You're not my pal: Or how I learned to stop...
This week I stopped using the website and mobile app MyFitnessPal, there are a variety of reasons for this which I’ll outline here. But first let me say that for many people I am sure that this is a great tool, and for some the principles behind the calculations have led them to lose weight and be more fit. I however am not one of those people. In using the software I have lost weight,...
No Excuses: 1000 Squat Challenge: →
I will do this, just not till after I finish the open wod. Actually the month of March I will be working on my air squat, goal is to get 200 unbroken by the end of the month so who knows I may give this a go a few times.

Birthday WOD Video →
Video of my Birthday WOD at Capital City Crossfit, doesn’t do the workout justice, but here ya go.
sierrafit asked: Thanks for answering my post. One of my close friends is doing it about 75% of the time and she doesn't seem to know exactly what it is about. What does your daily intake look like? Mostly meat? I'm just curious as to what the basic tenets are of the diet, effects you noticed, & struggles to stick with it. Any help would be great! Thank you!

Birthday Dinner
paleo pizza, crust recipe was from Paleodietlifestyle.com pretty good overall, but I think I’ll stay on the hunt for pizza crust recipes that are a little thinner. Until I figure out how to turn a paleo crust into a Chicago Style deep dish this just isn’t the right consistency for me.
I have to say that I earned this pizza today, in addition to it being my last day as a person in...

Mid week running
Nice outside today so the Wod included some running. Great to get into the box on a Wednesday and do a workout, I’ve been putting in overtime at work and getting in a good workout in the morning just makes everything feel better. To follow the WOD up with a taste test of a paleo cake that will make an appearance for my birthday next week and some coffee before having lunch with a good...
auryonblue asked: Hi there! Just wondering what pieces exactly did you use to build those parallettes? I'm practically next door to a Home Depot and would LOVE to build my own! Thx!!!

Gum
For the last two weeks I’ve been chewing gum like crazy, I don’t know why but it seems to be a combo of the extra coffee at work and my talking to people all the time and being self conscious. I think it’s time to cut back, chewed over a pack a day the last few days. On a side note, tomorrow is weigh in day, wonder what I’ll be at after a long week of work and a few extra...
I really want to do this, now to find some people to join me.

Love visitors, and funny customer encounters
that1tallbitch:
^ I went to visit Steve (student teacher from first semester) with Evan at his place of employment: Starbucks. LOLOLOLOL. only in america.
It’s funny now she calls me Steve and that the three of us can just sit and joke around. I love it, and it’s one of the things that I hope to keep going, so if you’re a former student of mine feel free to come in, call...

A win for Friday
Coming in off a couple days outside of the gym I rocked the row today. Best time for 1k at 3:36 was a nice number for me. The death by Burpees that followed was not so fun but I made it through. Post WOD was strength sets, Wendler for Strict Shoulder and Juggernaut for squats. Pictures of my morning.

Crazy, 13 years old, crossfitting, heavy lifting and showing love for bacon.
