Was CrossFit 2003 Easier?

December 19, 2008 · Filed Under work out of the day · 1 Comment 

So, to mix things up a little (the CrossFit way, right?) I decided to drop waaaay back in the CrossFit HQ archives and pull a WOD from 2003.

2003 WOD

Three rounds of:

  • 400 meter run
  • 21 back squats, 135 lbs

WOD summary

It was tough. But it wasn’t as tough as many of the WODs that appear on the site this year (or last year). This leads me to wonder if CrossFit standards have increased over time as the faithful have improved.
In other words, is getting involved in CrossFit now harder for new trainees than it might have been if they started in the earlier years?
