April Pull-Up Challenge!

April is here, and it's time to take your pull-up game to the next level with our April Pull-Up Challenge! Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just starting your pull-up journey, this challenge is for YOU.

Here's how it works:

Start with a baseline test of your current strict pull-up ability.
Commit to completing 100 strict pull-ups each week throughout April. Quality over quantity is the key here!
Log your results in Wodify to track your progress.
At the end of the month, we'll retest to celebrate your strength gains.

Pull-Up Variations:
No matter your current level, there’s an option for everyone:

Strict Pull-Ups
Banded Pull-Ups
Seated Pull-Ups

Why join?
This challenge is all about building strength, consistency, and confidence—one pull-up at a time. So many of us have the desire to get that first pull-up or build better strength to rip out 10+ pull-ups. Plusm it's the stepping stone to so many other advanced gymnastic movements.

Every participant will receive a custom participation sticker and be entered into a drawing to win a $100 gift card to the OV CrossFit online apparel store!

2019 OVC "OPEN" Performance Challenge RESULTS!

Over the past 12 weeks we have challenged ourselves to work harder and eat healthier as part of the 2019 OVC OPEN Performance Challenge.

We experienced the excitement and struggles of the CrossFit Games Open together and grew as individuals, teams, and a community within OV CrossFit.

In this time we improved in every aspect of our fitness leading to amazing results during our check-out assessments over the past few weeks

317lb. Clean Complex Improvement
388 second Rowing Improvement
1,435 rep Deadlift/Shoulder to Overhead Improvement
Over 100lbs. Weight Lost
25lbs. Body Fat Lost
Over 2,000 Individual Classes Attended

This was named a "Performance Challenge" because at the end of the day nutrition is about what you put in your body to fuel its performance in life, work, and sport. What you choose to eat is a direct result of the output you will get, whether too much or too little. We hope that everyone was able to realize this in some way during the challenge and make changes that will improve their fitness and life.

After calculating all scores we are excited to announce Team “Super x Friends” as the winner of the 2019 OVC OPEN Performance Challenge! Congratulations to them, as well as all the other amazing teams on their performance.

We additionally want to award two individuals for the improvements they were able to make in nutrition and performance on a personal level throughout the challenge.

Most Improved Performance Results

Thank you again to everyone who participated in this year's challenge. We look forward to doing this event again next year, as well as adding other performance challenges throughout the year for our members to take advantage of.
