We are super psyched at our awesome community! It was amazing to see so many of you at the NZ Fitness Expo on Saturday at the Industrial Athletic CF Invitational. Our athletes and the rapidly growing CrossFit community really felt the love! It was a good day for CFAK too: Horse took the win in a hotly contested Men's competition – the top 3 men were only separated by a few points! Great to finally see Horse on top of the podium! Kate came through with a solid performance and took 2nd place podium honours in her first big CrossFit event – we cannot wait to see what lies in store for her in the future! And Jacques did CFAK proud with some gutsy effort and heaps of heart – Jacques entered the comp with about 90 mins notice after an athlete pulled out, stepped in not knowing what was in store for him and stamped his mark. He even overcame a major goat mid competition and got his pistol squats finally!

A. Weightlifting

  • Power Snatch 1RM

15 minute time cap.

B. “FRAN”

Yes, push-ups two days in a row. Thanks for pointing that out Captain Obvious. There is a method to the madness. Trust us. We know what we’re doing here.

As Coach Glassman said “The magic is in the movement, the art is in the programming, the science is in the explanation, and the fun is in the community.”

Happy Birthday Tila!!
