Okay, the title is a little harsh I know, but we all somehow make fun of ourselves in order to motivate ourselves. I by no means make fun of "weight challenged" people...unless they are gluttons. The Puddle you see is my sweat puddle after today's ass kickin' from a totally ass kickin' workout.
I woke up today feeling great and knew I had to jump back in full force. So what do I start my day off with? Of course a near death experience at Rogue Fitness!
A little CrossFit action first thing in the morning (my morning) really gets the blood flowing for the rest of my day. AWESOME!
Below is a picture of me after the workout. I was hurtin bad during that final set of Push Press. My body was screaming for me to stop. I just had to ignore the signals that my body was about to shut down and just suck it up. If I was going to die, then I was going to die during a killer workout. That's all there was to it.
You have no idea how bad I wanted "J", our instructor, to come over and start screaming at me like a Drill Sergeant after someone had wizzed in his cornflakes.
My only motivation to continue was knowing that just one more rep, I would be closer to being done and closer to being able to fall to the floor and allow the blood to rush back to my vital organs.
Warm up: 1 mile run
Skill: Push Press: 3x3 maxed out at 135lbs. (Shoulder felt great)
WOD:

My time: 24:06
I'll take it. I need to get back in the gym and suck it up and get better and prepare for up coming events. I added the little evil face. Someone put a happy face up there and I changed it. Well deserved in my book.
Nice puddle, way to get your sweat on.
