2008-09-11T20:51:00.000-07:00

10 Rounds for time:
2 - Skin the cat/ 6 k2e
6 - Archer ring pushups
20 - double unders

Good workout today but my body is still very sore from yesterday. I tried the skin the cat before we started and could do it but during the workout I couldn't get them so I subbed for k2e's. Those archer ring pushups were hard, did them from my knees but I could feel them working and will feel them tomorrow I'm sure. Double unders are getting better, still one skip between though.
I am looking forward to a day off tomorrow!!

2008-09-11T14:09:00.000-07:00

Workout of the Day
10 Rounds
10 Back squats loading BW
10 Bench press 75% BW
10 Kipping pullups/20 Jumping pullups
rest as needed between sets

This was a fun one! I did 75lbs for my squats. The first 5 of every round were ok but the last 5 were a bit more of a challenge. I did them all though so thats what matters! Bench press I used 20lbs. I originally went for the 15lbs and then changed my mind. I always seem to underestimate myself! I should've pushed myself and did
25's.

2008-09-11T09:55:00.000-07:00

So I took a break from posting for a while as I have been sick for the past month and have had no energy. I have still been going to crossfit but my head has been somewhere else so I haven't been giving 100%. I also haven't been feeling as confident in myself which is making some of my workouts really difficult to get through. Anyways I am finally starting to feel better so I will get my but back on the computer posting as I know many of you need reading material for your work day:) hehe

2008-08-18T20:55:00.000-07:00

5 Rounds
320 m row
Max bench press 50lbs

So going into this I really didn't think it was going to be all that bad...ya right! This one felt like torture, especially being on the rower. 320 meter row doesn't seem like that much but every time I was on there I felt like I was going to puke. Then from there bench press as many reps as you can. Oh my god! I did 50 lbs and managed to get out 19 the first round which I was pretty happy with. After that I can't remember but by the last one I'm pretty sure I only did 9. I had Coach spotting me for one of the rounds and I managed to get a few extras reps in there because of his help.

Tuesday, August 12th

2008-08-17T21:41:00.000-07:00

7 Rounds
10 - DB split jerks loading use 23% of BW
10 - Box jumps
10 - Ab wheels
1 - Rope climb
10 - Pushups

I loved this workout but alot of this one was mental for me. I decided at the beginning that I was going to do all of the box jumps and all of those rope climbs with no modifications even if I was the last one done, which sure enough... The first couple of rounds were ok but after that I was getting pretty exausted. Climbing that rope was hard as I have only done it once and took so much of my energy! I was half way up on my last round and felt like I couldn't pull myself any higher. My arms were on fire and my feet kept slipping off. I was frusterated and pretty close to giving up but I could hear a few voices yelling at me to keep going. I don't even know who it was but their motivation totally helped me focus and get to the top!

Monday, August 11th

2008-08-17T21:22:00.000-07:00

WOD
60 Skips 30 Burpees 30 Situps
40 Skips 20 Burpees 20 Situps
20 Skips 10 Burpees 10 Situps
5 k run

My time on the run was 29:06 which I was pretty satisfied with. It was my first 5k run and I really had no idea how long it would take me. My goal was just to do the run without stopping and I did so I was pretty happy with that! Next time maybe 26 minutes??

Saturday, August 9th

2008-08-13T12:49:00.000-07:00

7 Rounds
8 Calorie row
10 SDHP 75/55lb
dips from bench
15 box jumps
10 wall balls 20/12lb to ten ft target
10 ab wheel rollouts
You have 30 sec @ each station, your goal is to complete the # or until time ends. You get 7 sec. to move to the next station. Set your time for 30 sec of work and 7 sec of rest or use the rest period to help reach your goal.

When I got to the box I looked the board and it said 42 rounds! I wanted to go leave and go back home to bed but thank god it ended up being seven rounds all together... still hard but not 42!

There were alot of people there so the workout took about a round for everyone to get the hang of what was going on. Once we did it seemed to go pretty smoothly and there was tons of energy! We went in sets of 3's for 30 seconds at each station. I dreaded every time I got to the damn wall balls and SDHP stations. I found both to be pretty tough. The wall balls take some coordination which I am lacking lol and after about the third round of sumo lifts I was having a hard time getting the bar to my chin. Other than those everything felt pretty good. I love seeing so many people at the Saturday class!

2008-08-12T18:09:00.000-07:00

Workout of the Day
3 Rounds
Row 30sec on/30 off 4x

This workout was pretty different and I think one of the longest ones I have done at crossfit. It ended up taking about 45 minutes and it was perfect after having some time off for the long weekend. Everything felt hard but I loved it!

Thursday, July 31st

2008-08-07T20:11:00.000-07:00

Squat clean
6-5-4-3-2-1
Jumping pullups rest 2 min
Burpees
8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
Knees to elbows
I hated this one. My cleans were frusterating as usual. I got a few good ones in there and then decided to add ten pounds because I have been doing the same weight for a while. I let my mind take over and and couldn't even clean the bar up. I seem to always tell myself I can't do these and don't know why...Pisses me off!
Anyways burpees weren't fun. I had Chad coaching me and he wasn't going easy. I had to get my chest to the ground and if I didn't I was redoing them. Damn you Chad! He told me he was going to make me "break a sweat"... well I did! Thanks buddy:)

2008-07-31T21:42:00.000-07:00

Jumping Pullup/Dip
20/1, 18/2, 16/3, 14/4, 12/5, 10/6, 8/7, 6/8, 4/9, 2/10
in between each set of pullups and dips 7 DL's @95lbs and 7 ab wheel rollouts
TIME 17:23

THIS WAS HARD! (but I liked it!) I had to do double the amount of pullups because I had to modify to jumping. I did the dips from the box with feet elevated instead of the bench which was a first for me and it took everything I had to get that tenth one out! Deadlifts felt like the easy part of this workout, the ab wheel by far the worst...

After class I stayed for MMA. I really like that class and look forward to getting good, or at the very least look like I know what I'm doing! I was partnered up with Hollie and she almost knocked me over more than once with her kicks and punches, my god she is strong! I will get her back eventually though...you too Leanna you'd better watch out;)

Tuesday, July 27th

2008-07-31T13:11:00.000-07:00

Front Squat
3-3-2-2-1-1-1
63,73,78,83,83,88,88

As many rounds in 10 minutes:
12-push ups
10-jumping pullups chest to bar
8-weighted situps feet anchored #15db behind the head
4-sandbag to shoulder power cleans 77lbs men 47lbs ladies
4 rounds + sandbags

Fun workout today. I was pretty happy about getting my PR at 88lbs for my front squats. Everything else felt good too but those sandbags got pretty damn heavy!

Monday, July 26th

2008-07-29T22:50:00.000-07:00

500m row
50 air squats
30 pushups
30 weighted situps db held behind the neck feet anchored
30 jumping pullups
30 db swings (15 per arm)20lb
45 k2e
50 OHS stick
Time 17:11

The weighted situps felt impossible so I put the dumbell on my chest...I won't be doing that next time though. I hated the pullups and the K2E's and ended up breaking them up. I waited till the very end to do the rower which I shouldn't have done because I had no energy left. OHS with the stick were no problem compared to the rest of this workout. I came back to the box at 7:30 and did martial arts for the first time and really liked it. It was so much fun working with Leanna and Hollie and learning some of the kicks and punches. Looking forward to going back on Wednesday!

Saturday, July 26th

2008-07-29T20:25:00.000-07:00

20 Rounds of clean & jerk you go as many reps in 1 minute and then you rest 1 min while your partner pumps out as many reps as possible.

800 single skips (400 each)
100 burpees (50)

This Saturday morning class was packed with 20 crossfitters! It was pretty awesome having so many people at the box at the same time. Lots of great energy and motivation!

I used 20lb dumbells for the clean and jerk. The one minute on felt like it was never going to end but the minute rest went way too quick. Skips were fairly easy as we did 800 singles instead of 200 DU's. Burpees were hard and tiring. I was trying to get as close to the ground as I could and it sure made a difference compared to how I was doing them before. I want to start working on them as I have been hearing something about a burpee challange??

Thursday, July 24th

2008-07-28T22:27:00.000-07:00

Deadlift
5-5-5-5-5
103,123,134,134,134
4-400m runs at LSS

This was pretty sweet as it was the heaviest load I have done so far. I stayed with the 134lbs for the three sets because my back was starting to round with that and I didn't want to do any serious damage to myself! haha

Wednesday, July 23rd

2008-07-28T13:29:00.000-07:00

Front squat
2-2-2-2-2
63,68,73,78,83

As many rounds in 10 minutes:
10 - walking lunges with a sandbag shouldered 77lb men 47lb woman
make sure to shoulder alternate sides
2 - Mu's or 6 pullups /6 ring dips
10 - situps
Note if you cannot to a ring dip then use stationary rack or if this is to much use a bench with feet elevated on a box.

I really liked this one. The front squats felt really good and I was pretty happy getting up to a whole 83lbs! haha. Only having two to get through at a time works well for me, after I do one, just tell myself ok one more to go!!

The sandbags were awesome. I was pretty pumped because the last time I worked with the sandbag we had to get them from the ground to our shoulder twice and I couldn't do it. I could get the bag to my chest and then I would drop it. Now I can get that damn thing over my shoulder and do lunges! I never would've thought I would be doing that...and enjoying it??

2008-07-24T22:09:00.000-07:00

So I was really dreading doing this workout as I checked the website and saw a bunch of exercises I really don't enjoy doing. I went over a bunch of excuses in my head why I should take the day off but then decided to suck it up and go. I was pleasantly surprised when I came in, checked the board and saw this!

12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1

K2E
Hanging DB cleans 20lbs
Box Step Ups
Ab Wheel Rollouts
Push Ups

This workout was tough and I was wondering how the heck I was going to get through it after the third round! DB cleans were hard for me as usual... shrugging too early. The box step ups felt easy compared to the fifty we did the other day!

Monday, July 21st

2008-07-24T21:54:00.000-07:00

Back at it!

Row 500m @ 2 min pace
50 box step ups
Row 500m @ 2 min pace
20 hanging cleans 50lb
Row 500m @ 2 min pace
25 dips
3 Rounds
16 jumping pullups
8 goblet squats 25lb
8 situps
8 pushups
8 K2E

Oh my god did I suck at this one! It was my first day back in 4 days which may not seem like alot but I sure felt it. I really couldn't believe the difference I felt from 4 days of not dieting and exercising. I was going quite slow the whole time pretty much just trying to get this one done.

Thurs, Friday, Sat, Sun DAYS OFF!

2008-07-23T21:07:00.000-07:00

I took a few days off because my brother was getting married and I was super busy with wedding stuff. It ended up being a fantastic day and everything went pretty smoothly. It was nice having a four day break from crossfit and my diet but I felt kind of guilty at the same time. I think I may have indulged in a little too much wine and dessert but at the time it sure felt worth it:)

Wednesday, July 16th

2008-07-23T20:50:00.000-07:00

As many rounds in 20 minutes:

6 - jumping pullups
4 - K2E
6 - Elevated pushups from a 10" box
8 - DU's
10 - Walking lunges

I did the ten o'clock class because I took the day off work. It's nice getting the WOD out of the way in the morning and you then you don't have to think about it for the rest of the day. Bad part is that it's not posted that early so you don't have time to mentally prepare! I ended up with 10 rounds plus pullups, K2E and pushups. My DU's are improving and I can now do them with a skip between each one. The elevated pushups were HARD.. I was happy when this one was over!

Tuesday, July 15th

2008-07-23T20:30:00.000-07:00

7 rounds of
12 bench dips
1 rope climb or 2 modified rope climb
12 back squats

I wasn't feeling this workout today. There weren't enough stations so I had to use dumbells for the squats which I didn't like at all. I only did 40lbs but I know I could've done alot better with the bar. I actually found the dumbells to be harder and trying to get them both up to my shoulders was kind of awkward after a while. During the workout I did the modified version of the rope climb and then decided after class give the rope a try. I surprised myself and climbed to the top on the first try which felt great!

Monday, July 14th

2008-07-23T20:22:00.000-07:00

7 Rounds
Snatch deadlift+Hang power snatch+OHS+Behind the neck press
repeat this sequence 5x total.
In between each round do 10 ab wheel rollouts

I think that I did this with 40lbs or was it 30lbs? Ahhh I can't remember! No more posting 2 weeks later!

Saturday, July 12th

2008-07-23T19:12:00.000-07:00

20 Rounds
5 -Power cleans 50lb
7 - Burpees
200m run
Looks like this : 1st round partner #1 does P.cleans Partner #2 does burpees Partner #1 200m run.
2nd rd:Partner #2 does P.cleans Partner #1 Burpees Parnter #2 200m run. So by the end each person will have done 50 power cleans, 70 Burpees and run 2km.

This was such a good wod. I love doing the partner workouts as they really help keep you motivated. Ruth was my partner and she did a great job! I don't think there was an easy element to this workout... I felt like my technique was decent for once on my power cleans. The hardest part for me were the burpees and by the end I could just barely get out the seven!

Thursday, July 10th

2008-07-23T19:04:00.000-07:00

100 - Shoulder presses 40lb
Every time you put down the weight run 200m

Oh wow this one sucked and I really had no stratagy here! I did 14 reps the first two rounds and then my numbers were all over the place! I ended up with 10 runs in total which were actually a nice break:)

Wednesday July 9th

2008-07-23T18:59:00.000-07:00

I haven't updated in a while so this I am just going to post the workouts that I remember.

5 Rounds
5 - Power cleans 50lb
15 - Jumping Pullups (chest to bar)
12 - Single DB Bench press 20lb (6 per side)

Tuesday, July 8th

2008-07-14T19:57:00.000-07:00

As many rounds in 20 minutes:
5 - Deadlifts 115lbs
10 - Pushups
10 - Single arm DB snatches 20lbs
200m run

This workout was awesome! I liked all the exercises we did today. I managed to get in seven rounds in twenty minutes which felt more like an hour! I was pretty happy with the 115lbs deadlift as it's the heaviest I have done and actually think I could've done more weight if I pushed myself...next time:)

Monday July 7th

2008-07-14T19:42:00.000-07:00

3 Rounds
15 - B. Press @ 40lb - 400m run
15 - B. Press @ 45lb - 400m run
12 - B. Press@ 45lb - 400m run
3 Rounds
15 - B squats @ 50lb - 50 box step ups
15 - B squats @ 55lb - 50 box step ups
10 - B squats @ 60lb - 50 box step ups

I need to start writing my numbers down because I always seem to forget because I am about a week behind in updating this thing.
The bench press was not fun! It was the first time I had done this exercise and I am glad Mia was there spotting me because I probably would've ended up with the bar on my chest! I felt so weak doing 40lb but it was a struggle. The run was actually a nice break in between. Back squats were good. I am actually starting to like doing them. (I never thought I would say that)! Having the box step ups in between sets kept my heart pounding the whole time. Felt great!

Sunday, July 6th

2008-07-11T07:31:00.000-07:00

No crossfit today but needed to get off my but and do something so we went to LSS and did a little workout.

400 metre run
50 air squats
400 metre run
50 pushups
400 metre run
50 situps
400 metre run
LSS bleachers up and down each set twice
This workout felt good. The 50 pushups were hard and I had to stop a few times. The bleachers were also tough, legs were burning!

Saturday, July 5th

2008-07-11T07:27:00.000-07:00

5 Hanging power cleans 50lb
15 Jumping Pullups
12 Single DB push press @ 20lb(6 per side)

Thursday, July 3rd

2008-07-09T23:00:00.000-07:00

500m row

500m row
25-wall ball
500m row
25-k2e
3 Rounds
6-Power snatch-OHS-B.squat-good morning-push press

Two new exercises today! The wall balls were pretty hard. I wasn't getting low enough in my squats and I wasn't close enough to the wall because a few times the ball would bounce off and hit the ground. I'm sure I looked pretty funny trying to do these!... they need some practice! Row was good and tired me out as always. The last exercise was pretty fun. I only used the bar but it still challenged me.

HAPPY CANADA DAY!

2008-07-07T22:16:00.000-07:00

So the Deboer family, Sherrie and I decided to do the grind again. We got there around 11:30 and headed up the mountain. Everyone started off quite a bit quicker than Sherrie and I but knew what to expect and didn't want to use up all my energy right away. At about the first quarter I ended up on my own. Luckily I brought my i pod with me so I had some music to help keep me motivated. I really tried to keep moving for the most part but I stopped for about 30 seconds at every quarter to catch my breath and have a drink. I didn't want to waste too much time standing around as I really wanted to beat my time of 1 hour 8 minutes from Saturday. The last quarter was definatly the toughest for me as it's the steepest and by that time my legs were burning and I was exausted. I got through it and ended up making it up in 1 hour 5 minutes. I thought my time was going to be better but I know I did my best so I was satisfied with it. Now I just have to try it again so I can make that 1 hour.
These are everyone times which were all awesome!
- John 43
- Jay 46
- Chad 49
- Hollie 57
- Colin 1:00
- Jenn 1:05
- Sherrie 1:15

Since crossfit was closed all weekend Chad and I decided to do a little crossfit of our own. I let him choose the workout...what was I thinking! The first rounder was short but I was pretty tired after it. I never would've thought 3 minutes of working out would make me tired! The second round was rough. The easiest parts for me were the squats and skipping. The pushups were bad and in every round after about the tenth pushup I wanted quit. The worst part was the run though. I don't recommend running in 30 degree weather wearing black pants! I am glad Chad was going through it with me because he kept me motivated as always:)

GROUSE GRIND DAY!

So I agreed to go with Jesse and do the grouse grind. I didn't really know what to expect so I asked a few people who had done it before what it was like. They told me how challanging it was and a few of them said they would never do it again. I was feeling pretty intimidated and was thinking about calling to cancel. I have never even been on a hike before let alone hike up a mountain in 30 degree weather! Anyways, I thought about it more and decided I wasn't going to let my fear get in the way. I went for it and am really glad I did. We managed to get up the mountain in 1 hour and 8 minutes staying at a pretty steady pace. Jesse could've done it alot faster but he stuck with me the whole time. When we got to the top I felt great and couldn't stop smiling. The view was amazing and I was feeling pretty proud of myself for getting through it even though I thought I couldn't. I am doing it again tomorrow with Sherrie and the Deboer clan and look forward to beating my time!

Day of Rest

Thursday June 26th

2008-06-29T18:55:00.000-07:00

WOD

Row 20sec on 10off 4x
2 min 3 burpees + 6 jumping pullups
Row 20sec on 10off 4x
2 min 5 pushups + 5 deck squats 25lbs
Row 20sec on 10off 4x
2 min 6 tricep dips + 6 jumping pullups Rest 2 min
Row 500m
40 single arm DB swings 20lb(20per side)
25 K2E
Row 500m
25 pushups
25 Du's

Wow what should I say about this workout...It was a good one and kept my heart pumpin thanks to the rower! I liked the DB swings and the deck squats which I had never done. Before I started crossfit I would always do "girl pushups". I am now doing real pushups and they are coming along. I felt good during the workout but the last 500m row was pretty hard to get through!

Wednesday June 25th

2008-06-26T12:54:00.000-07:00

3 Rounds
10 - Hang squat cleans 50lb
2 min box step ups
3 Rounds
12 - Front squats 50lb
500m row @ 2 min pace

I started this workout with the rower and then onto front squats. I actually don't mind them. I like most exercises with my legs as I find I am better at them. Then onto box steps. You think 2 minutes isn't long but when you are trying to keep a good pace going 2 minutes feels like forever. Leanna was standing there timing me and was encouraging me to keep on goin, so I was trying:)
And then cleans. Ohhh more cleans..I hate these things and I always have trouble with them. I would do about 3 and then drop the bar. Then do another 3 and drop the bar again. It gets extremely discouraging when I know what I am doing wrong yet continue to keep doing it. I managed to get through them eventually. I know I will get them, I just need to stop thinking so much!

7 Rounds
10 - pullups/20 Jumping
10 - box jumps
10 - DB split snatches @ 20% bw
10 - Ab wheels

Time 18:13
Just when you think "Oh this one won't be too bad today..." hahaha
This was a good workout. I used 15lbs for the split snatch but I'm sure I could've done 20lbs..I know for next time.
It felt like my face was on fire the entire workout and especially when I was doing the ab wheel. I stayed bright red for about an hour after I got home. I always look so PRETTY after crossfit! hahahaha ;)

Push Press 10 - 8 - 6 - 4 - 2 - 2 - 2
50-55lbs

Squat clean 8 - 6 - 4 - 2 - 2 - 2
50lbs

Neither one of these exercises are my favorite. I was really trying to practice getting the technique right today. I need to keep practicing keeping the bar closer to my body and getting those elbows up on those squat cleans...Thanks Chad for all the pointers, you are going to make an awesome crossfit coach!

After crossfit Jesse, Sherrie and I went to LSS for a run. It was great to be outside tonight, it's starting to feel like summer!

The single arm bench presses were hard for me. I have never done them before and I know my technique was not correct. 15lbs was too easy for me as I could do at least 8on each arm but I could barely get 20lbs up..what's with that??
This workout was weird. I don't understand how I can deadlift 100lbs but barely do a 20lb bench press...my arms need alot of work!!!! So annoying!

REST DAY:)

My very first crossfit blog

2008-06-19T20:47:00.001-07:00

So I decided to start a little blog for myself. This is new for me as I just learned what a blog was. I joined crossfit about a month and a half ago. Before that I was spending 2 hours or more a day at the gym and getting extremely bored. I also wasn't seeing any results and was getting very frusterated. Sherrie found crossfit online so we decided to give the bootcamp a try. The first few classes seemed pretty easy butI found they got more challenging every time I came back. By the end of bootcamp I wasn't sure if I was ready for crossfit, I was scared but thought I would give it a try anyways. I have to say that I am already hooked.
I have never been into sports or challenging myself physically. I didn't even know how. Slowly but surely, day by day I am learning...Some days are better than others. I am also learning that it's not all what you are physically capable of, but alot of crossfit is a mind game. It's very interesting the power your mind has over your body. I have heard that from so many of the crossfitters and I am starting to see it first hand. I know I have a long way to go... lots of patience, sweat and swearing but I am up for the challenge and looking forward to seeing some more progress!
