The entire games open has been one big eye opener after another for me. First with 12.1 and the Burpees, then 12.2’s Snatches and of course 12.3’s combination of Box Jumps, Push Presses and Toes to Bar.

A couple months back I started e-mailing affiliates in southern California asking if I could stop by, shoot a few photos and interview staff for a series of articles I would be writing for the blog. I wanted to showcase their location, and maybe even some of their athletes who might be planning on competing this next year.
