Member of the Month - Lucy Muir

Since joining us at Central Staffs Crossfit, Lucy has always proved to be a dedicated member of the gym and consistently attends her morning sessions. Not only is Lucy super dedicated, but is always positive when in the gym and is well receiving of the coaches queues and help, she will always listen and take things on board.

She has been noticed by coaches recently for gaining some new skills which she has been working hard on, such as Toes to Bar, Rope Climbs and Kipping Handstand Push Ups. We know she is still working hard in the background on other things such as double unders and her olympic weightlifting movements.

Lucy is never shy to push herself in areas that she knows are her weakness - for example, she will opt to pick the bike for WODs as this is where she struggles most and hates the bike (most people are team bike over skierg, but not our Lucy!).

Well done on all of your progress so far Lucy and we can’t wait to see where another 12 months gets you with your hard work and dedication!

💪Friday Night Lights at CSC! 💪

Our first Friday Night Lights was a huge success last weekend, thank you all for coming and leaving it all on the floor for the first WOD of this years’ open season!

A quick reminder, the slot that you book on Boxmate for Friday Night Lights will be the time that your heat starts, so come a little earlier to get yourselves properly warmed up and ready to go!
