We are all super impressed with our very own Briar Burtenshaw and Patrick Sefo-Cloughley for medalling at the Secondary Schools Champs over the weekend. They also came away with some big PRs. Otago Weightlifting is building some strong kids down there and with all the other juniors coming through there will be plenty to follow in the future. Huge congrats again to Briar, Patrick and the rest of the Otago Team.

We have been helping High Schools for years now. It is great getting out in the community and introducing our younger population to the benefits of healthy eating and regular exercise. This Wednesday Bayfield HS will join in on the 7am class. It will be an awesome opportunity for them to see what we do first hand and how we introduce anyone new to CrossFit. It will be busy but super fun.

It has been awesome to see so many new people trying out Southern Peak CrossFit. Its fantastic to be part of a community who are so keen on spreading the word of functional fitness that they drag all their friends in to be part of it too. Keep doing what you are doing.

Watching the excitement when a new member truly sees what CrossFit is and what it can do for your health and fitness is what it is all about. We take it serious when a member trusts us enough to help out their friends and family too. This shows how much good we are doing. We are thankful for the confidence you are showing in us and excited to keep delivering the best possible training for you all.

The time is upon us again. You get to show off your fitness in front of the community, your friends and family. It should go without saying, but we will say it anyway. This is an inclusive competition for all of our members to have a fun and exciting experience with CrossFit as a sport.

Date: Saturday 17/8

Time: 9am Welcome & Briefing.

Location: Southern Peak CrossFit, 36 Ward Street

Divisions: RX, Scaled, Masters RX (40+) & Masters Scaled (40+)

There will be about 3 Workouts on the day;)

As a guideline for the levels:

If you RX more workouts than not on a weekly basis you are RX in this comp and don’t worry about the weights, they wont be ridiculously heavy. Also there will be Bar Muscle Ups in the comp but it will be at the end of a tough AMRAP and there will be a tie breaker on set workout so you will get plenty of fitness in despite struggling with your muscle ups. So don’t let that stop you from signing up.

If you Scale more workouts than not on a weekly basis you will be Scaled in this comp. All Gymnastics will be progressions of RX movements which means no Pull ups or Toes to Bar, But you will be using the pull up rig.

Lets get a big turnout for this competition. Bring your friends down to have a look to see what we really do on a daily basis. I am sure they will get super motivated watching you killing it on the competition floor and watching everyone cheer for each other.

If you are unsure what division you should join let us know today and we will help you make the decision.

Note: Everyone in Comp Class, who are available, will be expected to sign up in either division depending on their level.

We are really looking forward to this one. Sometimes all you need is a few people screaming at you and cheering you on to get that extra rep.
