A new box and some OPT!

There has been a buzz about it for a while, and a few initiated individuals have been in the loop about it- still noone has been really sure, or known 100%.... So let me be the one to bust the bubble, or at least let a little air out of it!

We will be opening a box virtually on Odenplan in Stockholm!

Within a very near future the doors will open to Stockholms first pure bred CrossFit box. The final details are being put in place and I promise to return as soon as I know more- But for now let us just conclude that we will be able to work out at our box very soon! We are talking weeks!

The second part of todays entry does'nt really feel as important after the above, but it still needs to be reported! After getting back from the cert in Basel, it was time to get back to working out! Everyone else had had a monstreous weekend, with near death experiences perscribed by OPT! So I was happy to see that OPT had decided to take it resonably easy, for the workout that turned out the be my first post cert experience!


A. Back Squat @ 30X0; 1,1,1,1; rest 240 sec
B. Tabata Push Ups - low score - 4 sets only
C. AMRAP Double Unders in 2 min
D. GHD Sit Ups - 20 x 2

post loads and notes to comments
back squat is not for 1RM, just challenging but confident 1's
make push ups reps extra perfect

A- 140kg. performed in sneakers but still felt solid. Could I be getting stronger?
B- 13- I was aiming for 20, but had to fight to get 13 on the last set!
C- 20.. Ugly as hell! I will never be teh double under master, but this needs to get better:-)
D- check! Jocke from CrossFit Uppsala helped me MacGyver a great GHD contraption!

It was not the hardest WoD in the world but it felt good to get back in this fashion, and I know that is is only a matter of time before the MAN begins to bully my poor body again:-)

Until next time

Much love
