We believe there is no better training regime than CrossFit to prepare us for life or give us the ability and confidence to throw our hand at any new physical challenge. This the exciting part “Spice of life” – Don’t let your fitness limit your quality of life?

Our quick fitness assessment –
No 1. Daily living should be easy. Playing with your kids, walking up/down stairs, lifting daily items. If any task feel difficult or limiting this is dramatically impacting your quality of life.
No 2. “Spice of Life” Do you have the physical ability and confidence to take on a new challenge? surfing, rock climbing, whatever your heart desires. This is the fun and adventure – this is living!!!

If you haven’t checked out the CrossFit Games 2022 you are missing out!! An epic weekend, definitely worth the watch.

Reminder: Our 8 week strict pull-up challenge has started.
The goal is to develop our strict pulling capacity- whether increasing our max strict pull-ups or working towards your first strict pull-up. Consistency is key and we encourage everyone to join in.
Rules: Establish your base line (Max strict or max Flexed Arm Hang) & add you name to the board.
– Actively work towards your movement 3 times per week. Tick off each time you complete (should be minimum of 3 at the end of the week)
– Do this for 8 weeks
– Remeasure.
Please hold other members accountable- names on the board. I am excited to see how much we can improve.

9 Front Squats
‘X’ Toes to Bar

What a day in the box yesterday as we retested our OHS (THE KING OF SQUATS) after a 6 week progression. We could not have been happier with the efforts over the past 6 weeks in improving quality of movement. The personal best were amazing, but most importantly the transference to all other movement. Well done crew!!!
