"Boxers Fracture"


Happy Monday y'all. We are going to start this week off with a workout inspired by one of our top athletes Geoff Clements aka GC. As you may or may not know GC broke his right hand about a month ago and almost immediately got his ass back in the gym to train. We have basically been subbing movements for him daily so he can do the workout.....well not today sir!!

Tech: 
Single Arm Deadlift
WOD:
"Boxers Fracture"
Amrap in 20min:
10 Single Arm DB/KB Push Press
10 Single Arm DB/KB Squat Cleans 
20 Walking Lunges
Now since GC is right handed and that is the hand he broke, everyone can only work with their non dominant hand.

This should be a lesson to everyone. Injuries in the gym and in life are unavoidable and in fact if you never get them you probably are being too cautious in your training. If you are injured, no matter what that injury is, you can still come into the gym and get your work done. I am always happy to find a proper sub for any workout if an injury doesn't allow for you to do the workout as prescribed.
Reminder to everyone about the CrossFit Winter Challenge in Victoria on Dec 5th. 3 workouts on Saturday followed by a kick ass party. There is a great crew that have already committed but we want to take as many people as possible. Let me know if you have any questions about it. CrossFit Taranis website has all the info. www.crossfitvic.com
