I'm registered and READY with an aim for the podium again at the 2022 NoBull CrossFit Games.
There are three qualifying rounds required to make it to the Games.
Round 1: The CrossFit Open - Over the next three weeks, I'll virtually compete with all of the 45-49-year-old men around the world (somewhere between 15,000-25,000 men).
🎥 I published a video to my YouTube Channel this week talking about how to get ready to do the CrossFit Open.
Round 2: The Quarterfinals - (April 21st-24th). I'll compete over this weekend with the top 10% from Round 1.
Round 3: The Semifinals - (May 26th - May 29th). I'll compete over this weekend with top 30 in the world - and the top 10 men will go to the CrossFit Games in August.
This first round is fun, community-driven, and part of my training plan. I'll complete the 'Open' Event/Workout on Friday... then complete my regular training with my aim on the quarterfinals and semifinals where the pressure will be on to be my best!
I can't believe I've been able to compete in the open for 9 years - starting in 2014 when I was just a newbie at CrossFit and had no idea what I was doing.
Since then, I've been able to qualify and perform very well at the CrossFit Games 3 times starting in 2018.
And I can't wait to go back this year... and win 😀
