WOD Saturday 22nd Oct 2011 CrossFit Glasgow
Cindy: 20 Minute AMRAP 5 Pull Ups 10 Push Ups 15 Squats Lifting Shoes Many of the athletes from the box have already improved their performance in the Olympic and powerlifting aspects of their CrossFit development by using lifting shoes. Lifting shoes provide a stable base and an incline toward the heel. This allows greater range of motion at the hip relative to the placement of the feet in lifts such as the squat, snatch and clean. Athletes are therefore able to get deeper into the squat position whilst maintaining a stable heel thereby making these demanding lifts manageable. We have had a kind offer from the good folks at Glasgow's Greaves Sports. If there is sufficient interest from the members, they will come down during one of our Olympic lifting classes with a range of lifting shoes for you to try and to buy at a moderate discount. Please let us know if you are interested and we'll confirm ASAP.

Off the back of another great parkour session. You all performed really well yesterday, keep up the intensity, except you Lesley, no more self-harm on our boxes! We are thinking of putting up a 'Goals' board for the next 3 months, leading up until Christmas the gym is focussing on strength, pull-ups and double unders. So lets get the ball rolling, post any goals you want to set for the next 3 months to comments. Also if you hope to take part in the Games Open and perhaps wish to help us build an affiliate team let us know!
