Reminder that our FREE TRIAL SESSION is now at 9AM – Al welcome!

3 of our Coaches (Dirk, Sandy and Nash) and 2 of our athletes (Yas and Gareth) are down in Welington this weekend doing their CrossFit Olympic lifting certification with Coach Mike Burgener. Have a great time guys!

Team WOD

In teams of four, complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 24 minutes of:

Run 200 M

Sit ups x 20

Walking Lunges with Dumbbells (15/10kg) 20m

Box Jumps x 20 reps

Teams must rotate stations as a team, with only one team member working at each station. You cannot begin working on your next task until all team members have completed their station tasks and are ready to move one. Thus, you must work as a team, communicate effectively and motivate your teammates to keep moving throughout the 24 minutes.

bootcamp poster 2014 final!

 

We’re very excited about the launch of our bootcamp OXYGEN! This will not be your standard bootcamp where half squats and worming press ups are the norm but instead OXYGEN will be a next level bootcamp where CrossFit standards are coached by qualified trainers. There will be a range of equipment used at OXYGEN bootcamp that will keep the workouts varied and fun! Mobility will also be a priority to keep attendees supple and safe.

Bootcamp could be a great first step for your family and friends that are intimidated by CrossFit and an opportunity for them to meet our awesome team and learn a bunch of the basic movements we do at the box.

You can join in for free! As members, bootcamp will be a great addition to the service we provide to you! All you have to do is let us know if you will be atending the AM or PM classes and thats it! So if you’re feeling like a bodyweight or more metabolic conditioning type workout one day then come to a bootcamp session instead – they will still be high intensity dont you worry!

 

Olympic Lifting

7X1 Mid-Hang Snatches @ 80% – rest 60-90 sec. (Do not go above 80%)

This week will be a brief de-load, then we’ll load for another three weeks before de-laoding the final week before the Open. Next week we’ll start discussing when we’ll schedule the Open workouts, and – if necessary – retests. I cannot believe how close the season is!

The 2014 CrossFit Open season officially begins now for Andfit! If you dont know what the Open is, check out these videos:

-


The Open is the biggest event for us all year and we want you all to be part of the experience! You miss out on something amazing if you dont jump in. (If you dont feel ready for the Open have a chat to a coach before making a descision on it). We will also be running a in house Open at the same time that will have multiple scaling options for all levels.

Last year was our first year taking part in the Open and we had 54 people signed up (we only had like 60 members) and we came 131st in Australasia out of around 300 teams! Can we go top 100 this year? I KNOW WE CAN!

Over the next 8 weeks we will basically be in pre-season mode. This, just like a rugby or netball team in pre-season, will involve much more actually playing the sport, especially in relation to the Open style workouts. We’ll do a bunch of classic couplets and tripplets (common during the Open) and we’ll start running some heats with a partner taking you through the WOD. Its gonna be a fun time!

The beauty of getting ready for the Open is that there is not an exponential amount of things to prepare for. As a matter of fact, Anders Larson’s analysis of what’s to come this year, shows that there have only been fourteen total movements used in the last three years. This, in comparison to the eight billion movements used in the last three Games, makes preparation at least a little easier.

Open Movement Utilization Estimates 2014

 

So get excited and put these dates in your diary:

16th January (NZ): Registration opens   /   28th February (NZ): First WOD anounced
