Love to have some more CrossFit Friends!

I've been doing CrossFit since December and I absolutely love it. I'd love to have more friends on here that are also doing CrossFit workouts too!

I started my weight loss journey in September as morbidly obese doing circuit training type workouts with a trainer. In December I switched to CrossFit, and the inches are just melting off me. I'm not necessarily losing a ton of weight at this point (I've lost 36 lbs. to date) but I'm definitely gaining muscle, toning up, and getting stronger.

Anyway, I'm happy for all the support here, and if you'd like to be friends and not doing CrossFit that'd be great too! :-)

Actuality

I really want to do crossfit. But I am sooo itimidated by the workouts!

CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program that many police academies and military use. Its an intense workout that combines weightlifting and cardio.

Today's workout was 2 rounds of 21 Burpees, 21 Kettlebell snatches, 21 knees to elbows, 21 sit ups, and 21 push ups, and we do them for time, or as fast as we can.

Tomorrow's might be 2 minutes each of Squats with a 30 second rest, Push Press maximum reps with a 30 second rest, box jumps maximum reps with a 30 second rest. 2 Rounds. Short workout, but INTENSE!

Don't be! I do what I can do and I don't feel bad about it. I'm still doing knee push ups instead of regulation ones, I'm still doing range of motion instead of Knees to Elbows. I'm still doing jumping pull ups, instead of a regular one. I can barely jump up on a 10" box, let alone a 2 foot one, but that's ok! I'm still getting my maximum workout that my body needs, and no one is laughing at me.

I've been Crossfitting for about 3 years. Can't get enough.

EVERYTHING can be modified. Having said that, I'm still intimidated before every single workout. But boy do I feel great after!

I have been doing crossfit for about 3 weeks now and I am loving it. The workouts are intense but I feel so accomplished after finishing them.
