One at a time! The only difference between 1 burpee and 100 burpees is two 0's! I can pound them out now! I really am starting to like burpees! Except that I need to fix my form a little bit because I keep banging my knees so I have perma-bruises on them! But I was told today that I had an efficient burpee. Not sure what that means because after 100 of them I still feel like my heart is going to fly out of my throat!!!
I also met Angie this week. For those of you not aware of the Crossfit ladies, allow me to introduce you to Angie:
100 pull ups
100 push ups
100 sit ups
100 squats
By the way - I am no longer allowed to do modified push-ups. At one point I put my knees down and Roberto screamed "Knees up Chrisy!!!"... But without that I never would have known that I can do 100 full push-ups! Love being challenged!
Yeah... 100 of each!!! Got her done in 20:27!!! I have never been so exhausted after a work-out... EVER! And it was only 20 minutes. I stayed lying on the floor for a good 5 minutes before I was able to peel myself up and crawl to the shower.
The next day introduced a whole new level of soreness... literally the only thing on my body that didn't hurt were my earlobes! But I powered through the spinning class last night even though my quads were screaming from the first push! Feeling my muscles scream like that make me feel so ALIVE! It's awesome! But I'm just wondering... at some point does it stop hurting???
This morning's WOD was equally as gruelling... apparently the universe wants me to work my quads!!!
Two rounds of:
50 burpees
50 40lbs thrusters
50 squat tuck jumps
50 sit ups
50 squats
50 double unders
Total time: 29:02
It was haaaaaarrrrrrrrrrddddddd!!!!! And now I'm exhausted!!! But time to pack up my bag for spinning tomorrow! Woooohoooo!!! Hope we get more red dots tomorrow :)
Someone said to me today "I think you're a masochist!"... I think he's right! AND I LOVE IT!
Until the next time... keep smilin' and keep on rockin' the free world!
Giddy up!
I'm starting to see a trend - last post you were asking us to slap you, and this time you are claiming to be a masochist...... ;)
