CROSSFIT DESTINY 10TH B-DAY GAMES

On Friday the thirteenth and Saturday the fourteenth of June a great event took place in the CrossFit DESTINY Brno gym. CFD, headed by Filip Trojovsky and Michal Velkov, celebrated its tenth birthday, and on that occasion team competitions for local athletes were held CFD 10th B-Day Games.

A lot has changed in ten years. New coaches have come to Destiny, the class and private training offerings have expanded, a traditional gym has been added, a Destiny Fit Academy coaching school has been created, and a Hyrox license has been added to CrossFit. It is important not to rest on your laurels if you want to offer clients a constantly improving service. And this is certainly not the case with Filip, because thanks to his interest and work commitment, DEST!NY has become a great facility for many athletes, while maintaining a friendly and family atmosphere.

Now on to the race itself. It was a two day event and teams could enter in RX, sport and scaled categories. The divisions corresponded with the level of lessons, as the organising team wanted to ensure that everyone who was interested got the opportunity to race.

Two workouts awaited the teams on Friday to test their strength and skills, so it was the turn of the Olympic Axel powerlifting, jump rope and machine conditioning.

On Saturday morning, a real challenge awaited all athletes, because one of the workouts was the BCross run, organized in OC Tesco Brno. BCross run is a race conceptually similar to the now popular Hyrox, i.e. a station of functional exercises interspersed with running. Depending on the fitness level, the length of the workout is around half to one hour, so it was not an easy task. However, everyone bravely tackled it and the workout was a great addition to the whole race.
Interestingly, several of our teams took several first places in the race itself!!

After lunch everyone went back to the gym to complete three more workouts. These were again classic pure CrossFit, consisting of common and less common exercises, as well as various forms of cooperation - synchro movements, alternating after a strict segment or complementing each other.

The last workout was followed by an awards ceremony. The top RX category was dominated by Daniela Maleňáková and her partner Jakub Vrbata, the best in the Sport category were Aleksandr Heryč and Michal Hrouzek, and the best in the Scaled category were Veronika Zvárová and Martin Gerža. The winners received beautiful prizes from our partners, whom we would like to thank very much.

The whole race had a charity subtext. The organizers decided to support Dominik Orlovski on his way to the CrossFit Games. Dominik was born with cerebral palsy, but he hasn't given up and with incredible hard work and diligence he is chasing his dream. Spectators could purchase a t-shirt that was created for this very purpose or make a donation to Dominik and do a good deed. In total, 8150,- CZK were collected and CrossFit DESTINY rounded up the donated amount to 15000,- CZK.

After the successful race, the "exuberant" celebrations broke out as the tenth anniversary deserves!

And DEST!NY opens a new decade of its existence, and you can only guess and see how far this gym will take it.

Finally, we would like to once again extend our heartfelt thanks to all of our sponsors for the great prizes worth tens of thousands of crowns, to our volunteers for their tremendous dedication and willingness to help before, during and after the race, and last but not least to all of our competitors for their amazing performances. Without all of you, this race would not have been possible. Thank you!
