10.13.10 - Burpees, Box Jumps, Weighted Situps, Double Unders

247.6

Metcon:
2 Rounds of
20 Burpees
30 Box Jumps
40 Weighted Situps
30 Double Unders
20 Burpees
Rest 1:30

This workout was a total mess. I really couldn't do it at all so I'm not going to put my result up there. Double Unders were the worst. On the second round, I had to just do single skips because I couldn't get a rhythm. Overall, I felt weak and got completely exhausted, almost like I've never done CrossFit before. I think I've actually gained back a few pounds, which means the weight listed above is more than just fluctuation. I need to get off the sugar and start dropping weight again.

Food:
Triple Americano
Salad

10.7.10 - Rest Day

246.4

Rest Day - feeling pretty sore after working out for 2 days following 10 days off. Plan right now is to take today off, then work out Friday and Saturday (or Sunday), and Monday, and then take Tuesday off. Then, next week I'll work out Wed, Thursday, Friday and take Saturday off. That's the plan, subject to change of course.

I really, really need to get back on the diet. I haven't dropped a single pound in over 3 months now, which is getting ridiculous.
