Rest is Fitness Podcast: Summer Events, New Merch & Gym Favourites at CrossFit Shropshire Graham and Alex welcome listeners to the Restless Fitness Podcast, noting the last episode brought new members and record views, and they discuss making more episodes now that their setup is built (with thanks to Lenny for a loaned microphone).
They outline CrossFit Shropshire’s summer community focus, highlighting the dragon boat race on the 18th (Saturday) with a barbecue, supporters, and a request for donations/sponsorship via a link, plus more socials and a September event tied to Graham’s CrossFit anniversary and birthday.
They preview new T-shirts/merchandise with Kaz helping and a possible link. The conversation shifts to favourite and least favourite exercises (squats, deadlifts, burpee broad jumps, sled push, pull-ups, inchworms), mentions Alex’s massage work, naming workouts after members who emigrate (including Adeola moving to Canada), and compares gym culture and cleanliness in Japan and Hong Kong, before closing with growth goals and an Australia sponsorship email.
