Workout – My upper body & legs are a bit sore from yesterday’s WOD, but I still feel pretty good. We have a Hero WOD, so it means it will be super difficult. I am not looking forward to it, but I’m pumped at the same time. Go figure.
WOD –”Wood” 5 Rounds (1 minute rest between rounds) Run 400m, 10 Burpee Box Jumps (20”), 10 Sumo Deadlift High Pull (42), 10 Thrusters (42) For Time. My Results: 31:45 minutes.
I wanted to do a higher weight for SDHP but we used the same weight for the Thrusters & my arms couldn’t handle any higher. We finished w/ 3x20 GHD Hip Extensions.

Crossfit Day 61
October 7, Friday
Workout – I didn’t really think I got too much of a workout yesterday since I was only practicing rope climbs & hand stands, but I really feel soreness on my back of my shoulders. I guess that’s from the rope climbs. My right shin is bruised up from the rope climbs too. After 2 climbs, I realized too late that my socks didn’t protect me enough from the burning of the rope, so it’s already bruised up. But I smartened up after & put on one of my knee pads to protect my shin from further bruising. I’ll have to remember that from now on. This week hasn’t been as bad as the previous 2 weeks, but I still feel pretty good about CF. I do get my low energy days but once I’m in there, I get really into it & come out feeling awesome. I have to remember to weigh in today because I’m going to attempt to follow the Nutrition Challenge that is starting on Monday. It’s going to be tough, but I hope I get through the next 7 weeks & see some awesome results. Wish me luck!
WOD – 7 Rounds 10 Sumo Deadlift High Pull (52), 10 Ring Dips (blue) For Time. My Results: 10:40 minutes.
We started w/ Push Press – 3-3-3-3-3 (Same weight across sets) – 42lb. My right shoulder is still the weak link, but at least I didn’t hit the bar against my lip again like last time. :-P The WOD went pretty good. I didn’t have issues w/ the Sumo Deadlift High Pulls, but I did scrap my knee up when I was setting the bar down to the ground twice. So there’s a slight bruise around the scrap now. We finished w/ a 300m Overhead Carry – (25). Boy do I hate them. My arms get so tired from walking w/ that weight overhead & I take many rests in between, but I still try my hardest to finish. It’s always satisfying when I finish.

Crossfit Day 44
September 13, Tuesday
Workout – I’m not sure how I’ll do on the 1500m run, but I’ll try my best. I hope everyone won’t be sprinting because I don’t want to fatigue so much that I am barely running at the end. We’ll see how it goes.
WOD – 1500m run for Time. My Results: 7:03 minutes. Rest 5 min. 7 Rounds 5 Sumo Deadlift High Pull (42), 7 HSPU box push ups, 9 Box Jumps (24″) for Time. My Results: 11:20 minutes.
There 7-8 of us at the class, w/ only 3 girls. DD did rowing instead of running because she has a problem breathing outdoors. So B & I were outside running w/ the boys. We were both behind the guys. B was slightly behind me the whole time. I was able to finish in a pretty decent time (in my opinion). Then we had a 5 minutes rest. Everyone started their WOD at different times depending on how fast/slow you finished your run. I upped my Sumo deadlift high pulls from 33lb to 42lb. I think I can do more next time. I modified the HSPU by using a box to do my push-ups. The Rx for box jumps was 24” for girls, so that was an increase for me. I only missed the box twice & luckily didn’t kill/injure myself. *whew* I was dripping w/ the sweat the entire WOD. And my clothes were soaked through w/ my sweat. Oh, it was disgusting. I finished everything at 23:23 minutes, but this included the 1500m run & the 5 minute rest, so the WOD took me 11:20 minutes, but it felt much, much longer than that. With the way I was sweating, you would have thought I was working out for a good hour. CF really is high intensity, isn’t it?!? It felt good to finish.

Crossfit Day 38
August 31, Wednesday
Workout – I am so dreading today because I’m afraid I’ll get lost or have major detours yet again. I can’t do 1.5 hour drives just to get to CF. I mean I am dedicated & all, but it’s getting ridiculous! I left work an hour early & had mapped a different route to CF. It was looking like I was going to be early, but then I hit more road blocks & flooded roads. I finally got to a flooded road but cars looked like they were okay crossing it, so I went through as well. I had to close the windows because the water was flying up on both sides. I had to go through 2 flooded roads in order to get to CF & I was early. Thank goodness. Too bad the water did something to my car & I now experience weird chugging noises coming from my car. I hope whatever water got into my car dried off so it’ll be okay again. *sigh* I can’t win can I?
WOD – “Irene” dedicated to Hurricane Irene – 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 Thrusters (32lb), Sumo Deadlift High Pulls (32lb), Burpees My Results: 17:52 minutes.
This is the 2nd time I’m doing thrusters & they get tough. I stuck w/ the same weight I used the 1st time. The Sumo Deadlift high pulls weren’t too difficult, but the burpees are just annoying. I really do hate them. By the time I got to the 8 repetitions set, I was exhausted & wanted to quit. I think I felt like I wanted to puke too, but I continued. I was dripping w/ sweat throughout the WOD. It was definitely a tough one. We were assigned 50 Toes to Bars to do after the WOD. I actually did 25 real Toes to Bars!!! I can’t believe it. I was so ecstatic w/ myself. I mean sure, I was slow w/ them & I can only do 1 at a time & need to rest in between but I was able to do real ones!!!!! I practiced Hand Stands too w/ the help of Desiree & Kristen, but I wasn’t able to hold it for long. My head keeps slamming against the wall & my arms want to bend. I still need much more practice w/ them.
