Rugby Tournament 2010
FMB Holiday Inn

This weekend was so much fun! Tim and I really needed a break from stress, and we got it!

We are going to start networking and possibly playing a little rugby when we can.

Thank you so much Crossboxx for the opportunity to test out your bumper plates! We are so excited to be able to max out & drop weight! Guys, check out their website.... http://www.crossboxx.com

We are thrilled to be partnering up with you guys for the equipment in the new box!

Took the little monkey to ride the horses today. He absolutely loves it! Such a cowboy in training:) Cant wait until he's 6 so we can start barrel racing lessons!

This is Grant giving the big boy Sarge a bath.

My days continue to be extremely busy, tomorrow is going to be the same. I am really looking foreword to going down to the beach on Saturday with my hunny for the rugby tournaments....it will be a blast I'm sure. Beach + Beer+ Good friends...How couldn't it be?!

WOD

50-40-30-20-10

Single jump ropes

sit ups

push ups

16:46

*felt strong, I would have to say the push ups sucked the most.

Today was a strength rest day.

I feel so tiered today and I'm not sure why, possibly the reduction in my sugar intake...

Then I did an hour on the treadmill, kept the heart rate at 118.

Food:

9- 4 egg whites/12 asp/5 mas nuts (2-1-5)

11- 3 oz chick/9 almonds (3-0-3)

2- 3 oz chick/12asp/2 tsp AB (3-1-4)

6- 3 oz chick/sm sweet pot (post WOD)/2 tsp AB (3-2-4)

-protein shake (24g)

8- 4 egg whites (2-0-0)

Total -the prot shake= 14-4-16

Still shabby on the carbs, but that's ok for now. I will start back eating more when the shoot is over.

Really craving sweets today, hence the reason for all the AB...naughty, naughty.

Feelin' Good

The Wonder Woman T-shirt is just for you Lawrence!!!

Today was productive, me likey.

I used to shop ALL THE TIME for cloths. Either 'every day' cloths or 'going out' stuff.......so funny bc now all i do is look for sweet workout gear that matches!!!!!

Strength:

1x20 bench @ 90lbs

1x20 squat clean @ 65lbs

WOD:

10 rounds for time of:

3 snatch pull @ 80lbs.

6 ring dips

9 KTE

Had to sub the ring dips for bench dips, and the KTE for backwards sit ups. GRRR I CANT WAIT FOR OUR BOX!!!!

Time was: 6:40

Then HSPU practice.....gettin better! I only need about 2 in. to get up, much improved!

GRUB:

8- 4 egg whites/6 asp & 5 straw b/1 tbsp EVOO (2-1-3)

10- 3 oz chicken/2c coulif & 1/2 apple/9 almonds (3-1.5-3)

1- 3 oz chicken/12 asp/ 2 tsp AB (3-1-4)

3- 3 oz chicken/ 1 tsp walnuts (3-0-2)

6- 3 oz chicken/ 1 tsp AB (3-0-2)

grand total: 14-3.5-14

Not too shabby. I need to add more veggies and less fat.

Someone once said that you had to "gain weight" to be stronger. This is true to a degree. Gaining FAT is not going to make you stronger. Yes, Yes there's the 'weight moves mass' topic. Thing is, Ive lost 20 lbs since I started crossfitting 5 months ago and I am WAY stronger now. Don't be fooled, you don't need to pack on the fat to lift more ;)

Random note to self: STOP BUYING KIDS CLOTHS THAT HAVE TO BE IRONED!

AND WHAT THE HECKMY PAGE POSTING IS SKREWED UP! UGH OH WELL!

Playdate Day!

I love our play date days. They are great, not only for me but for the kids too.

Tomorrow we are riding the horses...Grant loves this.....

I cant even believe my baby girl is 9 months.....is it sick that I have baby fever already? I see pregnant women and I cant help but stare.....Its such a precious and special time.

Food was good today but the shoot is fast approaching and its time to cut out fruit. I'm at 18% and I need to drop back down to 14%.

Tomorrow is my first bootcamp with all my girls! Excited!

Why am I so busy all the time?

For some reason I thought quitting my 70 hr a week job and becoming a stay home mom would bring me all kinds of free time....yah right.


Yesterday's CF TOTAL 1 went really well & I am very pleased with my progress. On the down side I'm a little pissed bc I'm not really even sore today.Which means yesterday could have been heavier :( BUT I thought upping my DL by 5, back squat by 10, & press by 20 would be enough...grr. The DL didn't really feel heavy, I really need to stop underestimating myself.

Today has been slam packed & Ive been up since 5.....so going to the gym didn't happen. I made up my own CFE:

bike 1 mile
run 400m
bike 1 mile
run 400m
bike 1 mile
run 400m

This one was narsty. Esp. in the 3pm heat....

I was going to do 5 rounds but of course time was an issue. It was a nice little endurance WOD. I'm really trying to lean out big time for this shoot.

Well I'm off, my wonderful husband is taking me out on a date tonight. Sushi here I come!
