max height box jump

Mon 120220 - CrossFit Harrogate WOD

Please check out the 'Blog, news and events' section for the latest news and updates.

For those of you who did the session with James Jowsey, it sounds like you all enjoyed it and got a lot out of it. The real changes now come as you do the movements more and more; this is DEFINITELY a case of the more you put in the more you get out. Your movements should really be the priority in your training now, make time for them, even if you have to shorten a WOD, trust me, you'll see more improvements in the long term.
