Champlain Valley CrossFit: Friday, June 4th, 2010

Good time today. Beautiful, warm weather, and the park was nice and quiet this evening, instead of being completely mobbed with people. Brought out a bunch of jump ropes for people to do some skill work. Continued mixing up the workouts, brought in bear crawls today, which I was surprised to see how difficult they ended up being with the combination of exercises we were doing. Had a solid group, some 10 people showed up. Getting a good consistent crew and then a few different people every time. Thanks to everyone who came out. Cheers. – CVCF

Champlain Valley CrossFit: Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

Had a solid workout at the park today. Had a good group show up, and we mixed things up a bit. Did some work doing some seated box jumps, and then a short met-con with a similar scheme to “Kalsu.” Everyone worked hard and performed great. Weather looks like it will be good for Friday, we will be out at 5:30. Going to try and pick-up some jump ropes so we can work single and double-unders. Cheers.

Champlain Valley CrossFit: Thursday, May 27th, 2010

Solid eating again yesterday, so 3 solid days following my eating guidelines. My body is hurting again today, I feel tired and beat up. I’m often stubborn with my training, not following my own advice of rest when I’m hurt, but I’m going to have to throw in the towel for a little while. I’m going to stop training until June 7th, and see how I feel. I’m still going to get out on the mountain bike as my body always feel better after riding, both knees and back, but nothing CrossFit related. Hopefully the time off will help me get back to where I was. Going to focus on stretching and foam rolling a bunch over the next week or so. Looking forward to being out in the park tomorrow for a group workout. Cheers. – Jade

Sore this morning. Back, chest, and shoulders are all feeling pretty worked. Knees are hurting as is my lower back. Going to take the day off from training. Got out to the park this evening for a group workout. Had a great turnout, 12 people came out. Worked some strength stuff via HSPU’s and then did a bodyweight AMRAP. Introduced people to deck squat burpees which are certainly and interesting move. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, worked hard, and I’m sure loved the cool 90 degree temperature. We will be back at Dorest Park again at 5:30 on Friday. Cheers. – Jade
