Hi Christin. Congradulations. You made it! 50, that is.:kicking0:

Yesterday was first session for PT--dx. shoulder impingement. 25 years ago, weight lifting, other shoulder got impinged and had surgery. I was told to expect the other to require the same at some point. Two of my three brothers has the same surgery so I guess there's a bit of genetics here.

Did "Filthy 50" today. Subbed step ups for box jumps and 250 (5to1) single unders. Finished in 42:35. I happened to be doing this at the same time that a certified trainer was present. He let me know that I was shorting the arm extensions on the jumping pull ups. He actually attributed this to the shoulder problem!

Last "Filthy 50" I had scaled to 35's.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

hey all -- thanks for the welcomes!:)

I'm waiting for tomorrow for the 5K -- going to do a week of every other day to let my body recover from the shock yesterday- lol! I thought I'd picked the right scale and drank enuf water but still woke up with a massive headache again - didn't last too long but don't want to push it today.

CF is really cool in that it's not just another "30-day transformation!". Makes it totally sane to start easy cuz it's more like "30 years to CF mastery" -- way more like a dressage or martial arts approach. Get the form and establish discpline and base fitness at "training level" and then work up from there...

Pat - hope your shoulder heals quick!
Bill - congrats on the class - sounds like you're having a blast teaching...

til later, Beck

Correction on today's WOD time - NOT 28.23! The correct time was 20:23. Wow, shaved 8 minutes off my time just by typing the right numbers! :D

Hi Everyone

I'm back. I didn't post but I continued to read the board. Last month I was sick with a bad cold and ischial bursitis. I continued to train but I let up a bit. I was down in Boca Raton for the birth of my seventh grandchild and trained at Crossfit Hardcore for a couple of WOD's. I enjoyed the variety and change of scenery.

Today's WOD

3 rounds
10 DL#135 -30 Step ups-30 KB swings #16KG time 10:30

Looking forward to the board
