3. Fittest in each City (any city/town with 2 or more boxes/garage gyms represented will have a ‘City’ Leaderboard)
4. Fittest in each Box

Prizes (prize value increases as registrations increase)
- Cash / Prizes
- Prize for best box in the North & best box in the South

DIVISION EXPECTATIONS:

ELITE: No major holes. At least 1 member of the team can handle a heavy barbell in a metcon, relatively high 1RMs, and can perform all high-level gymnastics movements (Ring & Bar Muscle Ups, Strict & Kipping HSPU, etc). Most workouts will have an opportunity to ‘hide’ someone with 1 or 2 ‘holes.’

RX: Can Rx most workouts at their box. Can handle medium sized sets (5+) C2B pull-ups, T2B and HSPU along with a medium-heavy barbell in metcons (ex. 135/95 Clean & Jerk, 95/65 Thrusters, 115/75 Snatch)

SCALED: Scales some elements of most workouts at their box. Can handle scaled open movements like hanging knee raises, jumping pull-ups, single unders with lighter loads (95/65 clean & jerk, 65/45 thruster, 75/55 snatch, etc)

MASTERS RX: like RX, just more refined 😉 (both partners must be 40+)
