Introduction

I was first introduced to CrossFit by my good friend and co-worker Sherri.  She told me about this great workout program she had just started and how much she really liked it and she thought that I would also really like it.  Sherri introduced me to Jens Lovell who is also a co-worker of ours and a certified CrossFit trainer and owner of CrossFit St. George.  They both encouraged me to go that day and workout with them.  That was February 7, 2009 and I have not looked back since.  After getting my butt kicked that day on a workout called "The Baseline" I knew I was hooked.  CrossFit workouts are challenging, difficult, and sometimes vomit inducing but above all that they are fun and each time they leave you with a huge sense of accomplishment.  I know now that CrossFit is not just a workout, its a way of life and now its my way of life.  So follow along with me as I change my life for the better, as I become a stronger, healthier me.  I will blog about the workouts that I do each day and also my successes and failures.  

My CrossFit Goals

1. Lose 60 pounds, and or get down to 20-22% body fat.
2. Compete in the 2010 CrossFit games.
3. Become a certified CrossFit trainer.
4. Introduce my family and friends to the CrossFit lifestyle.

W.O.D.

"Cindy"

As many rounds a possible in 20 minutes of:

5 Pull ups (jumping for me)

10 Push ups

15 Squats

9 rounds finished

This was a really good workout, I like this one because you are using just your body weight for the resistance and in my case that is a lot. I would have like to have gotten at least 10 rounds but I feel ok about my performance. I hope that the next time this workout comes around I'll be able to get closer to twenty rounds and be able to do regular pull ups. I'll just have to work hard and hope for the best.
