I am 5'4" about 128 pounds, average-sized and not super muscular. Just started doing the Crossfit WOD's to try and lose the rest of the fat, lean up a bit, and start showing some muscle. Any female Crossfitters here willing to share success stories, tips, or hopefully some before and after/current photos for inspiration? Thanks and add me if you'd like!

    I just started doing in this month and so far its been great. I go three days a week and two days a week I go to my regular gym to work out there.
  • Cool! I like it too so far...may sound odd but mostly because of the horrible pain I'm in with my muscles, particularly legs lol. It's just, I'm an avid cardio gal and I feel like before Crossfit, I forgot what it felt like to actually have some serious muscle growth. So although I don't like actually feeling stiff and painful after my first few workouts, I know that means it's working and that the pain will stop once I'm used to it :)
  • I am on my 6th week of Crossfit- and I totally love it! At the beginning, I felt like I was gaining a massive amount of weight- during week 2-3, but it seems to have been stabilizing lately.. (Don't feel as bloated) I love the mix- and how everyday is different, and I go first thing in the morning before work- (5x's a week) and I have more energy during the day!
    But i'm not sure i'm seeing the weight loss/ toning I wanted.. :/ But I've been told it takes about 3 months to see real results- Sooo we shall see! So far i think I've seen some slight definition in my arms? So I'm excited to keep going!!
