Suffer in Sydney 2 - 1st of October

Ok Crossfit folks, the second installment of "Suffer in Sydney" is going to be bigger and better organised than the last! (assuming everyone is willing to destroy their long weekend)

The plan is to meet at my place, 14/102 Doncaster Ave Kensington at 0830 SHARP Saturday the 1st of October. From there we will grab our gear and head to the local park for the workout followed by breakfast and coffee back at the apartment.

The workout is on rain hail or shine, cost is $10 to cover food and friends, family and pets are welcome.

This weeks theme is going to be odd object lifting so we'll be doing some tyre drags, sandbag work, partner carries etc etc.

Please email me to confirm your attendance. fitness@octogen.com.au

Big turnout for 1st session!

Apologies for the delay in posting this but things have been hectic here with setting up my new website www.octogen.com.au and running around doing photo shoots and interviews for the Sunday Telegraph (article on kettlebells coming out on the 9th of October.

Anyway back to the important stuff.

We had an excellent turnout of 10 people for the first Sydney Crossfit workout, turnout was so high in fact that we had to move the workout to a local park to avoid annoying the neighbours!

After a quick warm up and intro we got stuck into fight gone bad in two lots of five people. Everyone worked hard and I think a few of our first time crossfitters were a little suprised by the intensity!

After the workout we returned to my place to eat bacon and egg rolls and watch the crossfit "try this at home DVD"

I've posted a couple of pictures and the video should be up soon.

The next workout will be held on the 1st of October and this time we'll aim for an 8:30 start with the workout starting at 8:45 SHARP followed by breakfast (i know a lot of guys missed out cause the had to rush off)

As always feel free to bring your relatives, friends and enemies!

Suffer in Sydney update

Well it looks like everything is on track for the first Sydney Crossfit workout!

We are moving in to the new apartment on Saturday and i've already measured up the garage and moved a few bits of gear in.

The address for the new place is Unit 14/102 Doncaster Ave Kensington. Its just off Anzac Parade near Centennial Park.

Just a quick reminder that if you are going to be there i need to know for sure at least a few days before hand so that i can organise food and plan the workout.

So far it looks like we'll be having at least 8-10 people show up which is great news!

We are mostly sorted for exercise equipment but if anyone could bring a video camera to capture the fun that would be awesome.
