Last WOD of the year
1 mile run
21 - 15 - 9 dead lifts 135# and shoulder press 45#; 7:50
By the end I was having a hard time holding it together. I was a mess. Little surprised by my time and I did feel like I wanted to puke after but, I did not. I’m petty stoked about that… the guys in the weights area were giving us all sorts of looks, haa. The last thing I need is to make a bigger scene by vomiting.

Try not to say anything behind someone’s back that you couldn’t…

You can’t listen to conventional wisdom about nutrition. Take what the government, doctors, dietitians, nutritionists, magazines, TV, etc. say with a grain of salt. Research things YOURSELF and make truly informed decisions about your diet and health.

Despite being sick, didn’t do to bad at the gym.
1.25 mile run. (I think I was able to do this because I was listening to Slipknot, but maybe thats just me)
Full range bench press. I started all over… with the bar (45#) 10 reps. Then did 65# 2 sets 10 reps and then 75# 10 reps. I think I could go heavier but I wanted to be careful.
Dumb bell curls. 25 pounders 4 sets, 10 reps

Okay so I’ve spent a lot of time on crossfit forums, on here, on twitter and facebook with many people talking a lot about Paleo and calories and fats and other such things. I just thought I would ramble on and give you my take on the whole thing.
First of all, you an get fat on…

New Years Resolutions
New Years has been my favorite holiday since I can remember. Don’t get me wrong, I love Christmas and Thanksgiving, but there is something about New Years. It’s a time to remember all that happened through out the year and is a beginning, so to speak.
A year ago, I made a list of resolutions. One of them was to make 2010 a great year and I sure did. This year was amazing. I plan to do...
stephgetsstrong asked: Hey Lovely!
I've read differing opinions in regards to the inclusion of Cashews on the Paleo plan. I'm personally not ruling them out only because I hate Almonds. I think the main offender of my Larabar was the chocolate. Boooo.
Good luck trying Paleo!

piratenigel asked: Being bored with my current lifting. Crossfit? Do you do this at home or at a box? If at home, what would you say is essential to have?

It happened. I got sick. But it’s not too bad, just annoying. I hate sore throats with a passion. I tried to sweat out whatever it is I have by having a fuzzy blanket underneath me and ontop of me; a sheet, a blanket, and two smaller thicker fuzzy blankets. I think it helped a little. Hopefully this only lasts a day or two.
So, waking up to realizing that I am sick has set up today for not...

Apparently the beer mugs my brother and his fiancee gave us for Christmas were made by them. Well, I mean, they put the letters on. I wish they would have told us that when we opened them… it makes them that much cooler. Long story short, my “C” and “O” fell off when my mom rinsed them off and when she called my brother, he informed her that they had made them and...

Today was just one of those days...
Where nothing seems to go the way you want it to. I woke up feeling good, didn’t have to spend a lot of time waking up and giving myself a pep talk before crawling out of bed and freezing.
Just a few of my favorite parts of today.
I walk out to the kitchen and see the trash has been knocked over by Jack, a weenie dog who enjoys knocking over the trash and then hiding the muffins that were...

Day 28 - Something that you miss.
Some days I miss being a kid. When my biggest stress in life was getting to the swings faster than the other kids. Then I snap back into realty and realize life is pretty wonderful, even with stresss.
I skipped day 27 because I thought it was kind of lame.
