The 2013 CrossFit Games Regionals Event 2 is a monster workout fit for monster killers. At prescription, this is incredibly difficult. Scaling doesn't help much. Heavy Overhead squats are brutal. We loved it.

CrossFit Games Regional, Event 2

Complete the following in 7:00 minutes:
3 Overhead squats

Begin with 135, 185, 225, or 255 pounds, (scale as needed) and increase by 10 pound increments to as heavy as you can within the seven minutes. Do not use a rack.

Todd McK- 65
Erin- 105
Derrick- 135
Abby- 65
Holley- 35
Sharon- 75
Teresa- 95
Kathryn- 85
Delaina- 35
T- 115

Great workouts everyone. Nice Overhead squats. Your hard work and consistency has paid off. Continue.

If your Overhead squat isn't where it needs to be fall back to the lowest level of your training at CFSF- the basic Airsquat. Start at the beginning. Only when you have perfected the Airsquat should you put a lot of focus on the Overhead squat.

Overhead squats expose both strength and flexibility issues. Any deficits and you are toast.

Consistency in training, HOMEWORK, and mobility training will get you there. It's on you.
