Counting Reps

Hey CFU,

Just wanted to take the time and remind you of how important it is to count your reps.  I recently did the Crossfit Believe monthly workout and submitted my video. After viewing the video and making sure everything looked good, I noticed that I had only done 29 of the 30 required squat clean thrusters.  I immediately emailed Alan (Crossfit Believe owner) and told him to take away the 100 dollar gift card to Rouge. Sucks for me. This costly mistake was my fault but, I did not want to win an ill gotten prize.   

I hope all of you can learn from this little story and be sure to keep better track of your reps than I did.  Remember that every rep counts and this a perfect example. The gym holds you to a standard and I believe you should hold yourself to the same if not higher standard with form, and integrity.  We are getting ready for the open and missed reps, poor form, not completing the full range of motion, etc. will not be tolerated.

Cant wait to see how well many of you all do during this open season.  Again, I encourage all to participate. Look at last year WOD's for example of what might be to come this year. 

Get Stronger.
