Frequently asked questions

What is a no rep?
It's a repetition that doesn't meet the required technical standard — such as not reaching squat depth or not locking out — so a judge doesn't count it.
What causes a no rep in CrossFit?
Common causes include not reaching full range of motion, missing a required standard like chin over the bar, or breaking a movement's form rules.
Can you redo a no rep?
Yes — a no rep simply doesn't count toward your total, so you have to perform the repetition again correctly to get credit.
