Massive Joes Supplementation for CrossFit Seminar Feb 15th

CrossFit Adelaide in conjunction with Massivejoes.com is please to announce our first Supplementation for CrossFit Seminar on Feb 15th @ 6:30pm.  Dietary supplementation is an area that has a lot of confusion for people, what should you be taking pre-workout, during a workout, post workout, for muscle gain, for weight loss, to generally train more like animal?  So we’ve been working with Massive Joes Nutrition to look at which products specifically work best within a CrossFit environment to get the best results, if you’ve ever walked into a supplement store you know it can be a confusing if not daunting experience – so the aim of this seminar is to deliver some straight forward information about what works, what doesnt to get the most out of your training.  Correct supplementation will take your results to the next level while incorrect use of supplements will do nothing for your results (and result in some very expensive pee), this seminar aims to take some of that guesswork out of the equation

This will also give you the opportunity to ask all the questions you wanted to ask about proteins, creatine etc (but were too afraid to ask).

The seminar is completely free and will run for approx 1hr (provided the Q & A doesnt get out of control), I do ask that you register your interest in attending either via the comments section for this post or via the whiteboard at the gym so we can get a gauge of numbers and cater accordingly.

post interest in attending and anything particular you would like included in the seminar to comments

CF East Adelaide – Partner Games Day Feb 12th

As a bit of a launch into the CrossFit Games Open and for everyone to get a chance to check out the new space @ CrossFit East Adelaide we will be running a Partner Games Day / Open Dayon Sunday Feb 12th.  The comp is open to male/male, female/male or female/female pairs, there will be open and intermediate divisions  but no separation of types of pairs (ie male/male pairs will compete against mixed etc) – weights will be scaled for female competitors to make it fair.

There will be 3 workouts and we’re looking at running from 9am – 1pm with a bit of BBQ action, its going to be a bit more of a low key affair than the Fit Wars events, its a good chance to chuck your hat in the ring before the Games and compete with a friend (and blame them if you get smoked :- ) ) Its going to be very strictly limited numbers for entry so if your keen put your name up on the board at the gym (if you need a partner let me know and i’ll find someone). Its only $10 p. person and should be a fun day out.
