Tomorrow evening instead of the 19.15 WOD there will be a mobility session with Jonny Kilpatrick of Physio Effect. There are still places available on this weekend's fundamentals refresher session: If you struggle with any of the elements that you experience in the WODs, please take this opportunity to refine your skill set.
Our coaching team would like to offer all of our members the opportunity to attend a two day fundamentals refresher course at CrossFit Glasgow this coming weekend. The purpose of the event is to cover the basic skills required for CrossFit training in concise and comprehensive format to establish and maintain more effective movement in the basic lifts and gymnastic elements. Coaching input will be delivered by both our senior and our junior coaches with time and resources available for smaller group work as well as in a main class dynamic. Spaces will be limited to the first 30 individuals and will be appropriate to any stage of progression from beginner to advanced. The course will develop the movements from the ground up and will address body position/posture, range of motion and effective movement patterns. This event will serve not only as a way for us to enhance the skills and knowledge base of our athletes but will also allow us to further enhance the coaching skills of our staff and will hopefully form the basis of a new route of progression for new entrants to CrossFit Glasgow's main membership. The event will cover 2x 3 hour periods from 14.00 to 17.00 on Saturday and Sunday of this week. That's six hours of dedicated coaching time in a fun and informative big group setting. The two day event will cost only £10 a head and we will provide snacks and some drinks at the end of each day.
