Starting the week off strong!

in #fitness7 years ago

Hello Steemians!

It's Monday, which means a fresh start. I may have been a little loose with my nutrition this weekend lol. But that's OK, I'm human. I like treats and pizza.

^ Arm gains?? ^

So today was a crossfit metcon. I started with a quick warm up as usual then just did the wod. Nothing real fancy just straight work.

Warm up.

If you're not familiar with the down up, it's a burpee without the jump.

The Workout.

Ok I'm not gonna lie, this was a roaster, even with the light barbell. After 3 min I was thinking, "Geez maybe I should just do 10 min."
But, I tried to push that out of my head.
Then at 8 min I was thinking, "Ok, I should just do 15 that's still a good workout."
I had to dig to get the will power to make it to 20, I'm not gonna lie, lol. But when I saw I was at 19 I just decided to hammer it, finish round 10 and get in a few extra reps. Most of the time you just have to shut off your brain and work.

Try this one out if you want to get a good full body workout in 30 min.

Also!

We got the playset up! I need to level it because our backyard is on a slight incline, but it's sturdy as heck and Lola is so happy.

Ok guys I hope you all started the week off strong 💪
Get out there and get those reps! Join the fitness challenge and have a great day!

Haha! That's exactly how I felt today!

I love that. Shut your brain off and work. Truest statement yet!

Absolutely. Unless you have strep. In that case you gotta rest lol. Hope you're feeling better.

Haha thanks bro. I appreciate it. Throat still hurts but as long as I don’t have a fever I’ll be fine lol.

It looks like you've got a jump cage trampoline as well. Have you ever tried doing any gymnastics?

Man I wish I would have got into gymnastics when I was younger. My mother in law went to college on a gymnastics scholarship, my wife did gym, and now my daughter does it. But I'll still get on there and flip around with Lola.
