Well it still really hurts, it’s still really hard and always leaves a mark. Hopefully not for too long and you are all able to get back into some good training!

With Murph being long and vile, we will get back by attacking a short and heavy couplet… good luck!

WoD - Wednesday 27th March, 2019

What an amazing day for getting your butts out in the sunshine, hanging out (maybe with your wangers out) but definitely on cool things like motorbikes, or in (or outside) CrossFit gyms playing with rugby balls, spike balls or maybe a dude of a puppy!?
Obviously after you have smashed the living hell out of yourselves with a workout of course. And what better than to do one named after one of your all time favourite folk?

Now I could spend a significant amount of time waffling on about how much of a stud Hannah is, but none of you really have a spare few hours to read it all.
She’s cool, hot as hell, loves people and helping them, kicks butt on open workouts and can make a pretty decent cup of tea! You all love her, but likely a little less after this…

Stagger over to the whiteboard and record your blistering scores with your blistered hands…

I’m sure Conroy has a “better” picture of Han somewhere

So how was that? Improvement on the newly learnt skill of attempting to prevent yourself from slamming your face into the ground while sprinting forwards on your hands? There will be more and more of it, don't you worry.

20/15 Calorie Assault Bike
12 Alternating Dumbbell snatch (50/35lbs)

So anyone still sore from Monday? As stated, I am mildly apologetic for putting you through it, but once the pain goes, you will have a set of buns to be proud of! For sure! 

The sun is out and pumping, and it feels so fracking good...until you get a whiff of Ash post lunge! Unless of course, he sprays himself to death with Lynx! Then, all you get is the effect!! 
Once its in, you ladies are screwed!! 

Now tomorrow I am introducing something cool, it will be a challenge, but trust me..fun!

CrossFit Cardiff WoD

Teams of 3 will complete as many rounds and reps as possible within 10mins of:
6 Power Cleans (100/70kg)
6m Handstand Walk
12 Pull ups

The workout should be split as needed, one team mate per round is to perform the HSW.

Anyone recognise that handsome guy in the banner picture?? Yep...it's Rich Froning! 

Posting your rounds to the whiteboard is the only way that the world will know that you are still alive, so please do so!

Did it feel amazing? As good as it did in 2014, if you are old and bold enough to have done it back then? I seem to remember wanting to soil myself throughout, and (when I get chance to do it) I can't see there being any change this time around. 

Did anyone beat their score? 

Tomorrow we combine a few movements into a tough strength test. How heavy can you go?
