^ my friend said kailangan ko i-break in yung grips ko pero whenever i try to use them nafu-frustrate lang ako kasi nagsa-slide yung kamay ko.

@beachgirl, @kachich

If you don't mind, how much are your grips/wraps?

[kachich]

^ forgot how much they cost na.

Sis beachgirl baka you need to hang at least several minutes x sets for several sessions para ma break in yung grips. leather eh

[beachgirl]

^^ i remember i got my rogue gymnastic grips for about 1K. yung wraps free (hehe) but my friend sells them for P450 i think.

^ sis kachich siguro nga no? try ko nga kung sipagin!

^ beachgirl, watch ka ng Throwdown this weekend?

[beachgirl]

^ Hindi. Nakakatamad kasi yung init Ikaw?

[Frozen Toes]

^ Skipped na rin. Super init. Kawawa yung athletes, nakabilad sila. Just followed photo updates from friends and the Throwdown's official page.

[beachgirl]

^ There were fewer people nga daw this year compared to last year. And the venue last year was better daw.

[Frozen Toes]

^ Balita ko rin ang daming sandbaggers this year ha.

[beachgirl]

^ Really? Hmm.  Narinig ko lang ang dami nang malalakas who workout at non affiliates. Ang laki na talaga ng community!

[Frozen Toes]

CrossFitters! CrossFit Boracay is opening on 23May which means we can still WOD even when we're on vacay. Pretty excited about this. (No, I'm not from CF Halcyon.)

[ThorBeek]

Allow me to ask, how did you gals started with Crossfit (i.e. transitioned from another sport)?

OK lang ba ang CF for early-40s? 

[Frozen Toes]

^ Life before CrossFit was spent in the gym doing tons of cardio and some light weightlifting. I've always maintained that CF is for everyone regardless of fitness background. I have some boxmates who are over 40. Even in CF throwdowns, there is a separate division for people over 40 (Masters Division). So yea, just try it and find out if it's for you.
