Logistics:
RX: You perform approximately 90%+ benchmark workouts with RX weights and movements. Having muscle ups are not a requirement for this division for all participants, however at least one person from your team must be able to do them. Common WODs you should be able to do RX are Fran, Elizabeth, Diane, Grace, Isabel, Amanda and Mary. Cash prizes, typically winner takes all with the top 3-4 teams in finals and a staggered start depending on the placement going into finals. Here is a list of common weights and movements that RX competitors should be able to do:
1. Snatch 135/95
2. Clean 185/125
3. Deadlift 255/185
4. Thruster 135/95
5. Back Squat 225/155
6. Kipping Handstand Push Ups
7. Chest to bar Pull Ups
8. Pistol squats
9. Toes to Bar
10. Double Unders
11. Rope Climbs

SCALED/INTERMEDIATE: You perform roughly 50% of the movements RX, but modify many classic WODs due to strength or gymnastic necessity. People in this division can generally do a kipping pull up (but maybe not strict one yet). Handstand push ups are push ups in this division. Traditionally scaling involves a reduction in the weight from RX by approximately 25%. Double unders are optional and sometimes allowed in combination with single unders. No cash prizes, top 3-4 teams to finals. If you are an RX athlete DO NOT join a scaled team just because they need another person, this undermines the integrity of the competition and your box.

NOVICE: You perform approximately 10% of the WODS Rx. Weights are scaled and gymnastics movements are less advanced versions such as knee push instead of regular push ups and jumping pull ups in place of regular pull ups.

MASTERS: 40+ in the calendar year of the event. A hybrid between the RX and Scaled/Intermediate divisions. Weights will be classic Rx, but will not be RX+ like many competitions have in RX divisions. Body weight and gymnastics skills are similar to Advanced-RX with generally less advanced versions such as pull ups instead of CTB pull ups. Finals for top teams if the volume justifies (8+ teams), no cash prizes. More masters divisions will be released as the need presents.
