Ora et Labora: July 2011
http://crossfitleah.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 25, 2011. An 800 m run? 53x2, 73x2, 93x2, 103x2, 108x2. WOD, partnered with Alvin. 50 front squats 103#. 60 pull ups (scaled down from 12 rope climbs). And I know that's a problem. I need to work on the way I allow myself to think about things that are hard. Honestly, sometimes that is one of the most challenging parts of CrossFit: the realization that I slip quite easily into fear and anxiety, or I begin to waver in my commitment to do what I know I should. Everyone there knows I am a slow ...

Ora et Labora: August 2011
http://crossfitleah.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 3, 2011. Squat Cleans and Burpees. Still working on my 2nd pull and the starting position and tonight it really started to come together a bit more. 5-4-3-2-1 Squat Clean 103#. This was a wonderfully short wod, but each of those last squat cleans was a fight. When you make the mistake of catching one in the power clean position and then have to squat with it, the motivation to catch each and every clean in the squat position sky rockets!

Ora et Labora: January 2012
http://crossfitleah.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 13, 2012. Friday, January 13, 2012. 2 Power Cleans 2 hang cleans. 2 Power snatches 2 hang snatches. Power snatches are still light, but they feel great! AMRAP in 10 minutes. Move odd objects, team wod. 1 round is to move the following from one side of the gym to the middle of the gym. 1 sled with 50#. 2 sand bags 35/25. I was partners with Liz, and we tried several variations of moving our objects. Links to this post. Tuesday, January 10, 2012. Getting back into the swing of things. Diet ...

Ora et Labora: Getting back into the swing of things...
http://crossfitleah.blogspot.com/2012/01/getting-back-into-swing-of-things.html
Tuesday, January 10, 2012. Getting back into the swing of things. Tuesday, January 10. 43x2, 48x2, 53x2, 63x2, 73x2. 5 Thrusters 25# DB. 10 Ball Slams 20#. 20 Sit ups with the ball. I like ball slams, no when it comes to gym movements I love ball slams, so with the low number of thrusters (which I don't like), I was ready and willing to do this wod. I have done a ton of sit ups lately, in wods and for extra fun after class, so I knew those would get tough quickly. They did. 140816 – Strength. Getting bac...

Ora et Labora: October 2010
http://crossfitleah.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 31, 2010. Oh, look I did something over the weekend! When Jason annouced this wod, he saw how quickly I realized that this was 50 burpees. Apparently it was all over my face. It feels super-duper to start round 2 after those burpees and then by round 5 you are agonizing over every single one. Work to a heavy single, with no chance to miss. At 243, I started to noticably slow down, so I decided that was my last attempt before I'd honestly wonder if I would make it back up without a spotter.

Ora et Labora: Working Out in 2012
http://crossfitleah.blogspot.com/2012/01/working-out-in-2012.html
Monday, January 9, 2012. Working Out in 2012. Sunday, January 7th. 7 bench press 43#. 12 set ups (16"). I basically loved this wod. Admittedly I went very light on the BP, but I am just adding those movements again after my shoulder trouble. Light or not, I felt like I was able to work hard this entire wod, moving quickly from one movement to the next. And my shoulder felt great during the wod, after the wod, and still feels great the next day. Monday, January 8th. 1 push press 1 push jerk. Another good ...

Ora et Labora: Bear Crawls are Evil
http://crossfitleah.blogspot.com/2011/10/bear-crawls-are-evil.html
Tuesday, October 4, 2011. Bear Crawls are Evil. I am officially in a grumpy mood because of pain now. I shouldn't have benched at all tonight, but my shoulder felt SOO good. Everything else has been just fine for my shoulder over the last couple of weeks, so I wanted to bench. 2 reps at 103 and I knew I needed to stop. Bleh. My shoulder just hurts a lot right now, and I am not happy with myself. 30 yd bear crawl before each triplet. Pull ups (ring rows). Box jumps (subbed to 16"). 140816 – Strength.
