Good morning everyone!!!
Yesterday was epic for me because I finally paid my respects to the sport that has inspired me more than any other. I'm a big fan of the Crossfit Games and I have watched all the levels of competition from the last 3 years. I don't do Crossfit but those ladies competing are the real world examples of everything I want to achieve. Yesterday I did my first Crossfit workout I was watching the Open workout 16.5 and I decided to skip my usual training and do that instead. It was very intense and so much fun. Just as I expected, my heart rate got up to the extreme level and then it stayed consistent for the whole workout. I was dripping sweat but breathing well and in true Crossfit spirit I knew I wasn't going to stop until I complete the whole thing. It took me 24:30 minutes. I did have to scale the weight a bit since I never did thrusters or burpees before or work in such high rep schemes. My plan is to redo this workout in a few months and see how much better I get.
Today is active rest day so all I'm focusing on is covering the basics and getting back to my usual food intake.
Let's make this Saturday fabulous!!!!0 -

Talk about being fantastic!!!! 11 miles is incredible in my book!
As far as the challenge, feel free to join in my Crossfit madness the workout I did is posted online. I adjusted mine to use only 45lb on the thruster ( basically just the bar) and I only stepped over the barbell to do my burpees because I have downstairs neighbors

Just and update cause I was busy yesterday and didn't see all of this good news!!
@danelutza19 : awesome on the cross-fit. That's intense and sounds fun!
@CourtLloyd - good luck on the 1/2 training.
@2020pinktogo - you are doing great!!! Wow..the first place to loose for me is my ladies..so I am back to B...But the dress...ugh..Almost so close. Just a little on the waist....But it is just what I needed to tell me I am on the right path because nobody called me too skinny back then !
Can you believe the naysayers that proceed to continue to tell me..stop losing weight, you are too thin, and oh I love the last one...You need to carry more as you get older and then to tell me that I should carry as much extra as them in the event of serious illness cause they are gonna survive longer when they are clearly a size 3X and just finished a double knee replacement at age 55 ? And she tells me that during Church? Jeez. I have never criticized anyone's weight as it is a very personal topic and everyone is in a different place.
So I carry on in an effort to increase muscle mass and stay healthy. Skinny is not what I am after and skinny is not what I am today. I just need to continue my journey, eat healthy and exercise.
Hope you all continue to go for goals no matter what roadblocks people try to set up in your path.0
