S7E218: Crossfit Quarterfinal Workouts: Tips and Strategy


Listen Later

We break down the 2026 CrossFit Quarterfinal workouts with Bobby Wallum and Dan Coda and focus on what wins: clear plans, clean execution, and a mindset that doesn’t leak energy into excuses. We talk strategy for athletes chasing semifinals and for athletes who simply want their best weekend, then finish with simple ways to stay calm when nerves hit. 
• why we refuse to bash programming and focus on controllables 
• how to think about workout order without over-stressing 
• Workout 1 shuttle run turnarounds, overhead squat decisions, and why warm-up matters 
• Workout 2 choose-your-own-adventure rep schemes, grip fatigue, and when to prioritize muscle-ups 
• how the Workout 2 tiebreak can change your plan if you might not finish 
• Workout 3 deadlift strategy, double-under mindset, and when to push for tiebreak 
• practical logistics like multiple barbells and smart loading help 
• Workout 4 row pacing, clean and jerk singles, and strict handstand push-up failure management 
• closing advice on nerves, tunnel vision, and being proud of the effort 
Hit us up if you need any help.
