Crossfit Open Workout 19.2

CrossFit Open Workout 19.2 was a repeat of CrossFit Open Workout 16.2. It is:

• 25 toes to bar
• 50 double unders
• 15 squat cleans (85 lbs)
• 25 toes to bar
• 50 double unders
• 13 squat cleans (115)

If you finish in under 8 minutes, you get 4 more minutes to do another round with heavier squat clean weight.

I didn’t finish this round, but I was happy with it. I almost did.

After 2 weeks of CrossFit Open workouts for 2019, I’m just not into it. Without Regionals to measure yourself against, you’re against everyone, and being in the thousands tells me nothing of my fitness level. The CrossFit Open used to be a way to measure your improvement over a year. Now, the only way you know if you’ve improved is in your head. Can you do a muscle up this year that you couldn’t last year? Can you string more double unders together? Can you lift heavier weight?

The CrossFit Open to me is not what it used to be. And that saddens me.
