I was overwhelmed by the initial interest that my #WODSwap post got with over 40 people interested in the US, and many more from outside! Because of this, I am going to try and offer this up to anyone in the world! HOWEVER.. if you are the only one in your country, there is a […]

Okay, so this is an idea I have been throwing around for a while and thought I may as well jump on it and see how it goes! Sparked by the idea of dropping in at boxes while traveling, and by the awesome connections I’ve made via social networking with Crossfitters, I wanted to find […]

You are only as strong as you think you are. Well, I am only as strong as I think I am. I have been whining about my lack of progress on the back squat for about a year. Last summer, I PRed the lift at 150# (body-weight around 135#) and since then, it has stalled. […]

Happy, happy, Friday!! For those who don’t know, I do finance/accounting as my “real” job, and for those who are in the industry I am sure you can map my blogging schedule based on accounting periods; busy times of the month my social media life is about non-existent and slow times, all of a sudden […]
