I also think its an opportunity to come together against a common enemy and smash its back doors in. We have spoken a lot over the past few weeks about pushing each other to improve. About setting goals and putting in the work to achieve those goals and we are seeing the fruits of our labour.

Over 3 years of coaching in AFS the only lesson I see everyone having to learn is that there are no short cuts, there is no quick fix and no fast track way to get to where you want to go.

We have worked extremely hard in the past 6months. The program has pushed you all to your limits and then pushed those limits further. I have been very pleased to see the application by everyone and the results from these past 2 weeks are food for thought.

I'm pretty sure that every woman member who has entered the Open had never lifted 34kg's above their head before joining AFS yet in 13.2 not only did every one of our women lift it they all hit over 7rds.

The beauty of the Open is the scalability. The fact that the WODs are designed to get everyone involved at the beginning and then gradually increase the difficulty. It will start to get more difficult in the next few weeks but I'm very confident we will be seeing more gutsy performances and maybe even a few surprises along the next few weeks.

Get After It TAFS
