So a few months ago, a friend of mine from work introduced me to Crossfit. I signed up for a groupon deal and I was hooked. Basically this crazy sport focuses on muscle confusion, each day you exercise a different part of your body through using your own body weight or barbells/kettlebells/etc. It only takes about 20 minutes to do the workout, and you also do stretching and a warmup exercise. It's amazing. After 2 months of this I'm already seeing results physically, and finding myself getting stronger by the week.
Today's WOD
30 medicine ball cleans
(4 rounds)
-3 wall climb
-25 dumbell floor to overhead
-25 kettlebell swings
finish with 800 meter run
Hopefully in a few more months I'll look like these girls. Being strong is such an awesome feeling.
Another one of my favorite things is going to brunch on the weekend. Chris and I have been wanting to try this place called Portage Bay Cafe in South Lake Union, so we finally made it today. It was about a 45 minute wait to get in, but boy was it worth it! Chris and I both got the Ranchers breakfast, eggs, bacon, potatoes, and gluten free french toast. They had a fresh fruit bar with tons of topping options. The price was really good too! We got out of there in under $50 for the two of us including tip and coffee.
I'm also house and dog-sitting for my boss this weekend. My dachshund Lexi has decided to steal all his dogs toys and growl at her when she comes close. She definitely has only-child syndrome. Such a sass!
tired out after all the fighting and sassiness
