Weekly Workout Recap
Tuesday, July 12, 2016
July is here and I can't believe the year is already half way over! It really lit a fire under my ass to look at the goals I set in January and see how I was tracking. The first thing I knew I wasn't working on enough is my handstand. I've been trying to get a solid freestanding handstand for years now! I promised myself 2016 would be the year but I haven't been dedicating the time it takes. That has now moved back into my focus and I asked my Coach(yes, I'm a trainer with a trainer) to add some drills to my routine. Handstand here I come!
The most exciting workout I had last week was my Max 1 Rep Deadlift for Charity! On Saturday all the Coaches of CrossFit Central lifted their max weight to raise money for The Flatwater Foundation. This is an Austin based foundation that CrossFit Central is proud to support!
MISSION: The Flatwater Foundation is dedicated to providing those diagnosed with cancer, their families and loved ones access to mental health therapy and family support. This includes access to both traditional and non-traditional methods of psychological counseling.
I ended up lifting 255#! I should be proud as this is 15 more pounds than my previous PR but I can't help but feel like I should be lifting more! But day by day, workout by workout I'm getting stronger so I just have to be patient. When I get to 300# I'll be excited!

Tuesday:I was sore AF!! What the heck!? My lats/biceps were SO sore...so I took the day off and just rolled out and recovered. I didn't expect to be so sore but I haven't done a lot of volume lately so I guess the 50 pull ups got me.
