WoD - Wednesday 21st October, 2020

Luckily, and just in time for another lockdown, we have had 5 Rogue echo bikes delivered to the box. You are welcome, although you are likely going to wish that lockdown had lasted longer when you get your hands on the evil f**ckers!

If you like the assault bike, you’re going to think that these are the ginger, bastard step child!

For time:
12 - 9 - 6
Thrusters (60/40kg)
Burpee box jumps (24/20”)

Please get your times up to the whiteboard once you have finished this horrendous sprint!

So it’s nearly there, and the only reason it’s not is that I am awaiting more pieces! And, importantly…I didn’t die, nor did I destroy my knuckles face (anymore anyway) or any other body parts. The fact that I am writing this pre-event is tempting fate but I enjoy peeing into the wind!

I am of course rambling on about the rig! Once complete we will have four additional sets of high rings and two safe spots for bar muscle ups. All it took for me was to revert back to my inner child and remember how I used to build meccano sets!

CrossFit Cardiff WoD

For time:
10 - 8 - 6 - 4 - 2 Bar muscle ups
5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 Squat Snatch (60/40kg*)

*Male bar increases 10kg
Female bar increases 5kg

An aggressive loading, get after what you can and record those times to the whiteboard…

If only they had the Ducati Desmosedici when I was a kid!

WoD - Wednesday 17th July, 2019

Some new additions are coming to the already bad ass rig! Gone are the days of queuing for high ring muscle ups, not with the new trawlers attached. Folk will be able to jump on up, full of the fatigue provided by the other movements within the workout. No longer will there be anywhere to hide…”no no, you go, I’ve got to get some chalk otherwise i’d be straight up!” All you have to do is jump!

Of course, all of the above is being written in hope as the parts are only scheduled for delivery today. What might well happen is that I end up watching video after video on a rapidly dying iPhone battery waiting for someone to stitch my face back together…just like the last time I adjusted that rig! 👍🏼

WoD - Friday 9th March, 2018

Who knows what the sadistic mind of Dave Castro will come out with, while the most of us normal humans are asleep in bed. I just seriously hope, for you luscious lot, that it is not overhead dumbbell lunges and toes to bar! I mean there is no WAY that he would dare to program running! 

What I am hoping for is wall balls, and not because I can do them at the minute, but because was have some bad ass new targets to use. 
On that, if you do use them, PLEASE put the jpegs on the other side so as to protect the wall balls and more importantly...your faces! 

Oh, and just in case you weren't aware, Rogue Europe are legends!
