    PENALTIES

    Penalties may be applied to the athlete’s total score if CrossFit HQ conducts a review of your video. CrossFit will review videos that receive significant public downvotes.

    • The following penalties will be applied to the athlete’s total score:
      • False start, leaves the rings before “go” = 10-second penalty
      • Muscle-up no-rep, to include facing away from the camera or having an obstructed view = 5-second penalty
      • Thruster no-rep, to include facing away from the camera = 10-second penalty
      • Receiving assistance with the barbell or rings = 5-second penalty for each instance
    • If an athlete advances before completing the specified number of reps or meters/calories, their score will stop at the last correctly completed rep.
      • For example, the athlete is required to do 12 reps but moves on at Rep 11. The athlete’s score will be 11, regardless of the total number of repetitions completed after moving forward incorrectly.
    • Editing a video submission in ANY way (to include adding a clock) may result in a 0 score, invalidation, or further sanction.

    See Section 4, “Online Semifinals,” in the 2026 CrossFit Games Rulebook for video review penalty information.
