Happy Halloween everyone. Thor 2 is out in cinemas today. So excited.

Today is a rest day/catchup day. You can also choose to do our skill for the day.

Skill - Ring Dips

It will be drills and some strength work to improve the overall movement that is your ring dip.

This is the kind of thing I was trying to get across yesterday in the Handstand skills and drills section to many of you. Read it, and read it ALL. It will take 5 minutes of your time and hopefully change many of your perspectives on 'How you can' instead of 'why you can't'. I want all of you to be healthy, mobile and strong individuals.

I will leave an opportunity on Saturday for those of you who haven't been able to get in much this week to cover any pb's. There will be no sunday classes as no one is around. And I will have either a partner or team workout up tomorrow for the day.

Lots happening this weekend. Congratulations Steve on your first ring dip. Especially to 'I believe I can fly' - R. Kelly.

Rest Day/Catch Up Day

Hoping more of you are thinking about registering for the Charity Competition day. It is going to be a really good day. We already have about 6 or 7 teams from the gyms, primarily the ladies though. Where my bros at???

Also if you want to help volunteer on the day that would be fantastic.
