Day 1 of CrossFit wore me out! I looked at the workout and thought, "piece of cake." He says, "most people get through the first set and then 2-3 exercises on the second set." I'm thinking, I'm gonna whoop that!
The smart thing would have been for me to look around the gym and notice that everyone, including the people twice my age, were in twice the shape I am. But no, I'm convinced that I can beat them all....forgetting that I'm here to get in shape. Yet, knowing who I am, somehow I find a way to make it a competition.
So, here's the exercises:
20 Push-Ups
200 Meter Run
20 Sit-Ups
200 Meter Run
20 Squats
200 Meter Run
20 Extensions
200 Meter Run
20 Kettle Ball Lifts
200 Meter Run
He says, get as much done as you can in 20 minutes. Sounds pretty simple, right. Uh....no. By the end of squats my legs were jelly. I wanted to run, but my body kept telling me otherwise.
Well, I made it through the first set and got all the way to the 200 meter run after Squats on the second set. So, I'm average. I guess that's better than below average. :)
Can't wait for Day 2.
That is an awesome workout! Is this with body weight or weights? I would love to be able to workout like that.....I would probably puke but would love every minute of it. Keep going the first day is always the hardest. The second is the hardest for soreness (just thought I would throw that in there ;-) ). Colleen
