Get ready, Cerus community! The CerusBrix Open 2025 fitness competition is live, pulling together athletes across all levels to tackle five powerhouse workouts.
From sprint speed to raw strength, mental toughness to agility under pressure—every workout is designed to test your grit, athleticism, and fitness versatility.
Let’s break down what’s coming:
CerusBrix Open: Speed Workout
“Sprint Showdown” • 8 minutes, 4 rounds
- 60 seconds of as many 60‑ft sprints as you can
- 60 seconds rest
- Record tiebreak times in rounds 1 & 4 after 4 lengths
- Standard: Both feet shoot behind the line and one hand touches ground to count—unless sprinting to finish
This one is pure burn: rapid, relentless, anaerobic power under fatigue.
CerusBrix Open: Endurance Workout
“Calories & Chaos” • 20‑minute cap
- 70/60/50/40 cal row → ski → bike (by division)
- Every 2:00, drop and do 7 burpee‑overs (bar on floor for Intermediate)
