So… I’m so impressed by this girl!! Her name is Mary Taylor Frye, and over the course of 2 years, with Crossfit and a Zone/Paleo type diet, she went from 213 lbs to 132 lbs. Talk about total inspiration!! She said that in the first 6-8 months, she lost about 60 lbs, and then the…
I allowed Monday to be my rest day this week.. I need to designate one day a week where I don’t go, and just give my body a break. That was Monday. 🙂 On Tuesday, we worked on shoulder presses. My 1RM is 100, but I didn’t PR this time. I tried for 105lbs, and…
Not really a crossfit day, since I only came to the gym to do one thing, and that was 50 GHD SIT UPS. Yes… 50… Have I ever done them before? Yes… like, 3 sets of 10, with DU practice in between. Was I sore a couple days after my 3 sets of 10? YES,…
Saturday Workout!! This was an easy peasy one. Nice and low key. I liked it. We worked on our back squats for a good half hour or so, and then the workout was a Tabata Row for calories. I ended up rowing ’47 calories’ worth’. I didn’t PR the back squat, but I wasn’t trying…
Rope Climbs!! I now fear these yet am excited by them when they are a part of the WOD. I know I can do them now, but they are hard for me to do multiple times. 🙁 I really need to get some gloves.. and thicker skin.. hah The rope burn on the outside of…
Power Cleans! Hang Power Cleans! I prefer hang power cleans, cause I can bounce the bar off my giant, rock hard quads and power it up to my shoulders. YEAH. I didn’t try to PR or anything yesterday cause of the you know what.. (shoulder..) so I just did 85lbs over and over. WOD was…
So… trying to work through my shoulder pain isn’t the best method.. I’m learning. Cause on Wednesday it was really bugging me. I insisted to myself that I would STAY HOME today and not work out. It’s OKAY to take a break, asshole! Yeah.. well, I ended up working out at home instead. I didn’t…
So I wasn’t going to go in on Tuesday because my left shoulder was really bugging me after Fran (and some excessive stretching that I did afterwards that aggravated it), and then I saw this stupid thing that I made last month and was like, screw it.. I have to go.. Pissed me off.. damn…
Today was FRAN! I haven’t done Fran since May, and the last time I did, I was using a box for jumping pull ups. With that being said, my last Fran time was 7:36, with the Rx weight of 65lbs. This time, I did Fran in 9:25, which sounds shitty compared to the last time,…
The days are rolling into one another. I can’t believe the 18th is almost over, and that 12 hours ago, I did my workout for the day. Seems like this morning was a lifetime ago. Not sure what brought this mood on? Been thinking.. I have this amazing friend who’s literally on the other side…
