Thoughts and Run-Ons

Most of the time as I sit here at work, I'll start thinking about Crossfit, and I get so amped up.  I just want to go home and hit it!  I'll get up and start pacing down the halls, feeling all this energy.  My only hope is I feel this amped come tonight as I attack two metcons. 

....watching this doesn't help. 

Dang it...it feels good getting stronger.  And as I make progressive gains on a daily basis, and compare my work from last week, I know I'm getting better.  I look at these elite athletes and I realize that they are so good because they've been consistently hitting it hard for several years in a row.  If you look at all of these athlete's videos from years past, like Rich in 2011, he's significantly larger than he was then.  It just shows that hard consistent work does pay off.  And I can't wait to see where I'll be 1 year from now!  And I'm only 3 and a half weeks into consistent training!!  48.5 more weeks to go!

CONFIDENCE: I was trying 225lbs squat clean doubles.  I couldn't get the double part to it, really due to mental block.  But 225 SAILED UP really easy.  That number has always been a mental barrier for me.  Hitting that once was always something I was proud of, and sometimes I would miss.  Now I know it's a staple.  And sure, I have more work, but I've taken a step of leaving 225 for good. 

CONFIDENCE: doubles on split jerk with good proper form went to 195#.  Better than last week.
