  • The Gluten – Acne Connection

    CrossFit Chick: Diane Tuesdays that feel like Mondays are good and bad. First the good — you get to enjoy the start of the week a day later which means the weekend is a day closer. The harder part is that it feels like Monday so all the harried times of getting the kiddos off…

  • Checking Off My Fitness To Do List

    One Day at a Time I gotta say things are certainly getting better as we get closer to the end of the week. Sometimes I just need to let it out into the universe –all the stress, emotion and anger — and maybe it releases some positive energy and allows me to break through stuff…

  • It’s All Good

    Today was all about the cartwheel — Guess who was the coach? Coach Jerry! There is this one guy who shows up regularly who just will NOT partake in any sort of gymnastics/going upside down exercise. He just wont do it. He literally walks away, no explanation, nothing. I personally think its because he gets…

  • Why Do You CrossFit?

    So –when you workout and live this healthy life, are you doing it for overall health and wellness or are you doing it to look good? Be honest with yourself.  I came across this postthis morning entitled:  Forget how you look. What can you DO? Remember how I wrote about the themes we worked on…

  • Getting the Kinks Out

    So I broke down yesterday and got a deep tissue massage. That kink in my neck was not getting any better and I figured –let’s try something different. I didn’t know I was going to get a deep tissue massage until the guy started working on me trying to get that knot out. He kept…

  • Push It Good!

    I thought we could all use a little Salt n Pepa this AM- Push It! Today’s workout was great. It was made for me — and i love wins like that. So often the workouts are super challenging and I leave feeling like I could have done better if only. Well when I see 2…

  • AMRAPs are Cray!

    Yesterday during coaching, I somehow strained my tricep. I must have pulled a muscle because it really hurts.  So no ego here –I scaled back the workout this AM so I could do it without putting a huge strain on my arms. If you are interested, I posted an updated progression picture. It’s been a while…

  • Redefining Yourself is Like The Laundry Pile – Never Ending

    I’m feeling better! Yeah!  I do however have a very tight muscle in the crux of my back and my triceps hurt.  I am going to do some mobility this weekend to see if it loosens it up.  And today we did Dead Lifts! I love Dead Lifts! I need to remind myself to be…

  • Swim Lanes

    I’m feeling about 80% like myself — and of course that means I go workout. Does it mean I should have gone –shrug! Along with being sick, I am going through a lot of self evaluation right now and not sure if that’s what is depressing me. I haven’t felt this down in a long…
