WORKOUT 12.1, 2012 CrossFit Games Open

Complete as many reps as possible in 7 minutes of:

Burpees

This workout begins from the standing position. The Athlete will move from flat on the ground to touching an object with both hands that is 6 inches above their max reach. Score is total reps completed.

Movement Standards
Burpee
At the bottom position, the Athlete’s chest and hips must touch the ground. At the top of the movement, both hands must make contact with the target 6 inches above your max reach.

If you’re on Team CrossFit NYC and officially competing in the Games, you must read the above movement standards AND watch this video that explains WOD 12.1 to prepare yourself to come do the WOD today. Doing so will prepare you and will make your coach’s job of getting everyone through the workout much easier. Thanks!

    I submitted my score on Sunday, but it still doesn’t show up. Did I do it wrong?

    • Hari

      Naveen,

      I see your score, submitted on Friday, but I didn’t see anything on the judging sheets at the Box. Did you and your judge log your results?

      • Naveen

        I told sully my score. He just said to remember to post it online.

    What is the cut-off for this week’s open WOD? Christian and I are in LA and likely won’t have time to get to a box before we return home late on Monday.

    • Hari

      You need to do it by Sunday evening. You can do it at any affiliate and have them verify it.

      • Court

        That’s by 8pm, EST.

        • Christian

          Can’t see us making it by then… Any feasible alternatives?

  • Ray Levitt

    Regrettably my schedule has not allowed me to make Friday’s or today’s Open workout. Will there be any opportunities to do it tomorrow, Sunday? 

    • Court

      You can do it at any of our classes tomorrow, Ray.

      • Ray Levitt

        Awesome! Thanks Court.

    I need to complete the first workout tomorrow as well. Where will that take place, the 26th street location or 28th st space?

    • Court

      Most likely 26th St, Michelle.

    Dare I say it? That was fun. 12.1 – 86
    I looked back over my notebook and on December 7 of 2010 I did 75 burpees for time and it took me 11:08. I’ve made a slight improvement over the last year and three months I’d say. :)
