@kmurph Looks like it. I’ll still do part one as quickly as I can and see how it all lands but muscle ups and handstand walks were always going to come up at one point and that would have been the limit for me. Shows what I need to work on if I want to try again next year

@youthcenterdream Oh really?! Trust me I will give everything to fly through the first section and those first 7 thrusters of the first round, but I can’t do a single muscle up and haven’t even tried to trained them due to a shoulder niggle

@cnghello I’m out as I can’t do muscle ups. Gutted as I’m currently in the 97% percentile and I’ll drop out of qualifying zone from this workout

@entrylevel Well done! It’s always fantastic to see the progress you’ve made! I was in the same DU situation as you and ground it out and RX’d it and I’m glad I did

UPDATE - I spent about 30mins practicing DU today and I reckon I could do single or two DUs at a time so I am going to go try RX and goal of 4 rounds Let’s see how I get on 🤷🏻‍♂️

Update on the update - Submitted an RX score of 490 reps today, so 5.5 rounds. Pretty disappointed overall, but considering I’d never done a DU in my life before Saturday, and only practiced for 3 hours at the weekend, cranking out 250 DU for this workout feels pretty epic. No idea where I am...

@gpela For me personally, I’ve never done them in my life until yesterday as I’ve never done CrossFit. I’ve done more of metcon or hybrid/hyrox type training with things like compromised running for a strong engine.

@johndowling That’s exactly how I see it too! I entered to try and qualify for Q/Fs, so RX it’ll be for me

@gvze That’s a really interesting example and actually really helps put the scoring into perspective. Thanks for sharing

@1corithians13 Oh I absolutely agree with the tiered scoring but I just think there is more merit than a the lowest RX score if someone was to do 10 rounds of scaled. There are so many ways you could cut it though, so might as well accept it as it is right?!

@srutz That seems really strange to me but I really appreciate the insight. Guess I’ve got a decision to make. I think I’ll spend the weekend practicing DUs and submit on Monday

This is my first open so Sorry for what may be a simple question for veterans. I’ve also checked the CrossFit site and I can’t a real answer on there. Can someone explain the scoring between RX and Scaled and how it impacts going from Rx to scaled between workouts? I did 24.1 and am in 92%...
