What is the CrossFit Open?

The CrossFit Open is the world’s largest fitness competition, bringing together athletes of all levels to compete in a series of workouts over the course of three weeks. It's an inclusive event, where anyone—from beginners to elite athletes—can participate, test their fitness, and experience the excitement of the CrossFit community.

Each year, the CrossFit Open consists of three to four workouts, one released each week for three weeks. These workouts are designed to challenge participants across a variety of movements and modalities, testing strength, endurance, speed, and skill.
