Tim and I are heading to the OPT Athletic Development and Optathlon this weekend. It is at Windy City Crossfit in Chicago and should be an amazing test of fitness we can't wait to talk to James (winner of the first CrossFit Games) and learn from all of his experiences.
Day 1 will run from 9-4. The day will have two lecture sections, each presented and followed by an open Q&A session with James. The theme of the sessions will be "Long Term Fitness Athlete Development." Topics to be covered will be OPT philosophy, newest research and data from testing of fitness athletes, standards for new athletes, future of the sport, case studies, and a sample 2 year peaking template for a new athlete in the sport.
OPTATHLON 2.0 - Day 2
Day 2 is all about COMPETITION! In the second annual OPTathlon we hope an athlete can break the 6000 point mark and that 30% of the athletes score above the 5000 point total.
Event 1: Clean and Overhead in 10 min
Event 2: Standing Triple Jump
Event 3: Row Repeats (500 m row, rest 90 sec, 500 m row)
Event 4: Unknown Circuit
Event 5: Reverse Shot Put Toss - 16# men, 8# women
Event 6: 3000 m run
