A: Snatch Technique B: 3-3-3 Snatch Grip Deadlift Tonight at 19.15 we will be hosting Ray Cavanagh's Olympic Lifting class. For those who attended today's WODs this will be an opportunity to further develop your existing competence in the snatch; while those who are already realtively proficient in the Olympic lifts can practice their lifts under the watchful eyes of Scotland's best. This Saturday at 12.30 Mariam Viray will be running a Pilates class focussing on core strength, balance and flexibility. It will set you back only £3 and will be challenging even for those who consider themselves fairly accomplished athletes. We are all eagerly awaiting the results of the Level 1 cert that went down in Wales this past weekend. Two of CFG's finest: Dougie Eatherington and Fabio Cibelli both took the plunge. Fingers crossed.

Physio Effect and Private Medical

By |2013-06-30T19:00:46+01:00June 30th, 2013|WOD|

Jonny and Danny of Physio Effect Glasgow offer a range of clinical and therapeutic services out of their clinic at CrossFit Glasgow and as Health Professions Council registered Physiotherapists are able to offer these services under private medical insurance. Many of you will have a private medical insurance policy through work or privately for your family and are probably unaware that this will likely offer coverage for physiotherapy services. If you have Private Medical Insurance with Physiotherapy cover and are injured, often all that is required is a letter from your G.P. referring you for physiotherapy treatment. Provided you have called the insurance company and have an authorisation code for your treatments, we will take care of the insurance billings. This leaves you free of the financial burden associated with a number of physiotherapy treatments that can be required to fix your injury and return you to optimal levels of performance. Physio Effect  are recognised providers for PruHealth, Aviva, Simply Health, WPA and Cigna. Jonny can also provide services to Bupa and AXA - PPP outside of Physio Effect. If you think this may apply to you and are interested in finding out more please do not hesitate to contact us atinfo@physioeffect.co.uk.

Good Luck!
