From my recent post about reasons why you should compete in a Crossfit Competition, one of my top selling points is that you find out that you are capable of doing things that you never thought you were able to do before. For me, the adrenaline and the competition atmosphere is so overwhelming in the […]

There is always a bit of friendly competition that goes on within my Crossfit box. First and foremost, you are always competing with yourself. With each workout, you can notice progress from how you performed the time before or how you feel afterwards. If you repeat a WOD, you strive to go heavier, or faster, […]
Another week.. and another awesome lifting lady to share! This week’s spotlight is short and sweet, but that doesn’t mean that Natalie isn’t one strong mama! I found Natalie through the Sweat Pink network and one of the things that stood out most to me is her passion for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Team […]
It’s finally April! And sadly, winter has not officially left us here in Michigan. A couple of days lately we made it to the 50s, but it always seems to go back to frosty mornings. This week’s supposed to be a bit nicer, but of course with warmer temperatures has to come rain. Can’t have […]

I know I started to do a weekly recap of my workouts, but there are some things that I just want to brag talk more about, so figured I can do what I want and will dedicate whole posts to one workout if I wanted. š First off.. Cindy. In Crossfit, there are many workouts […]
And it’s another Sweaty Sunday workout recap! This week I beat myself up. Physically and mentally, just drained! Since I started doing the Crossfit Open Workouts (Check out 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, and 13.4), my desire and drive to become a better athlete has seriously increased ten fold. I don’t just want to go to Crossfit. […]
What I love most about finding my ladies to be in my lifting spotlight is when I see someone that lives and breathes fitness, and this week’s spotlight is no exception! I connected with Jenna through Sweat Pink, and this girl definitely gets her sweat on. She went from a high school athlete, to a […]
Some of the ladies I choose for my lifting spotlight have approached me, asking to be next. Other ladies, I have reached out to and they have graciously accepted the invitation to be featured on my blog. This week’s spotlight is a little different. I found Dana on the New Rules of Lifting Facebook forum […]

So remember on Monday when I posted about finally being back from my short hiatus from Crossfit due to my injury? On Tuesday, I couldĀ notĀ get out of bed. It was the most horrible, miserable feeling to have felt so optimistic and positive, and then to be right back to where IĀ started. I cried. I whined. […]
For those new readers to the blog, every week I spotlight a fellow lady lifter who, like me, loves lifting and encouraging other women to lift! I started following Jacki’s blog a few months back, and I am truly inspired by all that this woman does! Jacki is running the #nogirlypushups challenge with Alex and […]
