As I was walking to the doors of The Martial Centre a friend of mine was walking out, dripping in sweat telling me to "ask for Riddick". I'm glad I didn't take his advice...Riddick is an intense WOD given to delinquent and tardy CrossFit participants.
From now on the WOD will be written on the white board in the CrossFit room, along with names and times next to them. Tonight's top female time was something sick like 10:15, geezus!
How I felt...
Just "GITRDONE" as Trudy would say. I'm noticing that we're more focused going through the WOD than we were when we first started, but that could be because we didn't learn any new exercises today - as we'll expect the longer we keep going.
So how did I do?
Like I said, nothing new tonight, but a great workout nonetheless. We were timed to complete the following, after an 800 m (approx) run and 25 wall squats - throwing medicine balls at the wall and squating.
What lies ahead...
Tomorrow marks the official first day of the 30-day Paleo challenge. What is it? Simple, eat Paleo (meats, vegetables etc.) for the next 30 days and see how you feel at the end. No group weigh ins, no measurements, just you against yourself and setting your own goals. Sounds good to me. I'm going to share the recipes I'll use from time to time. I feel so good already.
I'm also starting Yoga tomorrow, which should increase my flexibility and teach me great stress relief techniques. Looking forward to it. I've tried Yoga before, but find it so hard to fully commit to it. I'm doing 5 sessions in June, so hopefully that will help me to find a routine for it.
