Partner Up! The Full Range Internal Competition is May 13th!

On Saturday, May 13th, we will be holding our second-annual, members-only, partner competition for both RX and Scaled divisions.The purpose of this event is to provide a fun, supportive atmosphere in which EVERYONE from the gym can compete and test themselves.  Each team will tackle 3 events, testing a wide range of abilities, from strength, to power, to endurance.  While there will be prizes (and bragging rights) for the top teams in each division, and, this year, the top teams will be winning CASH as well.  Everyone who competes will gain knowledge about themselves, their areas of strength and weakness, how they perform when it’s “go-time,” while also having a great time!

TIMING:

The event will start promptly at 8am, and our goal is to be finished by 12pm.  We respect everyone’s time, and do not want to take up your entire Saturday.  That being said, if anyone has scheduling issues and can make it for MOST of the event, please let us know and we will do our best to figure out a substitute for you (if several people are in this boat, we can possibly combine the remnants of some teams for the final event).

REGISTERING/FINDING A TEAMMATE:

This is a male/female partner competition, so find someone that will be in the same division as you are, as defined by the standards above. We have only one rule regarding who can and cannot partner together: if you finished in the top 3 in the gym on ANY of the 2016 Open workouts, you cannot be with someone who also finished in the top 3.
