today i did 30 minutes on the treadmill at an easy pace. Then I headed over to start my weights. I was following the workout i had from my trainer. I started w/ the gravitron, doing pull ups....i was not out of breath from the run and i don't get dizzy but the minute i had to do 10 pull ups then 10 squats and lifts and then 10 jumping jack burpees i swear i am about to faint. my trainer was able to stop by and make sure i was doing it all and help me on the last set of those jacking jump burpees. i ran out of time to complete the entire workout but the point is i am starting to get this into my workouts twice a week and it should freaking help me. it makes me think that cross fit is probably so super hardcore.
if you do crossfit are you doing it ONLY or in addition to running and other working out ?
saw iron lady at the gym and she mentioned that we might do a river swim !!!! which means i need to go do something with my googles and make sure they don't fog up. sounds like baby shampoo and water mixture.
Next weekend is a 5 mile run in our town and I am signed up for it and I have a goal of doing it in 45 minutes. It has a wicked bad ass hill right at the end. I don't like stating my goals b/c then if i don't make it i feel like a loser but i am realize that there is nothing wrong with having a goal, you have to have something to reach for.
best wishes with the 5 mile race!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the 5 miler! Sounds like fun! good goal, too!
ReplyDeleteI'm like you--I hardly ever state my goals outright--I worry it will jinx me! But you'll do great. Just put it in your head that you're gonna conquer that hill at the end!
ReplyDeleteI think if I did all of that crossfit stuff I would have gotten dizzy too!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your 5miles! You're going to do awesome! :)
