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.
    (Just to name a few...)

W.O.D

"Grace"

For time:

30 Clean and Jerks (115 lbs)

10:11

This was my first time doing clean and jerks and it was tough. I liked it though, I am glad that I was able to lift as much weight as I did. I'm only 20 lbs away from what the boys do. I think that once I can get my form perfect I will be able to lift more and do it faster. My trainer Jens did this one for the second time today and he did it with 135lbs in 3:21! He is my hero! Go JENS!!
