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. 😉 First off.. Cindy. In Crossfit, there are many workouts […]

After my pity party the other day, I wanted to say that I have decided that I do need to take a step back and focus on me, and what I’m doing in the box, and pay less attention to everyone else. I’ve had two great workouts in a row (Saturday and Monday) that despite […]

It has been over a week since I blogged and it has been honestly quite pleasant. I have checked up on Twitter and Facebook just to see the random musings over the past week, but between last-minute shopping, family functions, working out, eating poorly, and other priorities getting in the way, it felt nice to […]

So after my horrible mini-meltdown after an amazing vacation full of sleeping and eating, and more eating and eating.. I think my boyfriend had some pity on me and decided to give me an advance on my pull-up challenge and buy me a present anyway without me having to torture myself some more 🙂 I […]
So I wanted to create this post to sum up my vacation as a “How to Eat Healthy/Stay Fit While on Vacation,” but I didn’t make it past two days myself, so thought it would be a bit hypocritical to tell others how to live their lives while I have a big glass of wine […]
Crossfit.com publishes its Workout of the Day the night before, so you have plenty of time to mentally prepare for what is in store for the following day. We checked the workout last night and holy heck. As prescribed: For time: Run 1600 meters 150 Double-unders 50 Burpees Run 800 meters 100 Double-unders 35 Burpees […]
Despite Sundays being a typical rest-day for me (and it being about 90 degrees outside at 11:00), I decided that after a day of indulging on the lake yesterday (including a plate or two of angel food cake topped with Cool-Whip..), a good old-fashioned Crossfit workout was acceptable, especially since it was only 20 minutes […]
Stage 3 was the same length as stage 2: 8 total workouts, 4 “A” and 4 “B”. There were more new exercises introduced here which was pretty exciting since I was getting tired of step-ups and lunges! However, it brought some new horrors, including a bodyweight maxtrix, and increased time for planks (up to 90 […]
Stage two of NROLFW definitely kicked my butt in a way that the first stage didn’t. I did really like that the exercises contained 10 reps of each exercise compared to the grueling 15 reps that some of Stage 1 included! Unfortunately, step-ups made a comeback and my less-than-favorite lunges reappeared with even more difficulty. […]
