Session Notes – CrossFit Open
It is with a bit of trepidation that I announce the first workout of the 2012 CrossFit Games Open: 7 Minute AMRAP of burpees.

I kid you not.

Here are a few thoughts in no particular order:
1) This is cool because it starts The Open with a workout ANYONE can complete. A total win for expanding the pool of competitors.
2) This sucks!
3) What a nice little test of stamina and coordination: run the body through the same movement right smack dab in the glycolitic pathway, force everyone to touch an object instead of the clap.
4) This sucks! Burpees!!
5) This is one of those workouts that you won’t want to try again. Give it your best on the first shot and forget it ever existed.
6) This sucks! Burpees!! 7min WTF!?!
7) Let’s do this thing right people: give it hell and remember that there’s another 4 workouts in The Open after this one.
