down 3lbs!

I haven't been able to get to Crossfit since last Thursday but thankfully, I did go last night.

Killer workout but I forgot to take a picture of the whiteboard so I could post. 

I'll do that tonight.

I did run on Sunday and actually ran, on my lunch hour, yesterday:

4.466 miles on Sunday

3.202 miles on Monday

I am also considering running today at lunch and I'll be heading to CF at 6:30 tonight. 

I've decided to do the Advocare 24 Day Challenge starting on March 4th.

I'll be sure to post my progress and before and after pictures.

Yep, you heard that right.

Before and afters, in a bikini, for all the world to see. I'm so excited! /sarcasm

Oh, and I'm down 3lbs since cutting out alcohol for Lent. I haven't had a drop since Saturday, February 9th and I feel great!

The pool opens in about 2 1/2 months and I intend to be bikini ready. My milkshake will bring all the boys to the yard.

So, I fought that headache all week. Add to that, I was crazy busy all week between work, getting ready for Bunco, at my house, on Friday, and dealing with the girls activities.

I did CrossFit all week, though. Let me update you. :)

So, the headache came back every night but Wednesday. I didn't go on Friday and am taking today off as well. I may either run tomorrow or try to go to open gym if possible.

It's been a rough week for me between work, the headaches and the ex husband. Just trying to keep moving forward right now. Thank God for CrossFit. It really helps me unwind at the end of the day.

I've been battling this headache for two days now and I thought it had gone away. 

Went to CrossFit tonight and about 3 minutes into the workout, it came back.

Ugh

every.damn.day.

Saturday morning - parter wod

100 pull ups - (plank)

100 kb cleans - (mountain climbers)

100 kb push press - (6 inches)

100 sdhp - (box jumps)

100 kb goblet squat - (wall sit)

Our time was somewhere around 45 minutes, I believe

ETA: I feel like I should explain the above WOD a bit. Since it was a partner WOD, I didn't have to do 100 of any of those...we just had to split it up. Then, while one of us was doing our portion of the 100, the other partner had to be doing what was in parenthesis without taking a break. My partner and I split everything up evenly and typically did 25 reps and switched until we completed the 100.

I woke up this morning with a headache, drank a couple of cups of coffee and headed to the box for open gym. I wanted to make up Friday's workout which I missed.

My headache came back after the workout. Bummer. Now, I'm back in my pj's, chilling out on the couch until the girly's come home.

OMG! 75 burpees? Eff me! I seriously thought I was going to die or throw up. 

Oh and I decided what I'm giving up for Lent.

Post WOD

6 rounds

10 sec off

20 sec broad jumps

Weird thing happened tonight. My back started locking up during the second round of jump ropes and then, during the last round of running, I had shooting pain up my right side into my boob. I had to walk about 1/2 a lap.

just one of those days...

3 Rounds for time - 14:34 (totally sucked tonight on the time)

20x mountain climbers

Um, can you say painful? Ring push ups? WTF?! Cruz (my CF instructor) had to hold the rings for me as I was not stable. Tonight just sucked and I was the only one in the class so there wasn't as much motivation.  Enough whining. I did it. I made it. 

Post WOD

3 rounds (now I'm wondering if it was supposed to be 4 but I only did 3...yes, my brain is fried)

15x kbs

20x ring dips (I had to switch to dips on the box because I suck)

Don't get me wrong, I still feel like I had a great workout.

I'm just being hard on myself.

Cindy, Cindy, Cindy!

Benchmark WOD tonight

20 min AMRAP

5x pull ups (green band and purple band)

10x push ups

I completed 18 rounds. I think I could have done better but I'm definitely proud of the pull ups. I started with the blue band and look where I am, now!

Post WOD - 4 rounds

500 meter row

1 min ab mats

I am exhausted today after an insane day of work but this workout definitely help clear my head!

It's the freakin' weekend!

Our WOD today just about killed me. I don't typically lay out, on the ground, like half the class does after a WOD but, tonight? OMGosh. I was done. I know what my problem was. I didn't eat enough throughout the day. I got so busy with work in the afternoon and honestly totally forgot about my afternoon snack.

For time: 9 rounds
7x squat clean (I started with the guy's bar but ended up with the women's bar)
8x burpee box jumps (I did step ups on the 18" as I'm still terrified to jump)

I finished in 17:45.

Post WOD
EMOM for 10min (5 rounds of each)
15x kettlebell swings (the lowest weight)
20x tricep dips on the box

I am so sore. I really want to go tomorrow morning but I think I'm going to miss it so I'm going to try to get a 5 mile run in. 

Oh and I'm tired. So tired. Between work and crossfit, I am just beat but it's a good tired.
