Its WOD at Cross Fit Hub today. Really loved 'Grace' alot. There is something about clean & jerks (I did a push press instead of a push jerk after the clean) which I really enjoy. And dumping the weights makes it feel very empowering. Add those to the great loud music - lifting felt really nice today! For WOD 1 - I came in at 5min 44sec. Nice! It's back to run & …

We see and hear this all the time - 'Do high reps, and low weights, so that the body looks more toned'. Hence many ladies fall into this and end up picking only the lightest 1kg weight and go on and on at it, like over 50 times.Notably also, these very same ladies, still look the same after a few months. Have they got more toned? No. But ill-knowledge like this can make them …

Did a workout at home - another reason why I love Cross Fit's methodology is that its not a long draggy affair, but with blistering results. A workout usually takes less than 20 minutes. And it conditions 2 (out of the 3) metabolic pathways (see here) which is neglected in our 'typical' Singaporean sport - endurace running, cycling or swimming.WOD:21-15-9 for time:Barbell …
