Advanced/Intermediate are for those athletes who are close to getting a Muscle-Up. If you are close to a MU and want progressions ask one of the coaches. Sundays are also good days to come in to practice them. A prerequisite is having at least 5-7 strict pull-ups & Ring Dips. The 2015 CF Games Open is rapidly approaching and you bet MU will be one of the required movements!

We will be having a meeting this Saturday at 11:15am (right after the 10am class). The meeting will last 30-45 minutes. If you cannot make the meeting, you will have to get the details from one of the coaches. We had amazing results last year and am looking forward to everyone doing it again this year. The challenge costs $10 – all of this money will go to prizes for the winners. You may also participate for free, but you won’t be eligible for prizes. It will go from Jan 5 – Feb 5. No measurements be taken this year unless you want to do them on your own. The most important ones are waist/hip. There will be a baseline WOD that we will re-test at the end of the challenge. You will be able to see if eating healthy affects your performance in addition to improving your physique.
