  • It’s all about the Oly Lift: The Snatch

    This past weekend I kind of went a little crazy and had frozen yogurt Thurs and Friday night! We were hanging with the kids and it just felt like the right thing to do — but here’s where I learned a lesson. Before I went gluten/dairy free and mostly Paleo, I had eczema on my…

  • CrossFit 12.5

    I’m off to do CrossFit 12.5 today — Chest to Bar and Thrusters! I have had a bit of a chest cold the past few days but I am not going to let it impact this workout. I am all about strength and I am focused! Let’s do this…            …

  • Make it Work!

    Experience is a brutal teacher, but you learn. My God, do you learn.-C.S. Lewis Last night I headed to CrossFit for an evening workout with the kids in tow. Scott is away at a conference and I have to get my workout in. I armed the kids with distractions and off we went for 1…

  • No Excuses!

    Another rough night of sleep makes for a tough wake up at 515A. But my inner voice no longer tries to talk me out of it. Instead it tells me how upset I will be if I don’t go. Motivation is a muscle that gets stronger over time as well… Warmupx3 20 Double Unders 10…

  • CrossFit: Helen

    Yeah thats me doing 12.3 crossfit open – 75# Push Press. Pretty cool pic I think — and the photographer is pretty good too considering it’s Scotty. He’s been totally getting into photography and loves to come in on Saturday mornings to take some shots. I like to refer to him as my personal photographer……

  • CrossFit Open 12.3 In the Books

    I attempted 12.3 today. My performance was not something to write home about, but I will take it — 3 rounds + 15 + 12 + 7. I could not squeak out those last 2 reps to make it 4. i didn’t push myself super hard in fear of an asthma attack. Im keeping it…

  • A Doozy of a Workout

    The weather in DC area is so beautiful..60s-70s. I feel guilty enjoying it so much. It’s hard to believe that Spring will be here before you know and that means Spring Forward – more sunlight, more time for outdoors and more Vitamin D! The 3rd workout in the games was announced yesterday — and of…
