I've got some pretty big goals this year....and in order to complete them, I've gotta get my booty back in the gym.
I registered for the 2016 CrossFit Games, but then wasn't able to complete all 5 workouts due to travel and a nagging knee injury.
I'm going to be getting Orthovisc injections in my knee starting this week, on April 6, 13 and 27. In the meantime, I'm going to be adding some workouts, some swimming and cycling workouts to the mix when I can't do impact exercises.
I'm also participating in a Diet Bet with the folks who had weight loss surgery the same time I did. We are all 2-1/2 years out of surgery, and a lot of us have gained at least a little bit of weight back. The battle against obesity is never over.....it's something we HAVE to fight and be aware of every sing day, every single meal....
Also, I need to STOP making excuses. I missed my planned workout this morning at 5:30, because while my alarm was set, it was turned all the way down. So many times (every single other time in my life) I would have written off today as being one without the workout. Instead, today, I realized that I would be done coaching volleyball by 6;45, and there was a 7:00 WOD....so, I got dressed for my workout, put my coach shirt on over it, and headed straight to the box after my game was over.
Tonight's workout was do-able, but I'm sure I'll know it tomorrow morning!
I had to scale the WOD for sure...so mine was:
10 minute AMRAP:
200 meter run
15 Kettlebell swings (scaled to 20#)
10 ring dips (Scaled to "girlie" push-ups)
I finished 2 full rounds, plus got about 3/4 of the way through the 4th run...It was rough!!! I'm ready to go back tomorrow!!
