First starting out. I guess my GQ shoots will have to be on hold for while!
Reality is relentlessly impartial, Ability is the key to survival.
Goal (Long):
I don't ever want to tape again for the PRT, that is my main goal. Additionally I want to finish the Okinawa Marathon next year. I really want to be proficient at some crossfit action as well. I think with a little dedication and maybe a kick in the ass now and again I can pull it off!
Only eight more days to go? I think I may make this a new lifestyle. I like it now. The cravings have passed and I can think more clearly, my performance in the Gym has been improving as well. Last night I cooked up some "Cauliflower Pizza" It was delicious! If I...
just an idea, dont use the rings for your abs just hang from the bar as if you were going to do ching ups, keep straight legged and it'll kill your abs, plus on the way back down it will add for a good stretch less strain on the back and shoulders more foccused on your abs
good luck,
Corwin
I definitely think you can do it in a 6 month period. March would definitely be cutting it close, but I'm sure you'll see some huge gains come March anyways.
Its done! lol It was insane seeing that. We did a triple Fran workout a few weeks ago and that nearly killed me. I'm hoping to get a sub 4 min Fran next time around. Its hard to breathe here during the WODs though, cause they burn everything so the air is thick with smoke alot, and of course already the thick humidity.
I am TAD to the BEQ. I have never had it this easy in my life lol. We are always off by 1430 and get a 2 hour "pt" lunch. Its a joke and I love every min of it lol where can I find these "cross-fit" workouts?
Yes I will be. We'll be getting ready for a Halloween party we're going to later this evening. A frog prince.. too cute. I wanted to go to crossfit saturday, but I have an office meeting at 0800. fanfreakingtastic. :p And I have shore patrol saturday night. BUMMER!! You guys better party hard for me since I can't. lol. See you later Mike!
