day off

A couple of CrossFit shirts


Installed a tv/dvd combo above the treadmill
for better watching - Scrubs is the current fave


A happy meal


A ton of flags - for the holiday weekend


Got a new jump rope - so many options!
I actually tried to make one from a rope (go figure)
But it took way too much shoulder work to 
move the rope - it was too light.

In CrossFit, Jumping rope is the warm-up
to an interval work-out! The whole class is an hour long.

Did my 75 reps today!!
Did a little stretching on the work-out ball.
The key to doing lunges - is to do more lunges!

Took some rope - tied it to a weight, 
Sat on the floor and did lifts....
MacGyver lifts!

Protein mix today,
Brisket x 2 with half an avocado
and sf bbq sauce.....
Water and about 3 showers today!

Hope your day is wonderful!

  2. LBN - like it. When I went Primal, I wanted to LGN - Look Good Naked. Kinda think that's a bit over-ambitious. But, I can LBN. Rock it. :)
    Love the happy meal, too. lol
    Your blog always makes me happy. I love your perspective and attitude.
    You rock. :D

  5. I did the 75 reps yesterday and it nearly killed me. :D
    Well not really but it sure was a workout.
    I'm getting ready to do my 30 minutes on the grindstone and then I'll do my 75 reps for today too.

    I like the tv/dvd combo for the treadmill.

    I'd be smiling too if my brisket was covered in avocado.
    Whatever that means. :D

    Have a great weekend!

  9. SheZug - that's what's great about CrossFit!
    The oldest one in the class is 70 years old!
    And she is passing me up!

    CrossFit is "scaled" to whatever level of fitness you are at.
    For example - If you can't do floor push ups (I can't)
    They put a bar up and you do them from there!

    So yeah - that's why it's better than watching a video - for me...
    Group motivation takes over!

  12. The brisket looks great. I'm craving avocado now too. I will have to have Dail stop on the way home to get me one. He won't be very thrilled in this 4th of July traffic. LOL
