Thrusters
Strict pullups
K2E 
double unders 
Burpie box jumps




Felt really good during this one i hauled ass through it sprinting between each exercise. Not bad for an early morning crossfit :). It was cool seeing everyone lying on the ground after. I finished with a time of 16:15 and i thought that was pretty good managed to get a few pics on the new cellular device but ill have to get more next time. After this i was feeling my legs still and my back was slightly soar not bad but a little bit from my shitty technique yesterday on deadlifts just like DC said it would. Didnt feel a need to do another XF workout after this one so I opted out of the Crossfit langley adventure and decided to stay home. Got my report card today 3 A's and one B..... A honor roll baby :) seeya all tomorrow 
  Ciao

Technique on back squats was still lacking today. Really have to work on using my legs. I can't quite get the whole consept i dont know why yet..... back squats felt really good was going down controlled and driving my hips forwards on the way up. The stiff leg dead lifts felt really good on the hamstrings as mine have been a little tight this week. Really trying to get efficient at ab wheel have been working at them for a while now and just keep getting a little farther down every time. After the crossfit class we had Belt testing and now I am officially advanced brown belt. Getting so close that i can taste that black belt :P. Seeya all tonight Ciao

Oh and by the way its my mothers 40th birthday today. Or i mean 30th birthday :) well I think she still looks like shes about 29 or 30 but anyways everyone have an awesome day today.

Guess whos back, back again....

Wod 
My order ....
50 wallballs
50 du's
50 box jumps
50 pushpress
50 walking lunges
50 k2e 
50 pullups
Time- 17:34

Dang that was so hard. Haha i think that is how every one of my posts has started and i doubt it will be changing soon.... wallballs were my most difficult exercise i did 40 without stopping and then took a quick breather then finished my last 10. Du's were pretty easy i enjoyed them. Box jumps weren't to bad started with jumps and then half way through had to convert to fast step ups. Pushpress was F$%&*^# hard i found them to be much easier if i did them from the front though. Walking lunges were pretty easy should have probably gone to 30's instead of 20's but oh well. Worst mistake I made during this workout was putting the k2e and pullups together and LAST oh man..... Those killed me at the end of my pullups i was doing sets of 5 or 6. But its not the exercises that kill you its how intense you do them and thats why this workout was so damn hard. Thats what i love about crossfit though its always different. Can't wait to hear how the second class did. Seeya saturday. Oh Jill I loved the biking outfit by the way :).

Holy twizzlers that was a hard one. I could really feel the rowing on my core. I liked the timing on this workout how you had to make it as hard as you wanted. I finished the first workout like this. 1st set- 6 1/2 rounds, 2nd set 6 rounds, third set 6 rounds. The second workout was brutal also i finished 7 rounds, my ab wheel and snatches. Loved the intensity in the gym today. I was getting my ass kicked at the same time as Mia, Leanna and Michelle so I had to haul twizzlers to avoid holding them up. Can't wait to get back tomorrow for a little more torturing thanks DC :)

this workout absolutely killed me I layed around the gym for at least 20 minutes.

I love Crossfit so much holy crap no matter how many times i get my ass kicked i always want more there is nothing else in the world like it. It is amazing how much you can improve just by repitition and commitment. Every time I get on a rower or do a pushup I feel incredible like I can do anything. Its so awesome how much crossfit has taken over my life I have never felt this way about anything in my life I can not wait until tomorrow so i can get right back at it asap!! 
Larry great job tonight way to persist through it and really set the bar high. See you all tomorrow!
