5-8th April: It's been a while...

So, it’s been a while since we’ve had an in depth update of the goings on at the CFR Box. Actually, it’s been about a week. But what a week it’s been.. We had Training Day 2 lastSunday… more on that later. This and last Saturday, we had what’s now become the Saturday Games Open WOD smackdown, andt more on this later too.

 

This was all around the usual training which I’ll give you an update on now.

 

Following the Monday Midline mash up, Tuesday saw the guys working on some strength:

And

The gang worked on some tempo pull ups 5x6 to start before hitting the classice that is Helen.
