**warm up and rounds 2-6 twice.

Now I see why you get up so early Deanie. I am a teacher as well. I just started tracking them yesterday with prevention.com/healthtrackers. I was appalled. I am now subscribing to the mantra " Bite it-Write it!" You can even track your mood.
I did 215 swings this morning and 10 TGU's. If my dentist appointment goes well, I will do Providence this evening.
Jane- 52 years marriage is remarkable. How was the celebration? Did you eat cake?
Waves to Vilma, Andilynn, Marcy, and Gayle.
Good morning!
Deanie - Nice job with Providence! Were you able to do the overhead squats with 30#? That's amazing!
Farmer - I also use Fitday from time to time for a reality check. Food logging can be a useful tool.
Last night's deadlifts went very well. I topped out at 175lb for my short set and it felt good...no back ache or anything today...my back isn't even sore. A little history...last summer/fall I started deadlifting really heavy and was basically going for a PR in every workout (BAD MOVE!! TOO HEAVY, TOO FAST!!). I topped out at 195, but also pulled a glute muscle. So this time I'm following a "slow and steady" program which seems to be working. Stuff that felt heavy at first is going up very nicely now. My goal is to be able to pull a consistent 210lb.
I'm still working on tonight's workout...Mtn Athlete posted a pretty nice grind yesterday, but I'm gonna check out NJ CrossFit's site, too. Decisions, decisions...
Waves hello to Jane, Marcy, Andilynn and all who post later.

Good Morning Ladies!
I did Advanced Step Challenge 3 this morning (warmup, 3 combos and c/d and stretch). Great workout! Complex but able to get most on the first try. Then I did 7 TGUs on each side with 25#.
Farmer - I hope your dentist appointment goes well so you can do Providence. I track my eating all the time. It works. Great job on the swings and TGUs!
Deanie - Thanks for the heads up about just doing the jogs on Thursday (although it still says you can swap out active rests). 50 wasn't too bad but I felt like I was about to lose count a couple of times. Great workout! I hope you're not sore tomorrow. I bet it felt great to do Providence again after all this time.
Gayle - Great job on the deadlifts! I am also in awe of you!
Have a great day! Waves to Jane, Andilynn, Vilma and all who follow!
