Boston Sally

UncategorizedBack Squat, Good Morning, HSPU, Sally, Shoulder Press, Snatch BalanceLeave a comment

Well, a day late comes the second half of the Surprises post. We had a special guest return to @CrossFitCanuck on Wednesday night, I looked up and Ms. Kelcie was in visiting from Boston. As always it was great to see her and she was smiling as Coach Z walked her through Warm-up ‘A’. Now we were pretty crispy so...

Surprises (Part 1) and Up-ing My Game

UncategorizedFran, Power Cleans, Running, Snatch, Split JerkLeave a comment

Where is the recovery portion of my life? It was there just the other day, but now I wake up and I’m sore (the good and the bad kind) and I just don’t have the ‘get up and go’. I’m really missing my morning protein and I’m seriously thinking about taking the 1 point penalty and reintroducing Whey a couple...

Find The Bottom of the Squat

UncategorizedB-WOD, DUs, Hatch, Row, WallballsLeave a comment

It may sound like b*tching, but when you get your butt kicked by a WOD (or workout) it is a really rewarding feeling. Well, it is once you get past the hurt. It proves that you did something. That you are making yourself better. After a weekend where I was all over the map (and as a result missed my...

Visiting The Canucks

UncategorizedKettlebell, OHS, Ring Dips, Running2 Comments

If you’re wondering, this post is for Friday, but it’s been a whirlwind. First, the big news, The Little Redhead (one of my original blog followers) made the trip to @CrossFitCanuck to try her first ever Crossfit class. Now some background on @quinnspaz. She is a fitness machine whose normal routine is a heavy dose of spin class and she...

Big Hills and Wabbits

UncategorizedHalf Marathon, RunningLeave a comment

    Wabbits? Yes Wabbits. I woke up this morning with less than zero desire to do anything athletic, but in true Glutton for Punishment fashion, I got up. I was excited because my new running jacket finally came in from Reebok. Actually I had purchased it a month ago in 2XL, got it, tried it and literally heard Jillian’s...

Is That Jack LaLanne’s Younger Brother

UncategorizedGHD, Hang Squat Clean, HSPU, Pull-ups, RunningLeave a comment

1 Arm Rowin’ Wowee! I will say this about my body after I complete long runs, it absolutely and unequivocally hates my guts. You would think that after 8 weeks of running, my legs would have gotten the memo, we have some weight that we have to carry a distance and there is no option for not doing. Now granted...

Not a Fluke

UncategorizedHalf Marathon, Running1 Comment

Last week I completed my longest ever run (pause for dramatic effect), today I bested that mark. Crazy eh? Over the next few weeks as the Scotiabank Waterfront Marathon creeps closer that ‘longest’ ever run will keep increasing. I’m still not in love with running, but I can see why people enjoy it. You can shut your mind down and...

Party of 2

UncategorizedBox Jump, DUs, HSPU, Kettlebell, Shoulder to OverheadLeave a comment

What the heck is going on with the #530Crew? I know some of our regulars are currently pregnant, but I was pretty sure I was going solo tonight. Lucky for me Sharon also made an appearance so it wasn’t a solo effort. I was still a bit crispy from yesterday and at 330p I wasn’t 100% confident I would even...

Goals Reached, Still No Resolutions

UncategorizedKettlebell, Ring Dips, Wall Walks, Wallballs1 Comment

254 days ago (just before January 1st), roughly 2 weeks after I signed up for my membership @CrossFitCanuck, Tavia had us write our goals for 2013 on the white board. Everyone wrote something that was important to them and I was no different. Now as I said, I don’t believe in  resolutions.They are just promises you make once a year...

Can We Still Be Friends?

UncategorizedKnees to Elbow, Power Cleans, Row, Shoulder to OverheadLeave a comment

Welcome to Part II of the bet posts. I do have to say that @JessGrigg did pay up because her Packers failed her and she did it with, well not a smile, but she did do it. I do have to say that she looks fantastic now that she has converted to the winning side. She might even have worn...
