Hi All,News this week wasn’t what we had all hoped for.  Unfortunately this means another 3 weeks for us to hang on and see what the government has planned for phasing us back in.  There are many businesses also in the same boat, it’s not an ideal situation for any of us but it is necessary to be compliant with the guidance that has been laid out.  What we can do is meet up in small groups within our community as stated in the guidelines: ‘a household can meet up outdoors up to 4 other households at a time - up to 15 people in total.’  So if you need that extra push or are tired of solo training get into the park and meet some friends!  Certainly healthier than meeting up at the pub!We have put in a very large T-shirt order to celebrate coming out of lockdown hopefully soon!  Check out the design below.  We have every colour under the sun from canyon pink, plum, burgundy, black, heather blue and lava grey.  There are tanks and T’s :)  We also have ordered some branded facemasks and towels!

To view the workouts and the descriptions click here SHOWER REFURB - ARCH 1 When we first started CrossFit in days of yore (2008/2009) it was extremely rare that a CrossFit box would have a working toilet. I remember attending my level 1 in London during a cold December and using a portaloo outside the door to the gym. It was dark after the course and the attendees had to leave the door open just to see what they were doing. Back then, that was a part of the appeal - that it was about training not comfort. Nonetheless, the lack of showers represented a major hurdle to getting members into the gym; as one of the peak class times was immediately before work. People look weird enough leaving classes all [...]
