And I'm Back Again!

As I mentioned earlier, I've been in a funk. On top of that, my last two WODs have not been my best, so I had the added stress of "when am I ever gonna rock a workout again?!" that I tend to feel after I suck. Seriously not fun. The old Rachel would of put off coming back to the box, but I was not trying to procrastinate if I could help it. I wanted to get back in the game, because I would hate to waste all of the effort I've put in this year. I am nowhere near where I want to be, but I can be proud of my consistency and, as of late, my diet.

My last Xfit total was 386 on 1-14-11. My goal today was 420. And...I beat it! Not only that, but I deadlifted 203 lbs. Shain and I were laughing...my first deadlift was 83 lbs, back in February of 2010. :)

So I feel a lot better today. I'm glad I went. I still didn't improve that much on my shoulder press, which is irritating but its where I'm at. My next goal for the Total is 470.

WOD #61
Crossfit Total
429 lbs (44lb PR!)
173 backsquat
53 lb shoulder press
203 lb deadlift

Also: I just looked at my post from the last Crossfit Total and I wrote that my desired goal for the next time I did the WOD was 410. I'm really glad I wrote that, because I bust through it! It feels good to see when I make a goal and am able to beat it.
