No Star Player, No Problem!

-Paradigm Grand Opening, 2011

A team with a star player is a good team, but a team without one is a great team.

Don't miss the action this Saturday! If you are coming out to watch and cheer the athletes on, the action will begin at 8am and will wrap up around 1pm. If you are competing, your team needs to check-in between 7am and 7:30am. All athletes on the team must be present to check-in. At 7:30am there will be an athlete briefing for about 15 minutes, and WOD #1 will begin promptly at 8am. I would recommend checking in at 7 and then starting to warmup so that you are ready!

Throw-Down WOD #2: The second workout of the competition will be a 20 minute AMRAP with a "buy-in" required to begin the work. Two athletes will compete for the first ten minutes, and the other two in the second 10 minutes. Teams must decide beforehand who will partnered, and who will be using Rx weight. Two athletes MUST use Rx weight and two can use scaled.

Buy-in: 10 Sandbag runs (5 each athlete). Distance TBA.
AMRAP: 20 Squat Cleans & 20 Shoulder to Overhead (Rx= 115/75 Scaled= 55/35)

One score will be recorded for the whole team, meaning the second two teammates pick up where the first left off, after they also complete their SB buy-in. SB's can be carried anyway as long as it is in contact with the athlete for the entire distance. For the Squat Cleans, the athlete must reach a full squat and then come to hip extension as they stand with the bar. The standard of motion for the S2OH is that the bar must begin in the front rack contacting the shoulders, and be pressed anyway to full arm lockout, with the bar clearly OH with ear visible at profile. Hips should also be extended with feet under the hips. Please ask any questions within your text groups.
