  • Overhead Squats and Double Unders

    My hands are ripped up from yesterday’s Pull Up clinic – apparently that is a sign of a CrossFit athlete. Personally, I could do without it if I am being honest.  Let’s find another sign of being an athlete – shall we? But I was happy there were no pull ups on the board this…
