Our eager anticipation for the next big CrossFit competition has been answered: the Team Series is here. This is the Team Series’ fourth season; and this year, the event (presented by Compex and sponsored by FitAid) is using pairs: two men, two women, or mixed — making it even easier than trying to round up teams of four to complete events. Pairs will take part in two sets of workouts over the next two weeks, from September 20 to October 2. The first week’s events have been announced, and as usual, CrossFit isn’t messing around.

True to the world of CrossFit, there are Rx’d and scaled versions of each workout, as well as age groups for all divisions (which happen to be the same as the Open). Pairs must complete the event in front of a judge at a participating affiliate, or film themselves instead. Here’s what we can expect for week one:

Event 1

9-15-21 reps for time of:
Synchronized thrusters
Synchronized bar-facing burpees

Event 2

For time:
120 double-unders, each, relay
120 chest-to-bar pull-ups, total, sets of 15
120 hang power snatches, total, sets of 15
120 double-unders, each, relay

Event 3

50 synchronized wall-ball shots
30 cleans
50 synchronized wall-ball shots
20 cleans
50 synchronized wall-ball shots
10 cleans

Event 4

100-cal. row, total
100 toes-to-bars, total

There is plenty of prize money to give away to the top teams — $101,250, to be more precise — and first place gets a whopping $10,000.

While the first round of events has already been announced, there’s still time to sign up! You have until Monday, September 25 to register, complete these workouts and send in your scores. Grab a buddy and get in on the action. The events for week two will be revealed in a live announcement on September 27 at 4:50 p.m. PT. Stay tuned for more!
