WOD 2 Predictions Crossfit Games 2012


PLACING bets for the WOD 2 of the 2012 Crossfit Games could prove difficult after the 7 minutes of max burpees we saw last week but I just did it.

Let's have a look at last years WOD 2 and what my predictions are for this years second open workout.



This time last year we had a 15 minute AMRAP of 9 Deadlifts (155lbs/75kg 100lbs/45kg), 12 Push-ups and 15 Box Jumps (24 or 20 inch).

Let's rehash the pattern from last year
    All AMRAPS
  • Completed with minimal equipment and space
  • Light weights for the first two weeks
  • Each WOD had two to three movements.
Okay so obviously the bottom rule has been wiped out for this year but I still expect to see this formula followed with the exception of the last week where I'll predict a death by... or something in that realm.

On the plus side we can safely wipe out burpees for the rest of the open divisions.

Here goes: WOD 2 of the 2012 Crossfit Games is...

10minute AMRAP
30 double unders
10 cleans (M 100lbs/45kg : W 65lbs/30kg)

Stay tuned for the outcome and breakdown of the official WOD released at 11am Thursday (Australian Eastern Standard Time)
