Was CrossFit 2003 Easier?
December 19, 2008 · Filed Under work out of the day
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?

That is a super question. I was thinking this yesterday. If one started CF a year ago would the WOD’s get harder to him or her. I figured that you could do the same WOD every year. The issue would intensity and drive. I know that I am 2 wks into CF so I am not really sure what I am doing. So I am not going as hard or as intense as I could. The next time I see that Filthy 50 on the board I am going to have something for ‘em.
I am sure HQ changes the WOD as people around them improve and become more comfortable doing them.
