🏝️💪A quick reminder about Island Time Throwdown, our upcoming competition we’re hosting on October 26th. We’re eager to see athletes from our gym showcase their skills, and we’d greatly appreciate any volunteers willing to help out as judges. Your support will make this event a success!
We’re in the midst of some classic CrossFit programming with a mix of couplets and triplets this week that blend weights and conditioning. While these workouts may look straightforward on paper, expect them to pack a punch and get your heart rate up🔥. This week’s strength focus includes:
- Monday: Deadlifts
- Wednesday: Snatch work

Additionally, our gymnastics sessions will hone in on the Ring Muscle-Up, emphasizing efficiency with this challenging movement.
