June 23, 2009


5 rounds for time:
60 seconds max rep wall balls
60 seconds max rep box jumps
30 seconds rest
5050- 70-70-70
What's your number one excuse (or at least the most creative one you have) for not making it to the gym when you miss? My number one is usually that I'm tired. Boring, but often true. I am not creative (unless we're talking creating torturous workouts), so I won't even bother trying to make something up...though it probably would involve in some way blaming the baby. Another personal favorite is "Well, I've already eaten a Hershey bar today, so I may as well not work out and go home and watch reruns of CSI." Totally counterintuitive, and not the advice I would give anyone, but alas, these are the demons I battle in my head... you guys?

I'm pretty regular (Metamucil anyone?) because there's a voice in my head that calls me names if I don't go in ("Thou ponce! Thou jackanapes, rapscallion and ne'erdowell! Giv'st the lie in thy heart?" -- granted, it's the voice of a 17th century fop, but it's still quite annoying). I wouldn't say I feel guilty, but I do feel disappointed if I don't go in, which is a pretty consistent motivator.

But the No. 1 excuse for me is (and I'm not counting legitimate excuses, like "work"): it's late, and I wish I had gone in earlier in the day.

70 done (because Wendy's effort made me feel guilty - Go Wendy!)

Amazingly all caught up. This is liking having a second cross fit workout each day, only at a much slower pace! On a family vacation in Palm Springs this week--doing them in the hotel room. They just might have a cross fit gym out here....

Jeff said...

HAA!! Well I am FINALLY at a point (where I have not been in years) where I get really bent when I miss a scheduled or intended day and feel guilty as well as angry, depending on the circumstances on which I failed to show up.

But when I just cant seem to make it....UH,,,I CAN'T,,UM,,I HAVE TO WASH MY GOLD FISH.

"That time of the month", enough said.

It's amazing when you get to that point, isn't it Jeff? I've been really moody lately and I realized this weekend it's probably partially due to the fact that I don't have my usual stress reliever-- Crossfit!

Legitimate Excuses:
- working late
- texas chainsaw massacre cramps (even after taking drugs)
- crippled from prior wod

The Others:
- grouchy
- sad
- tired

When I make it to the gym after having considered not going, I end up feeling better than when I started. Funny how that works. :-)
