Hey its that time of the year again! 
The CrossFit Games is upon us and we are participating in the open!


How do you ask?
Well, Athletes at the box have registered on the crossfit games website for the open and yup thats pretty much it.

So click here if you would like to register!

Now you might think, wait a min - what is the open? Well here is the short answer:

The 2015 Reebok CrossFit Games season begins with the online Open. Anyone can sign up to compete in five workouts over five weeks and post their scores online. Last year, the Open reached more than 209,000 athletes from around the world.

You can either perform the Open workout at a participating CrossFit affiliate where you will be judged in person, or you can film your full performance and upload it to YouTube or another video-sharing site. The video will be displayed alongside your score so other CrossFit athletes can be your judge. 

Ok, So now thats convinced you and you're excited. Now what? Do I register? Well lets see, can you handle these 4?

Ok maybe I got a bit carried away but you will need a muscle up and a decently heavy snatch - 60kg for the men, 30kg for the women and (uh-oh) double unders.

Hmmm, ok not so excited anymore, I don't have half those movements. Thats A-ok! Why do you ask? Well because CrossFit HQ has released the scaled division in the open this year. You do not have to register for it (or pay for it). You just turn up to your affiliate (box - us in this case) and you complete the workout.

WOOHOO, NOW THAT EXCITING!


Ok maybe not CAPS exciting, but all the same woohoo!


Anyhoo, We will be running the Open WODs every Sat at 10am (9am Oly Class will run as Normal) and on Mondays at 6.30pm. Anyone who turns up to those classes will be expected to complete the given WOD (open/scaled) so that their scores can be submitted in time.


Well, thats the end of my essay. Have a lovely night and I will see you tomorrow or the day after I suppose ;)

Here's today's WOD
Shoulder prep: Monkey Bar work x 10min
Clean and Jerk: 25 min x 1- 2 reps @ 80-90%

Hi Everyone, the girls and me had a wonderful week away in Fiji. Hope Lauren and Dave looked after you guys well!
The best part about Fiji was their approach to life - No Pressure man, Its Fiji Time. Just relax!
We played day in and day out - snorkelled, paddle boarded, went canoeing and pretty much ran amuck 8-10hrs a day. If only life was like that everyday!
However, we all have lives with families and sadly playtime is more often than not replaced with a monotonous life, lived to make a 'living.'
So lets try and make life a little less boring, a little less tiresome and little more playful. Lets be kids, for at least an hour everyday!

Today's WOD is

1. 10min AMRAP work on hangs/ wrist mobility

2. a. Knee/ Hip mobility - fig 4 Sits - 2 x 10
    b. T-Spine  - Band Pull Aparts - 2 x 10
    c. Protraction Retraction Push Ups - 2 x 10
                                 
3. 'Diane'

21-15-9 reps
Deadlift @100/60kg
Handstand Push-Ups

4. 5min AMRAP - Burpees

P.s. As this is our 1 year anniversary month, there is a 'little' surprise for everyone.

Below is a snippet of Hugh and Adam smashing out the Snatch Burpee WOD from last week

What a massive 5 weeks it has been! People are getting stronger, hitting PBs and pushing their limits. Its great to see. Keep up the hard work boys and girls. One more week, then we break the cycle in week 7 for some light work, which will be more hand balancing and movement focused...should be fun with Coach Dave and Coach (mistress ...ahem) Loz.
Workouts will now be posted regularly to twitter and facebook as well as WODHopper. So you can always keep track!
Keep Moving Monkeys!
