CrossFit Foundations – Day 7

Today was day 7 of my CrossFit Foundations class at CrossFit Magnus.  So far I’ve done a number of exhausting exercises.  Today was no different.

The morning workout consisted of reviewing KBSs (Kettle Bell Swings) and K2Es (Knees To Elbows).

Knees To Elbows

These aren’t too bad.  In fact, I’m sure they’re very helpful and fun to do.

The end of the class was learning to do Prowlers.  These suck.  But they work your thighs like crazy, but kill your lungs!

The class kicked my ass, but I’m getting stronger!!!

Starting CrossFit

Jesus Knows Best

Tuesday this week, I listened to Jesus and I started CrossFit at CrossFit Magnus off Belmont here in Portland.

So far I’ve just started by taking the fundamentals class and it hasn’t been terribly difficult.  Sure, I’m a sweaty afterwards and my body feels stronger, so I think it’s working.  The off days I’m quite sore and again, signs that things are going in the right direction.

I decided to jump into CF after talking to a number of friends who are doing it and have had great results.  My big goals are to gain muscle and lose fat.  I’m not terribly worried about losing weight itself.  I just want to replace my fat with muscle and get my body into a sexy shape.

Here’s hoping the next 10 sessions are excellent!

Starting weight: 212lbs

No Results…

Alright, it’s been almost five months since starting this blog, and I haven’t had any significant results.  I’m still sitting around 215lbs and the biggest improvement has been a slight decrease in overall body fat.  I’m sitting just under a percent less than I was.  Not the results I hoped to achieve, but then again, I haven’t been sticking to a plan.  I’ll be healthy for a couple weeks, then it’ll all go down hill over the course of a weekend until I get into the mood I am now where I know I need to do something, but continue to cycle.  I need a change…
