On the pullups, I switched to the blue bands for the last 10. As stated before I want to be away from the green bands by the end of the month. Practice makes perfect!

Today's WOD was a tough one. They combined Fran with Angie. I am not very strong at pushups. After 15 I went to my knees and finished the rest. I was doing 10 at a time and then the last 20 I was doing 5 at a time. My shoulders were shot. I am surprised that I did 100 situps with nothing on my feet. And on the squats, I just pushed them out to get them over with. I had the coaches there cheering me on for my last 20 so I can finish the WOD in under 20 minutes. I did and ended up doing it at 19:27.
I really need to work on my pushups!

Next WOD Monday Morning.

Unscheduled Rest Day


I had to take today off from Crossfit due to nagging lower back pain. The WOD for today is Grace which is 30 clean and jerks at #135. I know I wouldn't have done that weight but I didn't want to take any chances. So I will take today and tomorrow off and then jump back in on Saturday.

Let the Good Eating Begin!!!


So I have decided to start slow with my diet plan. I will cut out all bread and pasta. I think I can handle that this week. That actually is a lot to cut but I need to start somewhere. So bread does not include cereal, at least for this week. Pasta is big at my house so when ever we have pasta I will have salad and what ever else is in the fridge. I need to get some whey protein for my morning shakes. Still looking into what brand I need to go with. I have also started taking my daily vitamins which include fish oil and glucosamine/chondroitin. Those along with my daily multi vit. should be good.

I have never been able to stick with any type of diet plan. I hope this time will be different. I signed up for the unlimited classes at CrossFit so I will need to keep my eating healthy if I am going to perform well.

LETS GO!

Jan 7 Morning WOD

Death By Burpees
Perform 1 burpee the first minute
1:00 - 2 burpees the second minute/round
1:00 - 3 burpees in the 3rd minute /round
1:00 - 4, 5, 6/rounds...etc untill you can not complete the # of burpee required in the round under a minute
Then pick one of the following:
A - Run One Mine For time
B - 100 Double Unders for time
C - 2 Mile Row for time

Warm up:
2 rounds of Cindy
5 Pullups
10 pushups
15 squats
WOD
9 rounds of burpees = 45 total (plus either 9 or 10)

I made it to the 10th round but lost count on my burpees so I did not know if I did 9 or 10. I stuck with just 9 rounds. Probably the most I have done.

For the 2nd round I choose to run. I probably shouldn't have but I am tired of rowing and forget doing 100 DU.

1 mile run time: 12:35
Not a killer run time but for me I will take it. I spent most of the run time trying to find a comfortable run form that has little impact on my knees. So I am going to put 12:35 down for my new PR.

After the WOD I chatted with Lisa about Paleo. I think I am going to start eating a Paleo diet come Monday. I really need to take control of my eating and with the support of everyone at home and Crossfit I should be successful.

Next WOD hopefully can be Monday night.
