Athlete Reactions to Regional Workout Announcement

So by now you’ve probably seen that the first individual Regional workout has been released by Dave Castro. If not, check it out here (we’ll wait).

Ok, so a workout that features a 3/4 mile run, strict handstand push-ups, chest-to-bar pull-ups and air squats, all with a 5.11 Tactical weight vest. Sounds fun, right? Let’s see how some CrossFit Regional athletes have reacted to Castro’s announcement.

@thedavecastro @crossfitgames trying to figure out weighted HSPU is this the proper way to wear the @511tactical vest? #faithoverfitness #jesuscoffeeheavythings #1timothy48 #misfitathletics #misfittakeover #teammisfit2017 #sharpentheaxe #iamthedarkhorse #southregion #regionals2017 #thisisdayone #blonyx #blonyxstrong #whateverittakes #crossfit #crossfitgames @misfitathletics @crossfitdayone @fit_darlings @toofitusa @blonyx

@CrossFitGames @CFthedavecastro I guess spending the first few months of training 60lbs. heavier kinda works in my favor now 🤔 …time cap???

🤔 I mean can you really say “I’ll enjoy a workout”. All of them are going to hurt like the Dickins. But I’ll be honest. I love the sound of 48 strict weighted hspus 😜 #AsianElbowsFTW #shortmansgame #butthat1200runthough😅 #survivetherungettothechoppah _______________________________________________________ #Repost @thedavecastro with @repostapp ・・・ @crossfitgames Individual Event 1 @bornprimitive @bearkomplex @artiesonthego @michaelheitholt @macros_lab @abywellness @greaterthan #ThreeKings #TerminatorFactory #mightymouse #mightymousematt #crossfit #hspus #stricthspu #regionals
