Hopper Style WODs for the Week Before Easter


Some of you may have noticed on the Big Board it says Random Easter Egg WODs Week. You're probably thinking what is that? From April 14th-18th all your WODs will be randomly chosen by the classes. Just like the original CrossFit games in 2007 all WODs will be randomly selected "hopper" style. We technically don't have a hopper but a big glass bowl should work.

Our coaches always do a great job at programming skill work and WODs daily to help develop your skills. This random choosing will test your strength, endurance, fitness level, and sheer determination. After all, CrossFit is suppose to gear us for the unknown.

So how does this actually work?

Monday April 11th all classes starting with 11am will select eggs. 11am selections that morning will be the WOD for everyone that day Monday.

5pm, 6pm, and 7pm will pick eggs at the beginning of their class also Monday the 11th. The eggs picked by 5pm will be for the WOD Tuesday, 6pm will be Wednesday, and 7pm Friday. (We will make Thursday as a rest day. We feel you're going to need it)

How are the eggs selected?

1) One person in class will select the first egg which must be GREEN from the basket. The green eggs will determine if it will be a AMRAP or how many of rounds there will be.

2) Someone else will select a random BLUE egg also from the basket. The blue eggs will be the number of CrossFit movements that will be in the WOD. (Could range from 3 to a lot)

3) Depending on the number chosen in the Blue egg, others will choose that many eggs for movements from the glass bowl. (There are over 90 different CrossFit items to choose from and 5 wild card eggs)

The Rules:

1) Movements must be done in the order they are selected.

2) If multiple barbell movements are selected the CrossFitter must change their own weights accordingly (just like open 14.3)

3) There will be a time cap of 45 minutes if needed.

4) There will be 5 "wild card" eggs.  If a wild card egg is selected it counts as a movement.

We wish you all the best. Please pick wisely.

Sincerely,
Dave Castro
