I have a new addiction. Not since I was in my late teens have I worked-out so hard. Yes, I've started doing Crossfit. (Click the Crossfit to learn). I have never been so pushed and driven to want to workout on a daily basis and inspired by how hard the people around me are pushing themselves. For example the W.O.D. (workout of the day) last night was:
THE CLEANSE
20 POWER CLEAN
20 HANG SQUAT CLEAN
***TIME***
RX: 80%
STRENGTH TRAINING:
PUSH PRESS
5 REP 75%
3+ REP 90%
SPLIT JERK
3 X 1 90+%
I watched in awe and was inspired as these women pushed their way through this workout. Never in my life did I think I would be doing power cleans, squats and dead lifts again (i forgot how much I loved it). Being a "newbie" this was not my workout and we probably only did about 1/2 of this and I can't move and I seriously hurt this morning and the crazy thing is I want more. In the gym there are no egos and no one looks good or pretty doing what they do, everyone is pushing one another and rooting for one another and no matter how long it takes you to get through your WOD, you freakin rock.
Truly inspired.
It's Friday and that means a weekend ahead full of skiing! Woo hoo!
Sending out lots of weekend love and gratitude!
