Nutrition: Through our nutrition review process we have found that there are a lot of people listing the fat contained in their protein in the fat column of their food diary. To clarify, there is an assumed fat content in your protein and the fat that we have advised you to eat is in addition to this (so long as you’re eating good quality non processed meats). Don’t be scared to intentionally add healthy fats to your diet – they are a valuable source of calories that won’t spike your blood sugar and even better, meals taste better when cooked in good quality fats.

*On behalf of everyone, get well soon to Tanya M who ruptured her Achilles playing netball on the weekend.

Nutrition: Don’t forget to get those food diaries to us. In person or email is fine – either way, please make the effort to get it to us each week. We are right into the meat (no pun intended) of this challenge and now is the time where we have to hold strong now that the initial excitement of the challenge may have started to fade. Your rewards will be directly proportional to your efforts and
what more reward could you want that the key to good health and wellbeing for the rest of your life!

*10 min cut off – go as heavy as possible within the parameters of the workout.

C. Max reps 10m Shuttle in 2 min.

Nutrition: Hopefully you made if through another weekend of good eating! Those participating in the challenge should have received another email with new recipes and more tips on how to succeed. Our goal for you this week is to pair up with someone else who is doing the challenge and to share some of your experiences with them (recipes, time/money saving tips, where to shop, etc.). Simply talking to someone else who is sharing your journey can be a great motivator.

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:
Power Snatch + Snatch (1+1) – (instructional video)
5 Toes to Bar – (instructional video)
7 Lateral Burpees (over barbell) – (instructional video)
Rest 30 sec.
*The aim for this workout is to maintain approx. 1:1 work/rest. Please keep this in mind when choosing the load the for the snatches. This load should certainly be a challenge but should not require excessive set up time between lifts and should be repeatable in a fatigued state. One the snatches are done, it’s a sprint to the rest break.

Have a great Mothers Day to all of our CrossFit Mum’s!

Don’t forget that the regionals have started. If you’re looking for inspiration look no further than the CrossFit Games website for live streaming all weekend long.

Sorry for the late post.

7.00am – come in for some partner/team WOD awesomeness.

8.00am – bring long socks or wear skins for rope climbing.

News Flash: The maximum temperature today in Hobart was the same as the minimum on the Sunshine Coast and people down there still managed to train CrossFit. Time to harden up people – it’s not that cold.

Nutrition: Please don’t forget that we want to see you with your food diary at least once per week for the duration of the nutrition challenge. This applies even if you think you don’t need it. Let’s stay focussed as we head into another weekend!

For time:
Bear Crawl 100m (10m lengths)
50 Kettlebell Swings 24/16 (one arm/Russian) 25 per side.
50 Thrusters 30/20kg
50 Ring Dips
100 Overhead Lunge 20/10kg plate.

*You may perform this work in any order you like and break up the reps as you like.
*As always, suitable scaling of volume and difficulty will be provided.

Nutrition: It’s great to see noticeable physical changes in some of our challenge participants already – keep up the great work. On the same subject it is important to test and adjust throughout this process. If your nutrition is dialled in correctly we should start to see the positives shortly if not already. If things are not moving in the right direction it is important that we make some tweaks now rather than waiting until the end.
