Hello muscles :)

After a full week of eating badly (or not eating at all), of not sleeping, and not working out... I was definitely feeling it. I was restless, fidgety, mildly ADHD... but my body was on strike. 

And now I'm back baby!!! 

Dear muscles, 
You've had a full week to recover since my immune system decided to konk out... but vacay's over :)
Love, 
Me xoxox

First stop... Home away from Home... HappyTree! And what a pleasant surprise... Albert was subbing for Genevieve :) What a great start to my Sunday! After class, my heart was shining to match the big ball of sunshine outside! It was like I never left my mat... I know it's only been a week but it's honestly felt like an eternity. I was itching to get my body moving again! It was awesome!

All in all... an amazing Sunday. Yoga, dim sum with great friends, shopping and dinner with the family. Bliss!

Was frankly a little scared about going back to Crossfit though... especially since I felt a little woozy on my way there. But once I got into the workout... I was on fire!

Today's warmup:
100 singles
40 overhead squats
30 toes-to-bar
20 pushups
5 wall climbs 

Wall climbs are an interesting creature. Start in a pushup position with your feet flat against the wall. Push up and walk your feet up the wall and your hands back towards the wall until you're in a handstand, walk your hands up and walk your feet down until you're back in a push-up position... and repeat. Good times :)

Today's WOD: 1/2 Angie + 1000m row for time
50 pull-ups
50 push-ups
50 sit-ups
50 squats
1000m row

Total time: 14min

I really need to improve my row time... i.e. improve my cardio. 

Overall, I am happy with my time... happy with how I felt throughout the work out. 

Giddy up!
