  • Double Unders seem so easy!

    Thought I would share a video about Double Unders, which is another step up from just jumping rope, that one of the trainers, Nate at Crossfit Impavidus shared with us:

  • Deadlifts & Pull Ups and Fun – Oh My!

    Have you seen some people who work out all the time and you can tell they are super strong but they still have the extra weight around their mid section? This used to be me. It was so frustrating too. I just couldn’t get my head around how this could be — I know I…

  • Sumo Deadlift High Pull Fun

    I’m going to take a rest day tomorrow — the workouts this week have been tough and my body is telling me to take it easy.  Today’s WOD at Crossfit Impavidus was no exception — Warmupx3 Jumping Jacks 10 35lb KB Swings 10 OH Squats 10 33lb bar 10 push ups Dynamic stretching Skill SDHP…

  • Stop, Clean & Jerk

    It’s important to stop and appreciate all you have daily. This morning – I included a pic of my kids getting ready to leave for school this morning. They bring me so much joy and teach me so much every day. I can’t imagine my life without these 2 rascals and I am glad I…

  • Crossfit Impavidus: It’s your box too

    Another Crossfit Impavidus training session this morning and my shoulders were not too pleased! I was also the only one that came to the 6A class so I basically had a personal training session with Nick. That is good and bad. You can’t really slack when the trainer has only you to focus on —…

  • Getting to know Kip.

    No falls this morning at Crossfit Impavidus – that was a bonus right there.  My friend Oy came to the 6A class & added an extra element of fun. And the same people are showing up to the class so it’s becoming more like home to me every day. I am really liking Coach Nick.…

  • Call me Dominque Dawes – NOT!

    After yesterday’s parallettes, my arms and shoulders are sore! I thought about taking a rest day today, but I am seriously having so much fun at Crossfit Impavidus that I wanted to get up and go.  Had I know we were going to do even more shoulder/arm work — I may have thought twice. Warmup…

  • WOD + Challenge

    Today’s WOD at Crossfit Impavidus was all about kettle bells and box jumps! I am feeling yesterday’s WOD of Burpees and Dead lifts. I unwrapped my Foam Roller and used it to work out the muscles in my abductors/inductor area.  It’s like getting a painful massage — not sure where the joy is in that…

  • Deadlifts

    Woke up this AM to a nice thick layer of ice on the cars. My car is in the garage but my brother is in town for business, so his rental was behind mine and poor Scotty –he and I scraped the ice off the rental so that i could back out. As I have…
