Guest Days
So I have been perfoming some of the scalled down Crossfit workouts at the house for a little over 3 weeks now, and the guest day for HarborCity Crossfit finally came. I meet my sister there at 9:45 am for a 10:00 am workout. I can honestly say I was a little intimidated just standing there, signing in and talking with some of the people. I just wanted to start the workout, even though this was going to be brutal as described by the sister.
We did some streching and I was obviously one of the worst physically fit individuals in the room. Then we moved over to the wall and I picked up the 20 lb medicine ball and prepared to squatdown and thrust upward heaving the ball up 10 feet to hit a market located on the wall. The two coaches were watching everyone and then we were off, “3, 2, 1 GO!”
I started out pretty well, in fact I had an early lead on my sister which I probably shouldn’t be bragging about, but then I started to hit the wall! I was gassed and I still had many reps to go. I finished the workout in a respectable 15:59, with my sister beating me by a mere 20 seconds. It was a wonderful feeling except for the dizziness and urge to vomit.
I decided to take the plunge and talked to the owners about signing up for real. It looks like I am going to start my intro sessions this week sometime. It is about time I get this train moving.
I haven’t lost anymore weight and I must admit I have been a little let strict on my diet with all my recent travel. It is no excuse, and I have to be stronger metally. We will see where I end up at the end of the week. I am hoping to get to a solid 195.
