Open Prep: 2026 Programming Continues into Phase 3 - E.381


Listen Later

In this episode of the Misfit Podcast, Drew and Paige walk through Open Prep / Phase 3 — what it is, why it’s structured the way it is, and how athletes should actually execute it.

They cover:

  • How to choose the right program and track
  • Why stimulus matters more than chasing scores
  • How to use gears, instructions, and athlete IQ properly
  • Mandatory vs non-mandatory work (and how to personalize)
  • The role of accessory work, volume, and repetition
  • Why buying into the narrative of Open Prep actually matters

This episode is part programming breakdown, part coaching philosophy — and a reminder that execution, not just fitness, determines results.

If you’re heading into the Open, Quarterfinals, or just want to train with more intention, this is required listening.
