april-16-day-223-catching-up

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 …

april-3-day-210-feeling-better

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 …

april-1-day-208-feeling-kinda-low

So, as you (the mythical you, since “you” really means “me”) can see, I haven’t blogged in a while. I find that I’m often spinning plates – and then all the plates crash to the ground. H calls me a “gadget freak” and that’s somewhat true. Have you seen …

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 …
