News

Each month we will be shining a spotlight on a member who embodies what we are all about; someone who works hard and is a pleasure to coach and be in class with. Who else could we award the inaugural badge to than Dan Anderson? Dan has been a 6.15 (am & pm) regular since we very first opened our doors last August and he’s come on leaps and bounds in that time, hitting PB’s on all of his lifts, getting his first handstand push ups and completing every workout in the Open.

I asked him a few questions about his TIO experience to date:

How did you first get involved with TIO?
I read about TIO opening in Dom’s Rosslyn Park newsletter and realised the yellow tent and containers I’d seen wasn’t RPs new outdoor bar but a fantastic indoor-outdoor gym.

What’s you most memorable CrossFit moment so far?
Somehow, and never repeated since, bar muscle ups in this years Open. It was a very good test of how much punishment the rack could take.

What’s your favourite movement/workout?
You can’t beat deadlifts, and any 21-15-9 workout is always a winner.

and your worst?
High volume thrusters, anyone else remember the torture of 19.5?

What’s your number one CrossFit goal this year?
Link 20 Double Unders, might have to bring my skipping rope to the office to crack these.

What do you do when you’re not at the gym?
Hmmm…talk about CrossFit and check BTWB, poor Amy.

One thing people might not know about you…
I’m a secret allotment holder, surplus veg for TIO members this summer.

If you could give a new member one piece of advice, what would it be?
Record your workouts, seeing gains over time is a great motivator.

WOD

A) 3RM thruster

B) “Jackie”
1,000m row
50 thrusters (20kg)
30 pull ups

Scaling:
Thrusters – the weight is the same for men and women and should feel very light. Reduce weight if needed.
Pull ups – scale to jumping pull ups if needed

Top tip:
Don’t go too hard on the row; you should be able to pick up the bar and do a big set of thrusters straight away. Manage your rest on the thrusters and pull ups.

* 10 Bulgarian split squats after each round

WOD

20 minute AMRAP

200m run
10 HSPU
10 box jumps (30/24”)
10 burpees

Scaling:
HSPU: if you have HSPUs but not from the floor, you can use up to one abmat. Otherwise, do pike push ups from a bench. Volume can also be reduced, but no fewer than 5 reps
Box jumps: these are higher than normal. Reduce height if needed

Top tip:
Aim to move steadily throguhout this workout and pick an appropriate scale on the HSPU if needed (you don’t want to spend half the workout staring at the wall!). You should be able to do all reps unbroken in round one.

WOD

A) max complex: clean + hang clean + front squat

B) 4 rounds off 3:00
18/15 cal row
10 squat cleans @ 70% of part A

Scaling:
Row – cap at 1 minute

Top tip:
The weight in part B is relative to the weight you get to on the complex in part A and you should be able to move through the 10 reps without stopping. Go hard on the row, but not so hard you can’t pick the bar up straight away. Each round is scored for time.

WOD

“Nancy”
5 rounds for time:
400m run
15 overhead squats (42.5/30kg)

Scaling:
OHS – reduce the weight if needed. If mobility issues restrict you from doing OHS, front squat instead

Top tip:
Don’t go too hard on the run. This is a very leggy workout, but you also require stability and co-ordination in the OHS so you don’t want to be too gassed when you pick up the bar.
