THE MAJORS

Team Requirements

To compete in The Majors, athletes should possess the strength and skills necessary to perform typical CrossFit workouts.  Athletes should be comfortable performing standard barbell movements, such as the deadlift, snatch, clean, shoulder-to-overhead (shoulder press, push press, push/split jerk), squats (back, front, overhead) and thrusters.  They should be comfortable using kettlebells, dumbbells, sandbags, slam balls and also rowing, running, biking and using a ski erg.

WOD Requirements.  Athletes should be capable of completing Karen, Grace, Fran and Annie as prescribed.

STRENGTH Requirements.  Athletes should be capable of performing deadlifts at 135lb, cleans at 95lb, snatches 85lb and thrusters at 75lb.

SKILL Requirements.  All athletes should be capable of performing multiple repetitions of the following movements: burpees, box jumps, wall walks, pull-ups, double unders, and toes-to-bar.

**There will be no single “show stopper” movement in ALOTO10; as long as all athletes can perform the required skills, your team will be able to progress through the workouts.  However, the more athletes that are proficient at a skill, the more successful and competitive your team will be.
