CrossFit

I made the decision today to put my personal training on hold when my current 12-pack of sessions expire next week. I have been thinking that I don't think I am getting everything out of my sessions that I think I should.

So, I decided that I would look into CrossFit. We have one here in Ormond. I have been listening to Camille talk about her experience with it, great, and now Carmen is also going. I was telling my daughter what I was thinking and my daughter, who is very much into physical fitness and supports me in everything I do said "are you crazy?". Lol. Thanks Mallory, that made me decide that yes, maybe I am so I may as well be the fittest crazy mama I can be.

Steve and I met with Tish, the owner, who is my age and began doing CrossFit 6 years ago. She told me she eats between 2500 - 3000 calories every day! She looks like she doesn't have 1 oz of extra fat on her and she looks great! I have an appt. For a consult with her in two weeks. She told me my ankle concerns her but we can work with it and around it if need be.

So, wish me luck! It really sounds like a great program, costs less than what I am paying my trainer and will get me to my weight/fitness goal. I am also going in to get what I hope is a big girl fill next week. I hope my doc is in an agreeable mood! fingers crossed!

I have heard lots of good stuff about crossfit. My band surgeon swears by it and does it himself. Can't wait to hear what you think of it :)
