  • Saturday Workout

    The weather is incredible this morning — and my day started early with a special staff meeting at CrossFit Impavidus. Then I stayed to do a coach’s workout at 9A that was tough — and at 10A, everyone came for the free workout and my friend Kim was there — so I did a modified…

  • It’s Friday — the best day of the week.

    Today’s workout was the kind that when I saw it posted – just seeing it made me sore! 20m AMRAPs may sound like nothing to those used to being on a treadmill or elliptical but in CrossFit, they are nothing but brutal. Today was certainly no exception — Warmup 400m jog –x3 10 Squats 10…

  • And What’s Your Excuse?

    Jean is at it again…..

  • Life: do whatever it takes

    Inspiration from CrossFit Lisbeth  — Sure, life is going to pummel you but dammit you better fight back. Kick, scratch, claw, do whatever it takes to keep breathing, keep going, to stay alive. It was so stuffy in the gym this morning which makes it an extra spicy workout for someone with asthma. I struggled a…

  • Happy Valentine’s Day to you

You should treat the people in your life well year round and tell them you love them as much as possible. Life is too damn short not too. But if you do like the schmultzy holidays like this — well then Happy…

  • Bacon Wrapped Sweet Potato Fries

    During our workout today, I ran into some tall guy and hit my nose right on his chest bone. Talk about seeing stars! We both hit at full force and I was the casualty. It’s tender and bruised and if it keeps up, I will see the doc. We did a team workout — 100…

  • CrossFit: A Breakthrough Happens When You Least Expect It

    The elevator to success is out of order. You’ll have to use the stairs… one step at a time. – Joe Girard I had a huge breakthrough today that I needed so badly. I finally can say that I did kipping pull ups – no band! Full on Kipping Pull Ups. Something did just click…

  • Reebok: OchoCinco vs. Annie ZigActivate

  • Front Squats and Mobility

    It was another metcon Workout — a Fran style workout with a bit of a twist. You would think that yesterday and today’s workouts that last under 10m would be throw aways but no way. I was totally spent at the end as was everyone else. I workout at 6A and usually there are 10-15…
