Happy Sunday gym fam, we hope everyone has been having a great weekend! 🦐☀️Shrimp Fest parade will be this Thursday, 5/02! We will be meeting at Central Park on the island, our float is number 86. So when coming out to meet us that’s the spot number to look for. Parking is limited so if we can, let’s meet at the gym and carpool. Parade starts promptly at 6:00pm and the roads will be closed so make sure to get there in time to park and get on the float! We still need help decorating the float, so if you can meet earlier than 5:30 we would appreciate the help! The candy donation box is still at the front of the gym🍬.
So Much Fitness Coming In May! The first full week of May is going to start on a high note as we test our 3RM for the OH/Front Squat & Bench Press! Once the strength cycle is done, we go back to GPP lifting, which will consist of barbell complexes and strength days, but there will not be a linear progression behind them. We will continue to get stronger by varying our strength movements!
We have a special Cinco De Mayo workout, a great Mother’s Day Workout, our Benchmark workout: Kelly, and of course, we are tackling Murph on Memorial Day! Speaking of Murph.. we have NEW Murph T-shirts available for purchase on our website: https://crossfitfernandina.com/shop Pre-order. before May 10th to guarantee your t-shirt size and to have them delivered just in time. We will run heats starting early that Monday morning, May 27th, more details to come💪.
Throughout this month, we will see the gymnastics focus shift from Strict HSPU to building confidence/ capacity in the Toes to Bar. This will take the form of skill sessions and higher volume TTB workouts, so prep those lats and midlines! We also will be prepping everyone for the Mid Year Mini Comp that will take place in the final 3 weeks of June!
