KETTLEBELLGUY

I was outside at 4AM digging out the driveway apron from the nice dump the plows put in it. I just keep mounding the snow higher and higher. I will have the biggest snow blower I can get by next year. My days of using a shovel are coming to an end.

Made it to Crossfit at 6A. Kelly, Angie, Eric, Tomas and Dave with Brian coaching. No Jerry today.

Prior to class starting I did my 5 ring dips for Brian to I meet my January goal, even though I needed the assistance of a rubber band to actually perform the movement. Still a big improvement from the first of the month.

I did 100 more box dips for the last day of the challenge bringing my total to 2,280. I won the challenge by having the most done which means I get to pick the 3000 challenge for February. Unfortunately I did not make the 3000 total. There is $20 gas card award for getting to 3000. Trying to come up with what to do for February. I would like it to be Kettlebell related. Perhaps we will do swings.

For our WOD we did “Cindy”. As usual I was exhausted but I think part of the issue was the shoveling I did prior to class and the pain pill I took for my back. I did set a new PR (personal record) of 15 which is not much but a big improvement over when I started.

Previous “Cindy” PR’s”
August 3, 2008 = 10
October 31, 2008 = 14
January 30, 2009 = 15

So, even though progress is slow, I am going in the right direction.
