WoD - Tuesday 6th August, 2019

Well wasn’t that fun! Not the first part as guess what…sprints really, really hurt! But also not the second, as, with no warning or knowledge then no one can sandbag! Sorry not sorry, but you actually have another sadist to blame!

Tomorrow we have something far more fun for you. Kind of. A heavy assed piece, but, it is all the lifts and therefore is gassy and can be as frustrating as whipping the bad of your head on double unders.

Within 30 minutes and for max weight complete one bear complex:
1 Power Clean
1 Front Squat
1 Jerk
1 Back Squat
1 Jerk (from behind the neck)

Although not advised when at maximal loading, a squat clean thruster into a thruster from behind the neck is allowed. Have fun and get those loads on the board please…

WoD - Wednesday 8th May, 2019

I have literally no idea what to write about.

Typically, I write these posts in the heat of the moment, so when I have seen a workout gone down and know just what folk looked like, if they suffered…blah blah! Usually, picking on some poor sole who went entirely chicken oriental in the first round and utterly wrecked themselves in true, gold old fashion, CrossFit spirit (all in the name of banter you understand)!
However, it is currently Saturday night, and I am in a hotel room in Manchester with a cup of tea (super cool I know), having absolutely no idea how much the last two days brutalised you all. I can only guess.

Badly!

Anyway, it’s test day! We need a mark in the sand for what’s to come. And so…have at it!
