CrossFit Revisited: Our Attempt at Qualifying for a Competition

Should I Bother?

After 6 whole weeks, we’re back with Part 2 to discuss how our attempt at qualifying for our first ever CrossFit competition (the Malaga Throwdown 2023) actually went.

Underestimating how competitive this specific competition would be, we realised very late on that we’d both be competing against at least 90 others in both the male and female scaled category. Wod da fook..

With only the top 16 making it through, how do you think we got on?

If you’re any way familiar with CrossFit, listen in to hear what the workouts involved, what it was like to film and complete our qualification attempts and what the standard was really like in the so-called “scaled” category.

Also, if you’re REALLY arsed, you could try the workouts yourself and see if you would have qualified.

Find all the workouts on the Malaga Throwdown website at this link: https://malagathrowdown.es/qualifiers/

And see the leaderboard and associated scores on Wodbuster.com at this link: https://arena.wodbuster.com/competition.aspx?id=1056&idd=5425&idw=

If you do attempt it, we’d love to hear how you get on!! Just write to us on @shouldibotherpod on Instagram or email [e-mail]
