Funny how they conveniently leave the entrance fees to compete in the Quarter and Semi out of their conversation and off of the Game website! Like it's the same as a 5-week Open for $20. Like they're making these changes for the benefit of the athletes, and not for the corporate bottom line. 🙄

Yeeeeyyy "events" are back!😊🎉
does anyone know if the video rules changes for submitting them after reginals, they were by request in rule book for age group
My takeaways:
1. No tape= possibly no wall walks, hspu, lunges, or shuttles
2. Skills you can’t do= Maybe a move away from the progression type workouts this year (i.e. starting with muscle ups)
Just registered for my first open as an home gym beginner. Quite excited about it. I hope I have all the equipment needed
Let's go! We're so excited for your first Open. Check out the Athlete Resource Center for more Open artwork: cf.games/3Ovyg5t
Wanted a shirt, but the extra $20.00 shipping is BS so passed on ordering the shirt. Basically would end up being a $65.00 shirt with exchange. Nope.
lowes/home depot will have a ton of tape in stock... 🤣
Wait, was he saying there is going to be back flips in the open??? 😂😂😂
my exact thought - forget muscle ups, let the backflip training start NOW 😂
As a garage gym athlete, glad to hear floor plans are generally eliminated. Those were really hard (if not impossible) to follow in the space I have.
Great interview!
Thanks for watching!
Will masters and teens have a quarterfinal?? If yes, why if there’s no games?? Just for fun??

Please no more shuttle runs. Hard to do in a small space.
dope
Hanging on a pull-up bar and a safe distance from an apparatus, a barbell….hmmmm…FRAN IS COMING, be afraid, very afraid.
Oh boy you are so loud and annoing... if it wasn't for Bozman I would cut it off from the start..
