Ranking WOs

Constantly varied programming built from functional exercises executed at high intensity is the key to CrossFit’s physiological advantage. Our distillation of load, range of motion, exercise, power, work, line of action, flexibility, speed, and all pertinent metabolic's to a single value – usually time.
Public performance ranking in group sessions for each workout has seen the motivation and acceleration of improvement of those less physically capable by temperament, training, or natural limitation. Ranking has seemingly done more for bottom performers than top performers.
The skill elements included in CrossFit Conditioning furthers the sense of sport that so motivates individuals. CrossFit feels like sport!
