Crossfit Weight Maxes

Day 330. Wow. That’s crazy. Yesterday our Crossfit box did a 3-part WOD, the 2nd part of which was the workout we did in February for the Crossfit Open 14.1. If you care, HERE is my writeup about that experience. The workout was a 10 minute AMRAP of 30 …

  If you actually read my blog, you might want to skip this post ;-) This is really just a place to put some “time stamps” related to the Girls Gone WOD Podcast, as they asked folks to name “moments” from their first 49 episodes, for their 50th ne …

Haven’t written in a while. Things are all basically the same ole’ same ole’ – Crossfit, work, a little yoga, etc. We went to Calistoga which was fun, planning our trip to Vancouver Island, etc. One new thing is I started Archery lessons last week – I …

Too much going on to blog, do my GiveIt100 videos, etc. Well, maybe not too much going on – but this thyroid stuff is knocking me for a loop. Can only do one or two things in a day (versus my usual 12,000) and I just have to lie down. It’s so weird. Ye …

So, if you’re ever my Crossfit coach, and I ever just stop moving, best not to bark at me to keep going. (Even a nice bark, Coach Bo.) Because it means I’m trying to stay very, very quiet so I won’t throw up. I’ve heard about this “work so hard I threw …

Ok so yesterday I had a ton of stuff to do (today, too actually), so I didn’t get to the box. I went to my chiropractor and the only time he could see me was right in the sweet spot of when I could work out. Luckily, he’s right down the road from the b …

So, the WOD for today was: Part A: 8 minutes straight of “kipping practice.” Part B: Front squats, 8 x (20 secs on 40 sec rest) Part C: Helen = 3 x (400 run, 21 KBS @ 1 pood, 12 pullups) I wound up being late because not only did I hit the “crazy SUV m …

FRIDAY WOD (today): Part A: 10 Min EMOM 3 Back Squat 120/85KG – no can do this weight. I back squat to a box, think I can do 10k (orange bar) MAYBE 15k (red) 4 Burpee Part B: “Jack” 20 Min AMRAP 10 Push Press 52/35KG – this is 15k for me 10 KBS 1.5/1P …

Okay, SO! I’ve discovered (duh) that the deal with me is that I get all “beat up on myself” when I haven’t been able to get out there and work out. Which is REALLY ridiculous to even TYPE (for me) since I (as per my last blog post) really AM the girl w …

It’s been a week since I wrote – wow! That’s crazy. So what happened in this past week? Well – 14.3 was announced – Deadlifts and Box Jumps. That was right in my wheelhouse. I quite like Deadlifts. Why? Because they don’t involve squatting! And the box …
