Adding crossfit workout once a week to our sessions

Sorry for getting behind on the blog guys, as you know we have been busy adding MMA techniques and new equipment/exercises to our programmes. Furthermore we have added a session of crossfit to the weekly regime so things are really coming along and I want to thank you for your support during this time of expansion. I would also like to thank Crossfit WA4 for agreeing to help mentor Home Improvement Fitness Instructors in Crossfit techniques and merging Saturday's session to create an all-round fitness experience!
