Tonight there is no 19.15 WOD and Olympic Lifting is on instead.  It will cost £3 per head and is ran by Colette Will and Ray Cavanagh of WLS.  This class will focus on the snatch and clean and jerk, it is growing in popularity with members and non-members alike due to their coaching skill and the value in developing speed and power from this lifting method.  If you have never been it is well worth a visit.

Over the last few weekends it has been incredibly busy at CFG.  We have hosted Rob Orlando and his strongman seminar, we have had the World’s Most Powerful Women battle it out and have had Kelly Starrett and Jami Tikkanen over teaching us about movement and mobility.  We had a number of our athletes represent Scotland in the Four Nations CrossFit Competition in Manchester.  Not to mention having Benedikt Magnússon visit the gym!

We hope to bring you more seminars and introduce you all to more fantastic coaches and world-class athletes in the near future.

CFG are pleased to announce that on Wednesday 30th October we will be having a Halloween WOD for all the members.  There will be no evening WODs on this day and the gym will open from 18.30-20.30.  Costumes are mandatory and food and drink will be provided.  We realise it is not the right date however we know some of you with families may have plans in place already for the 31st.  It was great fun last year and we hope it is as popular this year!
