LIFT - 4x2 Front Squat
CrossFit Darwin held it's first ever 'On Ramp' session today and it was a huge success!! It's the way we teach CrossFit to new members now, instead of by just going through the fundamentals. It means they will spend longer in a learning environment before joining in with the normal group session. Every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday at 6pm John will take the regular crew and I take the new guys for 'On Ramp'.
Here is a story of a huge increase in fitness - Leneice started at CFD about 9 months ago. Started on the black band for pullups - that's the widest band. Tonight she did 4 pullups (kipping) in the orange band (second thinnest) - so proud of you Leneice - and your WOD tonight rocked- 4x 60kg cleans and non stop running for the 800m. Imagine where you will be in another 9 months!!
ReplyDeleteIf anyone is wondering CFD is still open for all sessions this afternoon - if we do get a cyclone and we get stuck there are plenty of beers in the fridge - we will be fine!
ReplyDeleteTough workout... 15:09 w/90kg
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the cyclone training..

Hi Damien
ReplyDeleteYep, a tough one, deadlifts and running is a great combo.
The few of us that made it to the gym did the run in strong winds and pouring rain - it was fun!
Yea Leneice! Congrats and keep it up!
ReplyDeleteIts good to know you guys are well stocked in the event of a Cyclone. stay safe!
Michael! My favourite Californian. Great to hear from you. We survived the cyclone! It was just a little one. Hope you are good and planning your next trip back here!
ReplyDeleteJust a little one?!?! I read you got 640mm of rain in 72 hours. My home town got 600mm in 2010!!! Sounds like a big one to me. I am well and totally up for a return trip!
