3rd WOD of the year is a short one:

Double DT
10RFT
12 Deadlifts
9 Hang Cleans
6 Push Jerk

My-grip-is-SHOT! 😵‍💫

No better way to start a Saturday (and new year!) than with a horrible WOD! 😂😴😵‍💫 This took me way too long, but that's ok because I finished. 🙌🏼💪🏼

Who's starting off their year with a workout?

#2022

When your friend says she can only join you for a workout early in the morning you make it happen... and enjoy the patio while you wait. 🤓

Being a full time working parent and maintaining fitness is HARD.... trying to do that during a pandemic when their emotional needs (and mine!) have skyrocketed and the work-load increased (due to my accounting profession and my spouse’s career), was almost impossible! 🤕🥴

2020 was a rough year as I tried to find a new work-life balance (including reducing my work hours so I could be the at-home teacher I was now required to be) and I really didn’t see any extra “me” time in this shift. And that’s ok. We can fall down and try again when we’re ready. I’m ready.

Turning 40 has solidified the biological changes I’ve been ignoring for a few years so with the intent to be better about my food choices because my body is aging, I’m working on that one day at a time.

I’ve been tracking my workouts on Beyond the White Board for, gosh, 6+ years, and I LOVE that it shows me how many reps of various movements I’ve been tracking over that time.

So even if you feel discouraged or frustrated with where you currently are, today is a new day to try again. Don’t wait for a Monday or new month; start today. Your future self will thank you. 🥰💪🏼🤜🏼🤛🏼

Turns out 6:30 pm feels just like 6:30 am... who knew?! 🤔🤓 I hate working out in the evenings but I gotta work off some of that cookie cake from my kid’s birthday yesterday... 🤮

So it's been a while since I posted as the struggle with work/life balance has been real since going back to work in 2018. 2020 was definitely not my best year, but we keep trying again and eventually we'll get back on the path we desire. 😄

2021 is going to be another challenging year, but I know we can get through this together! My goals are to be more meaningful with my workouts (instead of just squeezing them in) and focus on quality of work I'm doing. Also, COVID-15 # is real, guys! 😂

I've got 6 months to get this body beach-ready, so who's with me?! What are your goals for 2021?

When the kids decide your workout looks like fun... 😜 Ring rows, snatches and Kcal rows... that’s what Saturdays are for. 🤨💪🏼🏋🏻‍♀️

In honor of the Crossfit Games this week, I’ve been programming open workouts to celebrate. Enjoying the games so far and SO excited to watch the progression this weekend! Who are you rooting for? ?? 🤣💪🏼🏋🏻‍♀️🏋🏻‍♂️🏆

I’m still slow as molasses but I’m still trying. 21:45 2 mile run is pretty good for me so I’ll take it! Gotta keep this heart healthy; what are you doing this holiday weekend?

When you’re in the middle of your workout and you realize you have the sock protecting the wrong leg... 🤦🏻‍♀️ Guess it’s been a while since I climbed a rope! 😜

Rope climbs can be brutal, but it’s still better than sleeping in. 🙂💪🏼 Get moving today! No one ever said that resolutions can only be made In January. June’s a great time to restart your health goals for 2019! You can do challenging things. 🙌🏼
