As I previously explained I took 3 days off from CrossFit to rest a pulled left bicep, I worked out today and did 7 rounds of:
1) Standing Jump to a 20" high box - 7 times
2) Squat 95 pounds - 7 times
3) Throw a 10 pound medicine ball to the 10' high mark on the wall, catch it, squat and repeat. - 7 times
I had a 8:30 workout with no breakfast, then after the workout I immediately went to a meeting to discuss and chose light fixtures for my new house, then I went home and showered. The funny thing was I weighed myself and after starving all morning and sweating, by 12pm when I got on the scale I was 5 pounds lighter than when I weighed myself Friday.
I didn't have the healthiest of diets this weekend, in fact I indulged myself Friday and Saturday with the full intention of working out Sunday. I ended up getting stuck out of town Sunday and missed the workout. I took Monday off because the W.O.D would have exaggerated my injury; and here we are. Worked out today and was 5 pounds lighter.
CrossFit is a body changer! I was able to do ring work without the rings being lowered to 3' off the ground, my ring pull ups are coming easier and my wife thinks I look slimmer. When I was doing p90x, it also changed my body, but I was sore all the time, and too tight to fully swing a golf club. My soreness goes away sooner now when I CrossFit on a daily basis, and I'm hardly tight at all so I can swing away.
Thank you CrossFit.
