'Fill In The Blanks': Dave Castro Teases Another CrossFit Games Event
'Fill In The Blanks': Dave Castro Teases Another CrossFit Games Event
Dave Castro teases another 2017 CrossFit Games event with muscle ups and cleans and maybe some other stuff?
Dave Castro and his whiteboard are back again, and this time he's got a riddle for you:

In case you can't read it, it says:
8 rounds for time
4 muscle ups
2 cleans

Castro is putting up a Rogue Fitness Castro barbell if you can correctly "fill in the blanks male/female." Let's take another look:
He specifically says to fill in the blanks male/female, which could mean several things. It could mean that there are two more movements, which differ between men and women. Or it could mean those four blanks are the men's and women's weights, which is what I think is the case.
If those are the weights, then each of those blanks could be separate bars and this is a ladder event. Last year's clean ladder ended with two reps at 325lb for the men and 215lb for the women, so this could end at the same weight and still be insane to see athletes hit that bar for four reps.
On the other hand, if those are the weights it could be M:??? and F:???. In that case, I'd guess something like 305/205.
They could also be other movements, like 4 bar muscle ups + 2 overhead squats.
Good luck guessing!
