Carissa vs the 70lb stone |
One month down, and two to go in the 90 day challenge. In these first thirty days I have:
- Lost around 10 pounds
- PR'd my stone to shoulder (115lb stone)
- PR'd my axle clean & jerk (125lbs)
- Never had a cheat day, only a couple cheat foods
- Put on pants that haven't fit me in at least 16 months
- Been told I look leaner
- Improved my skin
- Gone out of my comfort zone by signing up for the Tri-state Throwdown
- Tackled the GymNasty specialty class that I didn't think I'd ever try
- Done "real" burpees in a WODNot bad when I list it all out like that! Two more months to conquer the goals I set for myself at the beginning of the challenge. As a reminder/affirmation:
1. Lose 20 pounds ... this one is in progress and starting to look tough. Murph wanted me to go higher, but I balked. My weight has leveled off a bit (apparently as expected) but I know I'm gaining muscle.
2. One banded pullup ... I've been doing lots of ring rows and increasing the difficulty. This has been a goal of mine for almost two years, so I want it bad.
3. Ten consecutive "real" burpees ... I did six in a WOD a few weeks ago, but I still struggle with them. They're slow, but I think I've got this one.How are everyone else's goals coming along?
