This weekend saw the Age Group Online Qualifiers for the Crossfit Open series. The top 10% athletes in each of the age categories were invited to take part in this stage of the competition. It’s my aim to qualify for this every year whilst I’m in this age group (55 – 59).

Today the gyms reopened. The opportunity to workout at a venue seeing people you normally see in they gym. Actual people.

I’ve been reading a few blogs, social media posts and direct emails lately about the subject of the effect of ageing on the body – with particular reference to those who exercise (who we will loosely call athletes).

All Crossfitters will have written about this, I’m sure. 21.1.

The Crossfit Open is a worldwide online competition to find the fittest in the world. Today I signed up. So for the next 5 weeks – starting on Friday – expect fitness talk!!

Motivation is easier when it’s a joint effort.

Kitchen workouts require creativity and a friend or 2 on zoom. Can’t wait to get back to the gym!!

Instead of an in-person assessment for my Strength and Conditioning Level 4 certificate I opted to submit a video of me coaching.
