AGOQ
Just as in previous years we've grown accustomed to cheering on Cassie, Coach Liz, Coach Amy, and Coach Sarah at the CrossFit Games Regionals in May, we normally spend part of April cheering on Coach Kim in the CrossFit Games Age Group Online Qualifier ("AGOQ")... which is pretty much Regionals for Masters Athletes. This year Kim is sitting out the AGOQ due in large part to a gardening (wha?!) mis-step which created an Achilles injury she's been rehabbing back to full capacity. But we're excited to see her back in full swing this year in time for the 2019 AGOQ (maybe with some other Masters qualifiers from Arena Ready as well?!).
Last Thursday the 2018 AGOQ workouts were announced and athletes had 4 days to complete the WODs and record their performances for submission (with which they are ranked and the top in the world qualify for the Masters Division at the 2018 CrossFit Games). This week we'll hit a few of those workouts in the gym starting with a Monday WOD "inspired" by the first AGOQ event... but first, Back Squats of course.
Hope you had a great weekend!
