Happy Hump Day, beauties 🙂
I thought this rainy gross rest day might just be the perfect time to update y’all on this whole process that is healing through CrossFit. It’s pretty cool stuff. Wanna hear what I’ve been up to?
Well good. Because even if you didn’t, I don’t know if you heard but I do CrossFit, which means that I have to tell you about it even when you’ve begged me not to.
CrossFit Rule #1: ALWAYS TALK ABOUT CROSSFIT.
Obvi….
So anyways… being three weeks into April must mean that there’s been some pretty killer WOD’s and some pretty awesome #gainz being made. You (clap) are (clap) right!!!! (clap)
Not only have the last few weeks brought some spicy sessions on the bod but they’ve also included a few badass partner WOD’s that are slowly starting to work their way to the top of the Mimi’s Favorite Things list.
JEEZ GET TO THE GOOD STUFF ALREADY WON’T YOU?!
Along with The BarbellWOD work that I get after Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays, I am also into my third week of the Hatch Squat Cycle… Am I noticing squat gains yet?
Let’s just say I can hardly wait for the next 7 weeks to retest my maxes as I’m sure they are going to be huge.
And without further a due… this is the other fun stuff I’ve been doing to get all sweaty and what not 😉
