Who is CrossFit for?
CrossFit is for anyone with the determination and commitment to learning skills that will improve their fitness dramatically. All the workouts can be scaled to any fitness level. The fundemental movements do not change just reps, weight and time, so it is accessible to everybody!
The CrossFit Method
Practice and train all major lifts; deadlift, squats, clean and jerk, and snatch. Master the gymnastic movements; pull ups, dips, push ups, sit ups, handstands. Row, run, bike and swim. Now mix them up into as many different combinations as you can imagine and do them at high intensity for short durations. Avoid routine! Learn and play new sports. - Founder of CrossFit, Greg Glassman.
Nutrition
Eat meat and fish, vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starchy carbohydrate and no sugar - Greg Glassman, Founder of CrossFit. For further information look at the Zone Diet.

A Birthday WOD
Today was Barnaby s birthday so have a look at the workout and see if you can guess his age!!
330m Row
33 Burpees
33 Pull ups
3 rounds
3 minutes rest between each round, starting from the moment the person is finished, so everyone was motivating eachother so they got their rest.
We also had fun with the warm up, we went outside and did Dumbell farmers walks, run and touch floor with the DB and walking lunges. We also took turns at walking with the slosh pipe.
Great effort by everyone, well done and well done for not puking Barnaby!
It may catch on!
Tuesday was another hot one so we stayed in the shade.
Altho it didn't really make the workout any easier, I don't think.
5 Ring dips
10 Burpees
15 Sit ups
amrap 15 mins
Loving Johns recovery position!
