WoD - Friday 1st April 2016

Pinch...punch...first of the month. This is no April fools...

CrossFit Cardiff Partner WoD

'Big Sexy'

For time:
10 Rounds of:
6 Deadlifts (140/100kg)
6 Burpees
5 Cleans* (100/70kg)
5 C2B Pull Ups
4 Thrusters (70/50kg)

Athletes will segment the work as they see fit - with one athlete moving at a time - the other resting. Unless in a mixed gender pairing, one bar shall be used, de-loaded and re-loaded as dictated by each movement. 

Any style of clean is permitted, so long as the load is taken from the floor: power; squat or split.

Sgt. Lance "Big Sexy" McLean, 38. of Biloxi, Mississippi, died on June 29, 2013, from a gunshot wound he sustained in the line of duty on June 28, 2013. Prior to his death, McLean served as a Sergeant with the Sheriff's Office, and as a member of the SWAT Team in Hood County, Texas.

He is survived by his wife, Katy; and two children, Abigail and Quinton.

WoD - Thursday 31st March 2016

Tough WoD today, good work on hammering through it. There were some awesome looking HSPUs and big leaps on load and improved movement with the cleans.

Push yourself, never be afraid to fail and turn the volume down on that little voice inside your head. Regularly do things that scare you. 

Now tomorrow...think like Mo

CrossFit Cardiff WoD

Some big loads and huge PBs being thrown about today, nice job all! Let's see what happens when we couple some moderately heavy cleans with a tricky gymnastics movement. 

CrossFit Cardiff WoD

I'm thinking about organising a calendar, with pictures of you guys for each month. We have already had some interest with the month of April having being already snapped up, picture displayed below...

WoD - Tuesday 29th March 2016

I hope you guys have enjoyed your Easter break. Time to get back to the box, with normal class timings, to smash yourself clean of Easter eggs or millionaire shortbreads! 😉 

CrossFit Cardiff WoD  

A: Snatch 

1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1

B:  Snatch

5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5

The focus of part A is to establish a new 1RM. Take 75% of part A and keep that load for part B , work on effciency of movement for these reps. Take as much rest as needed to make them unbroken sets.

Please post loads to comments...

WoD - Friday 25th March 2016

Next year we are going to reconsider programming workouts ourselves during the open. 

CrossFit Cardiff WoD

16.5

21-18-15-12-9-6-3 reps for time of:

Thrusters
Burpees 

Men use 95 lb.
Women use 65 lb.

WOD - Thu 24th March 2016

Start each round with a 400m run

21-15-9

  • CTB Pull Ups
  • Power Cleans (60kg/40kg)

(so it's 400m run, 21 CTB, 21 PC, 400m run etc etc finishing on 9 PC's)

Here's a Venn diagram that has no relevance to the above.

WOD - Wed 23rd March 2016

Easter Weekend Opening Hours.

Good Friday - 6.30am - 8am & 10am - 12pm 

Saturday - Usual hours (10am -12pm)

Easter Sunday - Closed (But check FB as I may be around to open for a couple of hours in the morning)

Easter Monday - 10am-12pm (Although Davs will probably be around in the PM if anyone wants to do 16.5 who didn't have the chance to do it Friday)

a) Squat Therapy

b) AMRAP 20 Minutes

  • 10 Thrusters (35kg/25kg) 
  • 10 Burpees
  • 10 Box Jumps (24"/20")

There is a chance that this WOD may bare some resemblance to 16.5 given 2 of the three of these movements haven't come up in the open this year yet.  Do what you will with that information.

Dave Castro is fully aware that you are completing these workouts on Friday nights, known as he is ensuring that your forearms and biceps look the business for when you hit the town later on tonight.

For forearms a little less like Popeye, listen to The Director of Training, original "Nasty Girl" and complete and utter badass legend, Nicole Carroll..."use your hook grips!"
