[/caption] [caption id="attachment_325" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Focus Fitness, MTS Iceplex, 3969 Portage Avenue, near Assiniboia Downs."][/caption] Winnipeg-Functional Fitness 204 is proud to be one of the satellite hosts for Functional Fitness Subzero’s Intergalactic Throwdown, which goes down on Sat., Feb. 5. If you watched the FrostFit Games and want to get into Functional Fitness competition, or if you just want to do a few workouts and support a great cause, this is the event for you. Functional Fitness 204 will judge and/or film your workouts, and we’ll submit the results to Functional Fitness Subzero so you can see where you compare with athletes taking part in the competition all over Canada, from Vancouver to Halifax. In the Intergalactic division, you’ll be competing against some of the top Functional Fitness athletes in Canada, including D.J. Wickham (see photo), Dan Rogers, Lauren Pryor and many more. You’ll be doing serious Functional Fitness workouts, and they’ll be a true test of your all-around fitness. If you’re working toward the Functional Fitness Games Sectionals or Regionals, this is the division for you, and it will be a top-level Functional Fitness extravaganza. There will be no snatches or muscle-ups, but every other Functional Fitness movement is on the table. Brace yourselves! Because Functional Fitness is about fitness for everyone, we’ll also be offering scaled versions of these workouts for anyone who wants to take part but isn’t quite ready for the Functional Fitness Games. We will scale for athletes of any ability, and you can inform us of any needs once the events are announced.

Workouts

The workouts will be released Feb. 2 at 7 p.m. by Functional Fitness Subzero, and we’ll re-post them here. The exact schedule of events will be released at that time as well, but please plan to be available from about 7:30 a.m. to about 6 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 5.

Cost

Registration is $10 to Focus Fitness for letting us use their space, and any donation you wish to make will be forwarded to Local Dog Rescue and New Hope Dog Rescue in Thunder Bay, Ont. Receipts will be issued on site, and tax receipts are available from the charities on request. Please advise us during your on-site check-in. Cash only, please.

We will accommodate as many athletes as we can, but space will be limited, and spots will go on a first-come, first-served basis. Please e-mail Mike@Functional Fitness204.com to register. If you have already pre-registered through your affiliate, there is no need to resend your e-mail.
