✨ MEMBER OF THE MONTH: PETE HITCHEN ✨💚

A huge congratulations to our July Member of the Month – Pete Hitchen! 🦍

Pete has been a member with us for a while now and has become a big part of CrossFit Wigan. He’s a familiar face in classes, always brings a great attitude, and is someone who’s supportive of everyone around him, whether you’ve been here for years or you’re just getting started.

Over the last few months, Pete has been ticking goals off the board one by one, linking together his gymnastics movements and hitting his 50kg sn**ch! 💪

Not only has Pete thrown himself into training and competitions (with another one coming up tomorrow at Arena Games!❤️‍🔥), but he’s also brought his family along for the ride. His wife, Tanisha, is absolutely smashing it in the gym, and it’s been great to see their kids getting involved in our CrossFit Kids classes too. 💚

Pete really embodies what CrossFit Wigan is all about, supporting others, getting stuck in, and helping create the community we’re so proud of.🫶🏻

Congratulations, Pete! a thoroughly deserved Member of the Month! We can’t wait to see what goals you tick off next. 🦍💚

FARMER STRONG 💪🏻🦍💚

Big thank you to Charlie Bowling for having us down at Farmer Strong® yesterday! 🫶🏻

We had a great day! It was brilliant getting the gym together outside of our usual environment and doing something a little different.

A workout, BBQ and a few beers… what more could you want? 🍔🍺💪🏻

WHAT A PLACE. 🙌🏻

Thanks again for having us, we will be back!💚🦍

NEW GYMNASTICS BLOCK 🦍💚

For the next 6 weeks, we’re focusing on Strict Ring Muscle Ups before progressing into Kipping Ring Muscle Ups for the following 6 weeks.

This block is all about building the foundations first—developing the strength, control and body awareness needed to make ring muscle ups more efficient and consistent.

Over the next 6 weeks we’ll be working on:
💪 Pulling strength
💪 Dipping strength
💪 Transition strength
💪 Isometric holds
💪 Negatives
💪 Core strength

Don’t have a ring muscle up yet? No problem.

You don’t need one to get involved. Every movement can be scaled, and the strength you’ll build will carry over into plenty of other gymnastics skills too.
