Had my second cf competition yesterday!
Had my second CrossFit competition yesterday. We had to do max front squats first. I got 115lbs but wasn't very happy with it. My partner got 145!! Then we had to do three rounds of 400m run with a 25lb plate, 5 pull ups, 10 push ups, 15 air squats (4 times). My partner and I got 3rd place in our division (it was scaled…

Lets talk Oly lifting shoes...
I never thought I would need a pair. I mean, I do crossfit so its not like my workouts consist entirely of lifts. But I've noticed the last two weeks that while lifting my heels start hurting and go numb. I know part of the problem is I have REALLY flat/wide feet (read flinstone feet) but I'm wondering if weightlifting…

LIFTED MORE! Ugh, I think I'm too hard on myself some days. I really want to drive back to the box and try again. Need to turn the over achiever switch off. We did max DL today and I got 135#. Up from 115# from my last DL. I really wanted to get #155 but that bar wasn't budging. On a happier note I rx'd my wods yesterday…

March 15th will mark exactly 2 months I've been crossfitting. And March 30th will mark my first competition (charity)!! I am so freakin nervous. Not sure what I was thinking when I signed up. I'm going to be doing the Individual WOD. Thinking I will do ok on everything but the 75# hang cleans. Last time I did hang cleans I…

Are you sore after every WOD?
Are you sore after every WOD?? Because I'm not. I mean, I was the first week, and maybe half of the second week, but now that I'm on my third week I find that I'm not really sore at all. Is that normal? Do you think that maybe I'm not pushing myself hard enough?

Please tell me I wont always finish last!
Why do I feel like such a failure for finishing last in the WOD today?? Its ridiculous. I've only been CFing since this past Monday (went 5 times this week!). I dont know why I expect to be super woman so fast. I haven't worked out in over 4 years!! Either way my 26min WOD time is nagging at me today = / Someone remind me…

What should I expect? *fundamentals*
Doing my fundamentals class tomorrow for the first time. What should I expect? Is it like a light workout, full on workout or strictly informational? Curious if I should have my morning coffee before or after. Last time I had a coffee before a WOD I ended up throwing it up 2nd round in lol. Sooo I try not to do coffee…
