We trace our paths from school sports to CrossFit, then take a hard look at the Open—what it tests, what it misses, and how cheating and video standards skew results. We debate scaled divisions, movement safety, and whether “Fittest on Earth” is even the right title, before sharing coaching tips, training environment trade-offs, and goals for the season ahead.
• school and college sports feeding stronger movement foundations • early lifting setting up skills and body control • the Open’s bias toward accessibility and engine • missing heavy and high-skill tests at the first stage • video audits, cheating risk, and leaderboard integrity • movements to cut: pistols, wall walks as tests, weighted muscle-ups • safer strength tests at locals versus 1RMs in tight spaces • scaled divisions versus intermediate as the baseline • who excels: gymnastics and swimming backgrounds • coaching versus training environment trade-offs • upcoming comps, qualifiers, and season goals
