RECAP Bologna Throwdown: all wods and winners

The curtain closes at the Pederzini sports center in Calderara di Reno e La Bologna Throwdown 2023 comes to an end. Put down your weapons, or rather the barbells, there two days in the Emilian capital crowned Alberto Perillo of the CrossFit® NTN box and Angelica Schivo of the Warriors & Barbells box (in the RX categories), after very high intensity tests, appreciated by all athletes, but highly selective.

With so many categories, well organized heats, impeccable judges and tough WODs appreciated by all, this first edition ended in the best possible way: with more than positive opinions from the staff, the public and the athletes.

They were 2 intense days (March 25-26), which entertained and did not miss anything! Athletes have been tested through and through. If you haven't followed it, you can find everything about it Bologna Throwdown Instagram page and also ALL of them interviews with athletes on our profile.

In the grand finale, not only the elites had to sweat the leadership until the last rep of the last WOD due to the high competition rate, but also for the regulars, masters and teams the victory was not so obvious!

Now we reveal all the winners, but first read what challenges the athletes had to overcome:
