22nd August......HSPU.....

I have been doing CrossFit in some form for almost 2 years now....it has been a slow process for me - I have been injured and injured again....I focus and I try again....I am learning to be patient, something that I have to re-learn every day, like the HSPUs today. 

---

At the moment I am training by myself with my coach long distance.  He programs and I send videos and notes of the workouts and then I get feedback.  Today was a feedback session.  HSPU's were not up to par at all and needed to be addressed. 

I am learning everything from scratch....at least that is what is feels like......right now.
Today it was HSPU.


10-8-6-4
Started with 
3 abmats (1 abmats and 2 red dots)
got all reps - not unbroken but got all.


2 abmats (1 abmat and one red dot)
got all reps


1 abmat - nothing.......!!!
about 10 tries.....
then another 5.....


floor -  did one negative but did not get up.


I texted my coach and asked how to proceed.
max out on 2 pillows.
got 2 then 3 then 3 


got back on 1 abmat 
tried another 5 times.....
started on my head and got 1 !!!!!
did that 2 more times
so a total of 3 on 1 abmat....PB.

I am amazed at the wonderful people that CrossFit has brought me in contact with....through my old box, the Certs, competitions, visiting other boxes, The Games, coaches.  I have newer been invited to visit someones house that I met in  spinning class....what is that with our Community???

This summer I was adopted by my Coach's whole box, CrossFit Harlem, instant friends that hang out and have fun together.  Is it because we go thru hell together ? Does that create some special bond?  

Spinning is hell....I don't bond with my biker next to me....odd?

Are CrossFitters just more open minded - we tried a lot of things - we were wild enough to try CrossFit once and crazy enough to stay with it?? I don't know - but I am sticking with it.

Peace. Love. CrossFit.
