Quarterfinals Are Back: What to Expect and How to Prep - E.387

Quarterfinals are back, and we’re breaking down exactly what that means for you.

In this episode, we dive into what to expect from the 2026 Quarterfinals based on past data, how to prepare (whether you're following Misfit programming or not), and how we structure our Quarterfinals peaking phase to maximize execution and intensity. We cover volume distribution, workout styles, movement trends, athlete IQ, and how to navigate prep during the Open.

We also get into:

• Why Quarterfinals returning is a big deal for the sport
• The in-person semifinal structure debate
• Movement patterns that consistently show up
• How to approach redos and stress during Open season
• What makes comp prep different from standard phase training
• Sprintervals, in-WOD lifting, and why stimulus is king

If you're aiming for Quarterfinals, chasing Semifinals, or just want to understand how to think like a competitive athlete for the next six weeks, this episode lays it out clearly and practically.

Quarterfinals peaking phase begins February 16th. Execution starts now.
