CrossFit at 6AM. Turned very cold last night but no significant snow.

Because of the complexity of the result tracking I grabbed two shots of the whiteboard.

Here is the actual WOD.

Spent the 20 minutes before class working on getting up on the rings. After stretching, push ups and lots of tries I got up. Next issue to work on is making sure the elbows are locked out.

Brian scaled the WOD to do 15 good push ups in place of the double unders or single jump ropes. My right heel was really acting up and I knew that extra jumping on it was not going to do anything good.

10 250M rows in a row is a lot regardless of what else you might be doing. I determined that it takes me 39 pulls to get the 250M. As time went on I got that down to 38 and on the last row I was down to 37.

Had a good time in self defense class. Dave was there along with Mark the instructor and we ended up working on sitcks for the entire class.

Still really dispointed that I have to give up sparing, at least for a while because of my hands. So far I don’t have any hand issues with the sitck but of course the potential for a skull fracture goes up with the sticks.

All the movemnts are planed in advance and we are all very careful. Soon we will start working with helments and more protective gear.

Here is a short video to at least give an idea of what I am talking about with stick combat. I am not doing anything like this yet but this is where it could lead.

Eating—On track. I am in full on OCD mode for getting weighed everyday. This works good when you see a loss on most days. If I can just hold on for the rest of the week I am sure to have a good loss for next Monday.

What hurts today—Slept well, did not wake up until the alarm at 5AM. Right heel was really bad this morning. This was different from the ankle, this was pain when standing.

One Year Ago—Did not make it to class one year ago. The snow was too deep to get out of the driveway.

What is a baby boomer?
People born between (and including) 1946 and 1964. After American soldiers returned home from World War II in1946, the United States experienced an explosion of births (hence the name baby boom) that continued for the next 18 years, when the birth rate began to drop. In 1964, baby boomers represented 40% of the population, which means that more than one third of the population was under 19 years of age. In the 1990s, approximately 76 million people in the United States were born in the baby boom years, representing approximately 29% of the country's population. Since baby boomers make up such a sizable portion of the consuming public, their spending habits and lifestyles have a powerful influence on the economy.
