Gymnastics program – decemeber

Posted 24th November 2023 by Anthony Masters

Hello gang,

The December program begins next week, here is a breakdown on what will be happening.

CrossFit Gymnastics (Tues & Thurs PM class); Warm ups will be focused around making the whole shoulder blade move better for bar work such as toes to bar, pull ups and kipping. 15-20 mins will be spent working on kipping bar or ring muscle ups drills. During this time you can add another movement of choice to practice. The last 20-30mins will involve a WOD. This is where you will have the opportunity to put to practice those typical CrossFit gymnastic moves in a full on conditioning manner. There are 4 WODs which will also reappear for the Jan programming, so there will be a 2nd opportunity to try again, maybe just with a bit more Xmas weight to move around.

Gymnastics (Thurs AM class); Mobility will be on improving shoulder extension specifically for skin the cat and the muscle up. You will then have 15 mins to continue working on the ring muscle up and/or another movement of choice. The last 20-30mins will involve a WOD and it will follow exactly the same structure as the CrossFit gymnastics PM classes. See below for programming.
