Run the Test 03 — Jackie Pro, ‘22 CrossFit Games
January 28, 2023“At the end of the day, the intensity that you bring to the test is the hard part. That’s what happens in the affiliate. … It’s the effort that you bring to it that dictates the difficulty. It’s no different at the Games.” — Adrian Bozman, Competition Director
Jackie Pro — a classic CrossFit benchmark work with a twist. The twist? A forced pace on a 1,000-m row to start the final event of the 2022 NOBULL CrossFit Games.
Individuals had to complete the 1K row in under 3:15 for the men or 3:40 for the women, adding a new level of intensity to the workout. If they couldn’t beat the cap, they didn’t advance to the rest of the workout.
In this episode, learn the inspiration behind the row time cap, and why Games competitors and everyday CrossFit athletes aren’t so different when it comes to the intensity and effort they bring to workouts.
