 Back for the 4th year, and after having grown year-over-year into one of the largest fitness competitions in the Northwest, the GOBBLER GAUNTLET will once again put your fitness to the test!  What will we “cook” up in 2016?  You’ll have to sign up to find out!  🙂

Join us for the premier three-person team event hosted this year at the 60,000 sq. ft. PAVILION at the Oregon State Fairgrounds!  We will once again have a blast, crush some WODs, and find out once again which team is the Gobbler Gauntlet champion!

The GOBBLER GAUNTLETTM is open to all level of athletes over the age of 18.  All athletes are encouraged to familiarize themselves with different fitness domains; more specifically to have some exposure to CrossFit-style workouts and powerlifting.  The Rx division includes all powerlifting, bodyweight, and gymnastic movements.  NW Fit Games does not program muscle ups in regular competition, however they have shown up in finals. The Scaled division will include lighter weight and less advanced movements than Rx.  All athletes will be required to sign a waiver.

Don’t miss the after party at Vagabond brewing starting at 4pm!!!!
