Ben….can you talk about avoiding the forearm pump in the next video on improving your 19.4 video? I can do bar muscle ups but I found that when I got to the bar after the first workout, I couldn't hold onto the bar…..my forearms were so fried!
Thanks for all the tips. As soon as the opens are announced, this is the first place I head to, and your tips have helped me greatly during the opens. Keep it guys…YOU ROCK!
It’s always a pleasure to watch you being so pedagogical. Needless to say that I follow your advice, from warm up to the actual work out. Very relevant, all the way
Hi Ben, I love this page and I love Alfred! One question though. I did 19.4 today and I managed 2 rounds and 3 snatches RX (the snatches are quite heavy for me, so was pretty pleased with that!) The affiliate I performed this at stopped me at 9 minutes. Should I have been allowed to carry on until the 12 minutes were up or is what they did correct? One of my friends go to a different affiliate and they were allowed to carry on passed the 9 minutes to finish the first couplet.
Thanks for the great tips on the CrossFit open wods!! But one thing that has been on my mind lately is the “learning” of certain movements in CrossFit, and the strict pull-up being one of them. It really all comes down to the athlete being strong enough to pull their body to the bar.
Great tips thanks! I thought of doing the first couplet as fast as possible unbroken. Than going 3, 3, 2, and 2 bar muscle ups. And taking time but not too slow on Burpees as to not kill my arms. I'll be 14-15 division rx.
Hey! Amazing tips! I will try them tomorrow! But I'd like to thank you for the 19.2 single T2B tips. I couldn't try it with the open, but yesterday I had to do 50 T2B and I did in single and I notice that I was faster than the people who do more than 5 unbroken T2B and then they had to rest a lot of time.
Really appreciate the great tips. Been following you since my first Open, 14.1, and have found your tips really helpful! Thanks from the OLD guy 55 Master Category!
Hi, thank you for your tips! I´m glad I watched this video on my way to the gym this morning because before that I had been counting on just doing 1 or 2 strict BMU and end there. I had never done kipping BMU without band assistance before. But today I tried this "box drop-in" method and I did 5 BMU in this WOD! 🙂 So thank you for my first kipping BMU!
The Open tips are so helpful, not only for the Open workouts. Thanks to you I finally realized that singles can be much more efficient then bigger sets. And finally I have broken my mental barrier of doing Toes to Bar during WODs and I stopped scaling them. Single T2B are doable for me, but trying to hit more in the row was always a fail 🙂

What do you mean when you say next open is in 6 months? Isn't it once a year?
I'm new in crossfit 😀 thanks for the awesome tips!
Doggo made me subscribe!
On the burpee do you have any tips for non jumping athletes?

Thanks I will try some of this when I redo. Thanks for the 55+ tips. They are much needed!
This workout destroyed me 🙂 Thanks for the tips though.
Guilty of the chicken wing🐔🐣 gotta work on this during the workout🙈
Do straight pullups…almost does them kipping.

Thank you Ben! I look forward to this video and the warm-up before every event!
"Significantly less than 50% 1rm snatch" – wow… I believe you but that's kinda intimidating!!👍
Just curious, why will someone get no – repped for death grip – 16:01? I get ripped palms from it and i'm slowly fixing that.
Ben's tips helped me learn butterfly pull-ups overnight!
Thanks for including comments on 55+ division!
Starts at 1:44
