Ok so I kind of had a drawback... but I am back and at it. I will have arranged child care and my school schedule around crossfit! :) im so pumped about that lol! Yesterday i went to 'the box' and it kicked my ass! But the upside was that I can do pull-ups with a blue band now instead of a green one! Woot woot! I am off to buy a jump rope so I can practice my double unders! We start a challenge on the 17th and Im ready! well once I get my jump rope :)

BEACH WOD (4-17-10)
The beach workout was a killer but fun. We had to have a partner and mine was my friend Lexie which was awesome. To say the least this workout went beast mode ON US and not the other way around! I was thankful for my decision of not eating breakfast haha. Im not going to go into detail of this bad boy but it was something I hope we do more often! Nothing like working out in the sand with the water to cool you down. =) Next time I think I will have to bring my little guy with me. He would definitely have enjoyed the sand and sun! =) I am so ready for what monday holds in store for us... another ass kicker I am sure! =)

Back At it
Im back at it... I haven't been blogging in the past week or two because school has been wicked to me! lol But I am still managing that 4.0 wahoo.
Yesterday we did filthy fifty which totally kicked my ass... no other way to say it. The workout was modified for me of course. I only had to do 25 for time and it was still a killer. I am so motivated though. Im ready for the day I can do 50 =) For the warm up we did 1000m row 10 wall squats 10 walking lunges, 10kbs, 5 burpees, 20 sec handstand. (3 rounds of each minus the row)
Now for the FILTHY WOD...
25 of each as quickly as possible:
box jumps
jumping pullups
KBS
Walking Lunges
KTE
Push Press 25 (which I think was too light...)
Back Ext
Wall Balls (16lbs)
Burpees (suck)
Double unders (I did 3 to one instead)
I did all this in 22:50. I had to take a couple breaks in between b/c I really wanted to throw up my lunch lol. Around Back Extension time I think it came up a little! Note to self: Do NOT eat lunch 45 min prior to a WOD. It will come back to bite you. =) I am so pumped for what's to come for me!

SICK!!
Wow... I feel like the biggest slacker in the world! I have been a little under the weather so I haven't gone to workout since last wed! Epic FAIL! I didn't realize how much better I felt when I was working out. I have a terrible cold but I took my blood pressure and it was 80/55 which means its most likely a little cold or on the verge of getting better. Oh how I hope it is better. I plan on going to workout tomorrow regardless cause I feel like I've gained 5 lbs since Easter lol! Anyway Ill be back to it tomorrow so Ill update soon!

Mondays...
So I went to crossfit today and worked on a little fundamentals followed by a wod! I worked on deadlifts. The deadlift and the sumo something deadlift haha. Anyway after I did a bunch of those and worked on my form. (which btw makes me feel goofy cause I mess it up a lot at first =/) Oh well. After all of that I did a wod and it was killer lol. I had 5 rounds of 5 sumo deadlift pulls (55lbs), 7 box jumps, 5 push ups, and 100m run. Ok so it doesn't sound bad until you do this consequetively as fast as you can after you are tired from just learning the crap lol. I would have been beat even if I wasn't doing stuff b4 it haha! But anyway, I think I did decent. I need more confidence cause I get all nervous when I first start like I am scared of doing it wrong or whatever. Well I did all that in 8:59!! It was so nice to sit down and guzzle that water haha! I could feel the 3 days I took of from physical activity! Well after all this my poor hands were hurting!! They are getting tough I guess haha! owee is all I can say!
Then I had a de-lish smoothie from smoothie king mmmmm! =) And I actually ate something healthy 2 nights in a row since the weekend!! GO ME! I had a great half of a panini with grilled chicken, red peppers and swiss cheese with a little balsamic vinegar and some potato soup. Ok I know the potato soup was tons of starch n carbs but I had small portion so... I guess that helps. And yes... I used my paper plates again! =) I swear no more paper plates after this pack is up. Though its only one thing I don't do. I buy all the green paper towels and I use the myers all natural cleaning products as well as some homemade stuff. I think Im doing my part... so stop hating on my paper plates people! =)
