With reduced loading or less challenging movements, the Scaled option will be designed to make the Open even more accessible. A scaled option of the Open workout will be released each week.
"The addition of this scaled component will allow a lot of people who aren't as capable in all of the movements ... to play and have fun and measure up against their own cohort of people and against (their box)."
—Dave Castro, Director of the CrossFit Games
