The Week 1 workouts for the 2016 CrossFit Team Series were released this evening. Teams will be required to complete four workouts by next Monday night.
Some of the events, particularly the synchronized chest-to-bar pull-ups on Event 1 and the light deadlifts (for top athletes) on Event 2, may prove to be difficult to have consistent judging.
Without any further delay, here are the workouts…and stay tuned to The Barbell Spin for updates. We’ll be gathering as many Pro and Elite videos as we can find.
