Sorry for the late post. I had another Crossfit session with Nichole this morning and have been on the go ever since.
Today's session:
Warm-up - stretches, sit-ups, kettlebell swings, 500m row, 800 m run with squats
Tire Workout (3 rounds) - 3 tire lifts/flips (similar to a deadlift but with a big tire), 10 push-ups with my hands on the tire, 10 jumping into center and out of tire
Cool down - wall squats
I was already hurting a little bit after jogging and climbing yesterday, but I think from now on I shall be perpetually sore. But I'm not complaining. It feels good. I missed Crossfit so much even though I'm not very good at it and really out of shape. I must admit, I needed a nap yesterday, but my writing productivity is up already. Six more pages last night.
Plus there's an unexpected fringe benefit I have discovered.
After two sessions, I'm quickly realizing the Lab is romance writer inspiration central. I have stumbled upon a place where the hardbodies hang out. I'm not talking about the icky body builder type physique. The Climbing Cutie started doing Crossfit here and you all know what he looks like! I'm talking athletic build. Hero bodies.
Think sweat gleaming on masculine faces and muscles after a run or workout. Imagine firefighter and military heroes who leave heroines feeling safe, secure and breathless in their arms. Not to mention totally turned-on. A kiss would have the heroine tasting a potent mixture of salt and heat. No way could she keep her hands from touching those muscles or her fingers from curling the dampened ends of his hair.
Hmmm, wonder if I can deduct my Crossfit classes as a writing expense.
Did you do anything physical today?

Yep, I think Crossfit is research, plain and simple. Maybe I should have said PAIN and SIMPER? Hmmm?
I like your kind of research.
LMAO!
You guys know how I love research ;)
I've said it before, but I'll say it again. I have the best job ever!
Does running after a 4 year old and an 18 month all day count as being active? :-) Seriously, I got in a 30 minute workout yesterday but today is a bust.
Whew! Is it hot in here or is it just me? *G* Sounds like cool research to me.
That said, sounds like you're having a good time. Perpetually sore isn't such a bad thing. *G*
Have a good evening!
That counts Cherie J! Those little ones keep you on your feet and so active!!!!
Haha Brandy! It is fun. Soreness and all!
Jumping in a tire a workout? Yeah right! You are not one of those Crossfit nuts are you? ;) Glad to see that you are posting those workouts, maybe it will help me off the couch and back into the gym! HELP!
Where is this gym? I want to join. ;)
Nothing physical today. Even made 13 do the dog walk this afternoon.
I agree with Amy. The gym sounds great. But the workout makes me tired just reading about it.
Today, I walked. A lot. And gardened. More than I want to remember. Tomorrow? Sore, I'm sure. :)
Played bocce - which means you bend over a little bit hahahaha. Unfortunately not any hot bodies there lol.
Nope... nothing physical today... actually, for the whole week, I was pretty inactive!
I have been trying to do some aerobics at home... but now my back is just killing me.
Good luck with all the sporting Melissa!
