Started exercising again.

And this time I following the Crossfit program. It focuses on real world power, not strength or how much weight you can sling around.

Todays Workout of the Day(WoD) was:
Three rounds for time of:
50 Pull-ups
185 pound Deadlift, 21 reps

My personal goals however are this:
Three rounds (untimed) of:
5 pullups
20 Tabata squats / box jumps

Reality:
Round one:
2 full pullups, 3 jumped with slow negative
20 Tabata squats

Round two:
1 full pullup, 4 jumped with slow negative
20 18″ box jumps (there was a bench nearby)

Round three:
1 full pullup, 4 jumped with slow negative
20 Tabata squats

Results: My shoulders/arms are killing me and I can hardly walk. It’s Crossfit baby!

    Good luck, and congrats for starting a new program. I have heard of CrossFit before, but you’re the first person I “know” that is actually doing it. Please keep us posted, whether you continue with CrossFit or not.
