Monday 24 June
This Saturday is our Warehouse Wods. Its our first ever competition, and we’d love for you all to be involved! The workouts are really not that scary, and you can all compete. You’ll see a big white board at the entrance of the CAGE this week, put your name on there if you are keen to compete. If you are not sure what category to enter, see the amazing video below or visit the warehouse wods page to get a breakdown of the workouts. Or ask your coach what category to enter. If you really don’t want to compete that is totally fine. We need hands to make the day run smooth. If you can be a judge or help with the set up and pack down on the day that would be awesome! Let me know if you want to be involved.
