Ok ok, I have a few more opportunities for those who haven’t collected equipment to…collect equipment. Timings are below:
Tuesday 29th: 12:00 - 13:00
Wednesday 30th: 18:00 - 19:00

A repeat workout is coming at you for tomorrow. Three simple movements, and ones I remember doing in the pissing rain and quickly all because of the…pissing rain!
It was on day 25 of lockdown 1.0. That to me, seems entirely bonkers. Of course due to the fact that we were told that we would be in lockdown for a few weeks and well…here we are, 9 months later and still on zoom.

WoD - Boxing Day Bank Holiday

WoD - Boxing Day Bank Holiday

Evening all! Here’s to hoping that you guys are all at least not drunk, but possibly hung over. And if you are still drunk and not yet hung over…that it is kind to you when it arrives.

Please, please, please, could I make one more request for you all to bring down your used and messed up trainers. I know that you all have spanking new nanos and metcons, and maybe even no bulls or inov8s…soon to be dazzling your neighbouring CrossFitter with their shininess. You don’t need the others, but we need to protest the hell out of these latest restrictions by using them.

I will be at the gym if any of you are able to drop them off, on New Years Eve at 09:30. And, at other times prior to that TBC.

Please help.

Anyway, this little number should blow any cobwebs away!

Class time
Zoom: 10:00am

CrossFit Cardiff WoD
4 Rounds, each for time:
12 Front squats
6 “Bar” facing burpees
12 Push press
6 “Bar” over burpees

6 Burpees
Rest 4 minutes between rounds

Loading
1 Barbell 50/35kg
2 Dumbbells 50/35lbs

WoD - Wednesday 23rd December, 2020

We did today’s workout in Lockdown 1.0, on the 2nd of June. I think that was the last time I did a workout that was shorter than 15mins! Man the assault bike is going to hurt so badly!

U.S. Army Specialist Donald L. Nichols, 21, of Shell Rock, Iowa, assigned to the 1st Battalion, 133rd Infantry Regiment, Iowa Army National Guard, based in Waterloo, Iowa, died April 13, 2011, in Laghman province, Afghanistan, of wounds suffered when insurgents attacked his unit using an improvised explosive device. He is survived by his mother and stepfather, Roger and Becky Poock; his father and stepmother, Jeff and Jeanie Nichols; and his brothers, Nick and Joe.
