hollow weenie

At work on a beautiful Sat. Sucks I miss halloween with the kids, but i am sure they will have candy as a surrogate father until tomorrow. This week kicked my ass. I have been sore all week. A couple little slips on the food, but otherwise all is good. Have not heard from the CFE "ers" about Sunday morning run. I did hear that there might be some people running at Lakes Park. Can anyone confirm? I promise I won't run naked! Let me know. see ya soon.

Real push ups

So, today at PT I was chatting with my therapist. She restated one of my goals when I started, "to do real push ups". She said since I have been working out, she wanted to see one. After some hesitation I did a "few". We will leave it at that. Not real pretty and a little painful, but I did some. Baby steps right? Don't worry they won't be part of my work outs anytime soon, but they can be in my warmups. Maybe!
I have been eating really clean. Wait, I did have PF Chang's last night. Only had Beef and veggies. I know the sauce was bad for me, but soooo damn good. I did not know they have a gluten free part of their menu... Something to think about!!!!!
Trail run Sunday. Who's in??? I have to work Sat. and will be off at 7a.m. on Sun. so if 8, is not too late of a start. I am good. Let me know... Oh yea, by the way, Today's wod SUCKED. F'd me up for a long time. Although it is the first day I have lifted anything overhead. Doesn't matter still F'd me up.
To all the CFE girls, I am counting yesterdays football wod as a CFE. It sucked too. 16 x 110m sprints with 40 sec rest. Yea a real puker!
Talk to you later

Saturday

Bored

So it's Sat. right? Patty had to leave town. The girls are statying at her sisters, because I have to work tomorrow. Soooooooo... I went to the gym to do heavy deadlifts tonight???? I think there might be something wrong with me. I guess bored working out is better than bored eating... So I did 555333111 HEAVY!!! Now I am eating a blackened steak, spinach, guac, and a few glasses of red wine. That to me, with the football on tv,it is a good night... Will try to do a CFE at work tomorrow. maybe I'll see you Mon.

WORK for real!

First day on shift in about 2 1/2 months. Nice to be back. A little crazy this week. No wod this morning, Patty had to leave town for a friend of the family. She will be back Mon. So our morning routine was f'd up. I will try to do a wod at work. Will be at the gym late in the morning. Very hungry today and I don't know why? Been clean on the groceries though. See ya

Wednesday

My mind says yes, but my body say NO!

When the alarm sounded at 4:30 I really felt I was physically unable to work out. So, I didn't. How's that for comfort zone? Then I got up later, decided to skip my last half day of light duty, and went to work out about 8:30. Very tight, sore back, and legs felt the same. I wound up doing the CFE wod Kary did the other morning on the rower. 3x5min with 3 min rest. 1341m,1271m, and 1279m. Kinda sucked. Might do some sprints after therapy??? Totally clean eating so far this week... could there be a week with no cheats? doubt it! Still need to hook up with cfe girls and get a schedule. cya

Monday

Wow

Another great CF cert. This past weekend was awesome. The wods kicked our asses, but the information shared was invaluable. It was yet another reason I love the Crossfit community. People that are tops at what they do, willing to give you everything they know. So much information... need time to organize it all. Just watch out for the "dead bugs"!!!!!!! Oh you'll see. I ate really pretty clean this weekend. Just a little too much beer. My soreness did not allow me to workout today... so I will get ready for tomorrow. Cya soon
