This was to make the ladies laugh




Today D picked out my WOD because I needed some good lifting and she picked the perfect one for me:

10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1

OF

Dead lifts 155lbs
Bench Press 75lbs ( could have gone up to 85lbs)
Cleans 65lbs (could have done 75lbs would have been perfect)

The hardest part was from the Dead lifts but I gotta say it was hard today to feel strong from all the laughing, usually when D and Jess are around were like a bunch of meat heads all serious about lifting, today well we got our WOD in but i was glad when it was over cause it was hard from all the laughing we were doing, the worst part about it is that we were laughing at ourselves.

Ill have to post pics later.
I do feel good lately about my strenght but I'm having a harder time accepting that in this me wanting to put muscle on phase, I'm not going to be shrinking as fast as i want too, i guess I'm just trying to suck it up, it takes time to put on muscle and the right nutrition.

CFT


Today was good, I wasn't expecting to get any PR's just cause i hate lifting in the mornings because I'm not my strongest in the morning and i like to warm up allot before lifting so much cause I'm always paranoid of getting injured.
I got 180lbs on my BS ( thanks to the half loaf of chocolate banana bread i made and ate, glad the hubby ate the rest, guess i needed a Little carb action) and last PR was 165lbs hardly got it up so I am definitely getting stronger and adding muscle but I'm not loosing that's extra body fat i want, but I'm am being patient because my i am trying to add more muscle and gain strenght now as much as id like to be 20lbs lighter, that can wait.

Got 75lbs on SP
and 205lbs on DL last PR was 215lbs just wasn't feeling it today.

215lbs YEAH BABY!

Yesterday i did the WOD

5k but i rowed and did not keep track of time, just went at a slow pace and then I did some DL

with D.
145, 165, 185, 195, 215(pr) 225(f)

It felt so good because last time i did 205 it was a really hard struggle and hurt my back but Ive been really taking the time mentally to focus on my form and to drive it threw my feet like D said, i know next time i could probably do 225 easy, i just realize i cant only do DL when it comes up on a wod i gotta work on it consistently.

So I'm gonna try to work out a new plan, in addition to the WOD, I am going to ad cardio and strenght.

Its getting challenging for me now that we have one vehicle with Jesse gone all day so I'm thinking of going to the gym at 5am while the kids are still sleeping and get a run in or some treadmill time in, and once he is home in the evening ill have to do Crossfit after the kiddos are sleeping, as much as id like to get everything over with early on in the day i know i have allot more strenght during the evening, i guess i gotta do what i gotta do and just make it all about the kids during the day.

Torture

Today's WOD was 150 Wall balls for time with a 20lbs ball i used 10lbs
did it in 9: something seconds

I went in today planing on resting my lower body since it hurts to walk from all the squat snatch we did yesterday i was even trying to convince others not to do the WB today so that i wouldn't feel so bad but then Jen and her husband came in today and the all started doing it, i get all scared and worked up about something and I give up easily, trey convinces me or more like made me feel like a wuss if i didn't do it then i watched Jen do it who was just as sore and then another guy walks and starts doing and i just had to, and so i did it and i feel damm good about it, so i treated myself to an Oreo blizzard afterward and it was great. But i know you all think i am competitive but i never used to be it Crossfit that has made me that way, obviously i know others have strenght in different areas than i do, i just know that allot of time I cant get threw the WOD without the support of everyone there even if it's only Dymphna there she is motivation enough, and AWESOME work Kat.
