Name: Cristina
where you live: Texas
Time CF'ing: About 1 yr
Nutrition Plan: Well, I've tried many things. I've grown much stronger by doing CrossFit, but I can't seem to get the fat off. I carry most of my weight around my midsection and I know that's got to be a symptom of my fluctuating diet. My trainer always says, "if you want to lose weight, cut off an arm." They are adamant about not counting calories. I tried doing all protein and amino shakes for about a month and trimmed down some, but not enough to keep that up for any longer. Plus, without weighing myself I had no idea if it was really doing anything because I was just so bloated all the time. I tried Paleo, but I lost my zest for cooking when my apartment always smelled like meat...I just joined MFP today because I am just convinced that maybe I'm different than everyone else at the gym and I need to count some calories! So, at this point I'm just trying to focus on mostly protein and fiber intake however I can get it so I can continue to see improvements in my WODs but also in my waist line! I hope I see some results by counting everything because, as my past indicates, my sweet tooth will get the best of me if I don't see some results!0 -
Do y'all enter your WODs in your log and if so, is there an average calorie burn you enter and do you actually try to consume all of the extra calories it says you "earned"?0

Hi Cristina - Welcome. Firstly - that is crazy about your affiliate won't let you count calories. There are some boxes like that out here - only allowing a Paleo diet - most members left and found our box. Our box advocates 1 size does not fit all: highlights the good parts of eating Primal, but insists you find something that works for you.
By storing around your mid-section, sounds like you may be Insulin resistant. I'm cut my carbs down to about 12-15% of my daily allowance, I allow the dairy I enjoy eating but have pretty much cut out fruit because of the sugars.
I wear a HRM - so I enter my WOD as a new workout and enter the calories. I think some people use the "circuit training" option for a close estimate of what you are burning.
HTH!0 -
Tabata!
Knees-to-elbows
medicine ball cleans (14lb)
push-ups modified
kettlebell swings (1 pood)
Total: 24
I really like Tabata's. I think it is the short bursts of work and a small rest that works well for me.0 -
June 18th WOD:
300 double unders + 5 burpees every other minute until finished
Time: 20 minutes0 -
Last night's WOD
run 1 mile - I don't run, so I rowed 1500m instead
AMRAP 15
5 KB Sotts Press (each side) (I ended up using the 10lbs KB. I could have done more on the right side, but not the left, and I didn't want to be unbalanced)
10 split squats
15 American KB swings (I started with the 25 and switched to 20. I was just too out of breath.)
I did 5 rounds. Since I'm recovering from a head cold that has gone to my lungs, and I'm battling terrible allergies, I figure this isn't too bad.0 -

30 pullups (did jumping)

24 situps
15 rows
15 dips

I'm not familiar with travel WOD. I will have to look into it. WOD club is a site where you can keep track of your times and they post WODs and the people with the best time for each workout. It is like a social networking & tracking site for crossfitters.No Ma'am! Is it similar to the travel WOD ?0

I'm not a runner, either. I have terrible shin splints and running is just too painful. So is jumping rope and several other things we do. My trainers are all aware of my limitations, and when things hurt, I just let them know. They've usually come up with something else I can do in advance. (For my O-lifting warmup, she always has us jump rope, but she has me to low box jumps instead. For CrossFit, she usually has me to mountain climbers instead of jumping rope. The other day we had to run a mile and she had me instead row for 2K.)
But hey, you're doing it! That's the important part. Glad to hear you're loving it!0 -
Trainer had me row, and to make it fair to the runners, I did 500m and 45lbs on the OHS.
I finished in 22:26. (I finished before the avid runner, and the volunteer firefighter.)

HOLY MOLY! I have yet to do a true murph. I've done the mile run and then 50 pullups and 50 squats, but no mile after. That is one hard workout!0 -
