Unveiling the Scheme of the 2022 CrossFit Open Workouts: An In-depth Analysis
The 2022 CrossFit Open, a globally anticipated fitness competition, took place between February 24th and March 14th. This three-week event allowed anyone - regardless of fitness level, ability, age, gender, or training age - to compete. Each week during this time block, a workout was released on Thursday at 3:00 p.m. EST via a YouTube livestream event.
The 2022 CrossFit Open consisted of three workouts, each designed to test strength, endurance, and skill across multiple rounds and time frames. The workouts included various high-intensity exercises such as rope climbs, rowing, weighted walking lunges, calories on the bike, and bar muscle-ups. Specific workouts featured sets like 150 calories on the bike for men or 40 toes-to-bar in rounds, highlighting a mix of cardio and gymnastics elements.
CrossFit Open Workout 22.2, for instance, was a deadlift burpee couplet with a rep scheme totaling 100 reps of each movement. The rep scheme followed a specific pattern: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1. Athletes had until the following Monday at 8:00 p.m. EST to execute the workout and submit the score online. CrossFit recommends scaling the weight for the deadlift in Workout 22.2 to 135 and 95 pounds respectively.
CrossFit Open Workout 22.3, on the other hand, required higher level gymnastics skills and was recommended to break the reps up from the start. It had a 12-minute time cap and tested shoulder and lung burn, work capacity, higher skill gymnastics, and the push-pull combo.
The CrossFit Open is the first step toward narrowing down the field of competitors to figure out who gets to compete for the title on the main stadium. The season progresses in the following way: The Open, Quarterfinals, Semifinals, The CrossFit Games.
Gabrielle Kassel, a queer sex educator and wellness journalist, recommends trying the CrossFit Open workouts as good tests of fitness any time of year. She believes that the workouts are a great way to push your limits and test your skills, regardless of the time of year.
Despite the high intensity and challenging nature of the workouts, less than 1% of the people who signed up for the 2022 CrossFit Open were able to complete all reps under the 10-minute time cap for CrossFit Open Workout 22.2. This goes to show the level of difficulty these workouts present, even for the most dedicated athletes.
In conclusion, the 2022 CrossFit Open was a challenging and exciting event that pushed participants to their limits and tested their skills. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or a fitness enthusiast, the CrossFit Open provides a great opportunity to test your fitness and push your limits.
