The Fittest Yooper 2018
About This Competition
Fittest Yooper
Online Fitness Competition for Residents of the U.P.
**You must be a resident of Upper Peninsula of Michigan to participate**
One workout per month for 12 months - first workout is released
January 8, 2018
Besides fun, there are two main purposes of this competition:
-
To provide an ongoing incentive to improve. There will be no surprises and all workouts will allow the majority of athletes to at least start the workout (will not start with muscle ups or 250 lb clean and jerks). Furthermore, the inclusion of any of the higher skill/load movements (e.g., double unders, muscle ups, handstand push ups, heavier snatch, etc) will be announced 30 days prior to the release of the workout.
-
To provide another level of ongoing feedback for the athletes. We all know where we stand in our gym and many of us participate in the Open. But the Open is only once a year and our gyms have a limited competition pool. This competition provides a larger pool and provides ongoing training feedback.
Price - $35
Fee will be prorated on a per month basis for athletes registering during the year.
Full-time college students - register with your .edu school email address and use promo code "BROKEASS" for a $10 discount.
All proceeds after expenses will be donated to a local charity.
No Refunds - consider it charitable donation.
Workouts
Workouts are released on the second Monday of every month at 8 pm Eastern time.
The March workout will be the Open workout that corresponds most closely to our timeframe (no duplication of effort during your run for the Games).
There will be a scaled version of every workout.
Athletes will have 14 days to submit their score.
(This provides quite a bit of time to accommodate vacations, illness, and plenty of redos while not interfering with other competitions.)
This is about improvement - so we are telling you now that, at some point in the year, Rx workouts will include: handstand push ups, ring muscle ups, bar muscle ups, double unders, handstand walks, pistols (why haven't those been in the Open yet???).
Divisions
Male
Female
If we get enough participants, we will create a Men's and Women's 35+ division.
In the event such a Master's division isn't warranted, you will still be able to filter the leaderboard by age group to see how you stand.
Note - use the highest age bracket that you will reach at any point during the year.
Rx v. Scaled
Just like the Open, you can choose to scale on a workout by workout basis. And, just like the Open, the lowest Rx score will always rank higher than the highest Scaled score.
As stated earlier, there will be no surprises and all workouts will allow the majority of athletes to at least start the workout (will not open with muscle ups or 250 lb clean and jerks). Furthermore, the inclusion of any of the higher skill/load movements (double unders, muscle ups, handstand push ups, heavier snatch, etc) will be announced 30 days prior to the release of the workout.
Judging
Every workout must be recorded and uploaded to YouTube.
Choose a judge that will not hesitate to no rep you!
Videos of the top 5 in each division for each workout will be evaluated by panel of judges.
Workout and Judging Committee
Each year, a committee of three will be selected to produce and evaluate the workouts and judge video submissions.

Barbell & Plates
Dumbbells (25 lbs and up)
Medicine Balls (12 lbs up to 30 lbs)
Plyo boxes (20” and 24”)
