Programming Sneak Peek (8/3-8/9)

Hey Bell City,

💪💪Great work last week with your 3RM Back Squat and Deadlift!

You also touched on some higher rep Bench Pressing, which leads into our August Monthly Challenge: 2:00 Max Bench Press Reps. On Monday we will be testing our 2:00 max Bench Press with 155/95, 135/85, or 115/75. Like our past monthly challenges, we will be retesting at the end of the month.

‍

🏆This month also marks the annual Community Cup.

The Community Cup is another online CrossFit Competition that takes place about 6 months before/after the Open. If you completed all three workouts of the 2026 CrossFit Open, you have automatically been assigned an official competition level based on your age and performance.

During the Community Cup, you'll compete against athletes in that same level—making it a fun, fair way to measure your fitness against others with similar experience and performance, regardless of age or location.

The Community Cup consists of 4 Workouts throughout the month of August. We will be programming them for Friday Group Class starting with the 2007 Hopper: a 1000m row buy in into 5 rounds of 25 Pull Ups and 7 Push Jerks.
