MOVEMENT STANDARDS FOR CROSSFIT OPEN WORKOUT 20.3

NEW FOR THE 2020 OPEN

Throughout the Open and beginning with the first workout, the top 40 women and 40 men on the overall worldwide CrossFit Games Leaderboard each week will be required to submit videos for review.

CrossFit can now issue major or minor penalties to athletes who don’t meet the required movement standards of each workout after internal review of video submissions.

Should an athlete not meet the movement standards, the video might be valid with a minor penalty – if the athlete demonstrates a small number of “no reps” that result in a faster time or higher score – a major penalty – if the athlete demonstrates a significant number of “no reps” that result in a faster time or higher score – or be deemed invalid.

If an athlete is given a major penalty, their score may be modified by subtracting 15 percent from the total rep count.

Sam Briggs, Frederik Aegidius and Many More Receive Harsh Scoring Penalties for 20.1

When the Open finishes, the top five men and five women from each eligible country as well as the top 40 men and women on the overall worldwide leaderboard may be required to submit videos for review.

Even if, like the majority of CrossFit athletes, you’re not anywhere near being in the top of the leaderboard, make sure to follow the movement standards for CrossFit Open Workout 20.3.
