- Why did you choose to compete in the Open?
-Nate and Lauren brought it up and it sounded like a lot of fun to do the same workout that the pros were also competing in.
- Were you able to do all the workouts?
-Yes
5.What is your favorite part about the Open?
-Watching the pros demo the workout with everyone at The Rock, strategizing and cheering others on.
- Are you going to compete again this year?
-Yes
7. Anything else you want to mention?
-I would just say that the open can be fun for everyone as long as they don’t take it too serious. I realized I was at fault for this in the last few workouts and it took some of the fun out of it. Another thing I would mention is that if you have any serious/nagging injuries, the open might not be the best thing for you, especially if you are super competitive. Don’t risk getting hurt even more just to beat someone else’s score.
