Crossfit Day 1!

Consider my butt kicked! I honestly can't even fake the smile, but I feel it inside. LOL So proud of my family for getting out of our comfort zone and kicking butt together - ok, so we didn't officially kick anyone elses butt except our own, but isn't that the most important one to kick when trying to get healthier? :0)

 

I can't even tell y'all how excited I was all day waiting to go to the gym. I ended up getting off work early, and immediately jumped into my gym clothes - ok, when I say jumped, it really took me like 15 minutes because I was trying to secure "my girls" so I didn't embarrass myself LOL I didn't expect it to be easy by any means, in fact, I would've been disappointed if it was! But I'm excited for where we will be going physically and mentally with this journey. I know I'm in this for the long haul, and my family has promised me a month with an open mind.

With that being said, it truly did kick our butts. The only one who didn't look completely whopped leaving was my 16 yr old, who is already in pretty good shape. We did the warm ups and then some stuff outside. It was pretty crowded inside and the people helping us were very friendly. 

So here is what we did our first day:

15/10/5

Situps

Lunges

Outside we did a timed activity (this may be an every visit kind of thing, I don't know...we will find out soon enough!). My time was 9:44...which may not sound that impressive, but I was sure impressed, even if I felt like I was going to puke at the end, but that's the point, right - push yourself as far as you can! LOL

We did (same reps as above):

box jumps  (on huge tires - mine as scaled to a cinder block)

200 mm runs (I did 200 the first time, then 100 the next two times)

Good Mornings (I didn't use weights for this)

Although I was able to do all of the warm-up they had us do, I struggled with the portion outside. I did all of the box jumps and we had to adjust my run after the first 200 mm. The good mornings I did crossing my hands over my chest, which I have to admit was still kicking my butt! I know I'm gonna feel it tomorrow, but I already can't wait to return on Thursday. :0)

Lunch (no sauce, just a little bit of fresh salsa, 4 oz. 80/20 ground sirloin, 1 cup large elbow noodles, 1 wedge of laughing cow cheese)

I did not get pictures of the other food but here is what I had:

 

Snack was an apple and a string cheese before my work out

Dinner was sirloin beef tips with 1 cup of rice and 1 cup of California vegetables.
