We hope you all had a safe and happy Easter. We will be at the gym from 3:00pm-4:00pm. Come in for Open Gym and work off some of your Easter Goodness.

For anyone keen for a workout I will be heading to beach entrance 229 (see map) at 7:00am for a short session.

All are welcome.

Update: Chris & Marie are training at 3.30pm today – the workout will be a team rowing based workout. The specifics will depend on how many people turn up – all are welcome.

EMOM for 20 minutes:
1 Power Snatch
2 Snatch Balance
3 Overhead Squat
*The aim for this workout is to increment your weight four times across the 20 rounds. For rounds 1-5 use a load that you can move easily (about 50% of 1RM Snatch) and then add weight at rounds 6-10, 11-15 and 16-20. The last 5 rounds should be close to maximal with consideration given to the volume or work and movements used.

Post loads and rounds completed successfully to comments.

6 x 400m Run
*Aim not to deviate more than 10 seconds from your fastest time.
*Work:Rest = 1:1

Before you decide to make today a rest day have a think about the overall concept of what we’re training for – increased ability in a wide variety of disciplines. This means that we must workout short and long, light and heavy, inside and outside, in the cold and the heat and with a broad range of exercises.
Like it or not, running is one of the most effective ways to develop cardio vascular conditioning and represents a weakness in most peoples repertoire. So, ignore that little voice in your head that is telling you otherwise and get your running shoes on!

Happy Birthday to Jesse Saliba today!
