WODing it up with no time!

Haaaay! I've had kind of a busy week.  Its been tough to start my 4 week challenge with.  I started out well... cooking for myself and busting my ass at the box, but the busiest part of the week always catches up to me.  I know I should try to cook as much as I can but when I say I'm never home... I'm truly NEVER home.  That been an issue with trying to lead a paleo lifestyle.  Unlike most I have a job which usually starts around 11am and I don't get home most of the time til after 9.  Its tough just trying to get to a supermarket and even harder to get 8 hours of sleep.  Our challenge also includes trying not to watch as much TV and trying not to be on the computer soo much.  TV isn't a problem for me since I don't even have time to watch anything nor does anything really interest me.  Seriously though, I need my Internet time.... I've gotten so used to having the world at my fingertips that I don't hesitate to use it and often.  I will come home and check facebook which is how some people try to contact me through my job, and I like to keep up with the news and sports that way (as well as my challenge group) since i don't really watch TV.  Of course I try to have fun with it as post silly things to make my friends laugh so it really is a tool to unwind for me.  I also like to read blogs about things I'm into at the moment typically hair stuff, crossfit, and paleo eating.  Celebrity blogs used to be a guilty pleasure but I cut that out.  Either way I'm finding my challenge this time a lil more difficult with having enough food to eat.

I'm supposed to be trying to make my own meals but I was off today and was only home for a total of 2.5 hours from when I woke up til now.  I ran out of food soo I had to go to the store but that wasn't til late.  When I was home I showered, did some laundry, cleaned up my house.... later showered again(after my game) more laundry, and now I'm home again fed my cats put my food away and did more dishes.  I sat down to facetime my nephew and now I'm spent.  If i wasn't home I was running around... because my days off are split so relaxing is not really an option.  I did get to go play ball today though and it was a good game even though we lost.  My brother came out and played with us today which was awesome cuz hes good and hes a lefty.  I felt confident with him out there and he did make some great diving catches.  He should be good he did have me as an older sister! haha!  We always practiced together as kids our father would take us and shoot balls from the plate at us in the field with a pitching machine.  My dad knew that I was always going to be an infielder because i was always quick with my head totally in the game especially with having no fear of the ball.  So he shot bouncing line drives at me for years as a kid.  I'm still til this day an infielder and I still love to play.

This whole week I was able to WOD Mon-Thur early morning too.  I was trying to beat the heat but I realized waking up that early cuts into my sleep and makes it a little harder with trying to get home cook and get to work.  I even got up to WOD at 730 when I had a phils 1pm game which I spent the day at then went to practice later.  Somehow I cooked all my own food that day and ate like a saint, but summer shandys were a must and this game was planned from Feb when I took off for it so I enjoyed myself.   I had a good week at the gym, I didn't really make any significant PRs with lifting but my metcons were fast and felt good.  LOVING the romaleos!  They felt sooo good and gave me some extra stability, definitely a difference.  I'm not putting all my wods and times up cuz I don't feel like sitting on the computer sorry lol.  I definitely had a great crossfit week though and its probably from eating like a cavewoman.

 ughhhhh!  Then i was cooking at 1030 while trying to do some laundry and making lunch for Friday and taking a shower going to bed at 12pm not good.  I live a non-stop life... I'm always going somewhere or having to do something... but I'm never bored lol.
So I had a game Thursday night with the gals and played 3rd.  LOVED IT.  It was nice to not play short for once and take all the shitty hops and the pressure when everyone gets mad.  I was having fun running like crazy for foul balls.  Rob had family come in for the night so I had to run as soon as I was done to see them and then it was 9 and I hadn't eaten and there was no decent food either so I waited til i got home.

Friday I had to get up early for work and it was a monsoon.  I got to work late from traffic ughh!  So already behind from when I walked in, but all I wanted to do was make sure I got to eat something at some point.  I made sauteed zucchini and spinach with tomato sauce and poured it over grass fed ground beef i had made the night before.  SOOOOO GOOD... even if i only had enough time to heat some of it.  Reason being for forcing food in between clients was because I was leaving work and going straight to Dark Sparrow Tattoo to get my old shitty foot tattoo covered up.  Its awful that I walked around with it for so long while people would have to ask what it was.  When I had it done back around 2002 I just remember I didn't like it then but it hurt soo bad that I didn't even care what it looked like.  I decided to start a sleeve and I cant do it with this horrible travesty of ink on the top of my foot.  So i decided to cover this mess up first.

before and after

It hurt like a bitch... like a BITCH.  I was crawling out of my skin for 3 hours.  Lots of shading and dragging on the bone.   I'm just glad its over and I love it!!!  Sooo detailed and pretty I don't even know what it is but its beautiful!  My guy Alex is the man... he was soo funny and entertaining.  As always my amazing friend Karen also made the night easier to deal with.  Karen started playing crazy music over the whole studio and it definitely helped ease the pain.  At one point we were all jamming to Toto's Africa! YES!!!  We didn't leave til 10pm and I had to still go get dial soap and there was no food in my house so the closest thing to home (the wick) made me a burger on lettuce and I didn't even get a beer. I just wanted to go home and get my foot up and SLEEP the pain away.

After barely sleeping I had a great breakfast in the car on the way to work from Panera Breads hidden menu which I just learned about.... why after working next door for 6 years did I just learn about this!  I had a steak, 2 eggs, tomatoes, and avocado bowl!! YESS AMAZING!!!  Everything was organic although the steak was great I'm not sure it was grassfed, but at the time all I was worried about was my humongous swollen foot which didn't fit in any of my shoes!!!! It was killing me... so ill take that togo breakfast and eat it at every red light and not feel guilty about it.  Later after not eating all day and my foot hurting worse and even more swollen, I was starving and met my boyfriend at a new gourmet burger place close to home.  I got sweet potato fries and an amazing burger as well as 2 angry orchard beers.  It was a sad moment to cheat but I forgot to special order my burger and I really was in some pain so I had the beers but at least they were gluten free and you know what... it made me feel soo much better.  I swear the beers helped me relax and my foot wasn't throbbing as bad.  Whatever... day blown... and then we sat around all night and watched TV and relaxed to make it even worse but I had to rest.  Whatever... Sunday is a new day and I behaved all day.  As well as ran around and played ball with no beers after like normal.  I'm not making excuses but I was in pain and had a moment of weakness... anything to feel better. PS today my tattoo isn't as swollen and didn't even bother me playing ball.  Oh and my new bat came in... its ok I'm not sure I like it or not I guess I have to just get used to it. They sent me a B2.0 ehh... I'm not impressed but everyone else liked it. Til next time.... give me strength!

the last hurrah.. pre-challenge weekend

Hey everyone! I hope you guys were alot cooler than me! Works been crazy awesome but exhausting at the same time. Ill bet that has something to do with me eating like shit to get all my snacks and beer in before the 4 week challenge.  I'm actually very excited for this paleo challenge.  Paleo has worked well for me and my body loved it.  I started to stray off with life getting so busy which is a poor excuse.  The hardest thing about paleo is just having all the food and having it easily accessible.  I'm going to try to be as strict as possible.  Sooo we went out for dinner 5 nights straight including out to breakfast twice. What can I say it's a very busy time of year for us and we make plans for every night, especially on the weekend. Playing softball twice a week always ends with beer and its a great time. I'm truly going to struggle most with not having a few beers here and there. It's pretty much how I relax with my boyfriend friends and family. I don't get drunk but it's refreshing this time of year and it def helps me relax.

We ate at one of my favorite restaurants last night, La Esperanza, and had some beers. It was AWESOME! Later I went and talked to my tattoo guy about covering up my terrible foot tattoo that I've been hating for over 10 years. It's soo bad I've had to tell people what it is when they ask, and it's soo bad people actually had to ask. I'm thrilled and can't wait for it to be done Friday.

Pancake fries... soo good but soo bad

Sunday morning we went to the pop shop for a glutinous breakfast. They actually had PANCAKE FRIES ...ridiculous and u know we got them! They were sooo good with cinnamon cream cheese dip... But it was at that time I realized all this last hurrah food was absolutely making me sick. I felt awful and even worse I was sooo sluggish. I felt lazy and didn't even want to play softball. The heat isn't helping but I swear its from eating soo shitty. I needed to get this out of my system but then it caught up to me and I had no desire to eat anything all day after that massive breakfast which I could barely finish.  In fact after softball Rob wanted to go around the corner to crapplebees and all I got was a margarita.  I had no appetite what so ever and still don't.  I think I was poisoned with terrible fake food, lots of dairy and grease.  At least now I know that I don't want any of that crap and even after 4 weeks all I'll remember is how sick and gross I felt.  I cant wait to start my 4 weeks of clean paleo eating!  I cant wait for my face to not look all gross and broken out!  My body definitely craving a change.

Anyway we won our game and I realized both games were very dull and quiet.  I think its this crazy heat we've been having.  I love to play the game... but I'm a very emotional player... you could say?  I get into it and I don't hesitate to open my mouth back at the other team... especially with the coed team.  When someone has something to say or something is wrong (as in bad sportsmanship) I'm the first one to open my big mouth.  Its going to get me in trouble one day but I'm not afraid of dumb people and I'm going to stick up for my team.  Either way it was very quiet and no one was carrying on.  We won and just walked off the field like nothing happened.  I'm dying to get my new bat in... hopefully it will come this week.  I'm not hitting as good as I was with my bat... so hopefully this one will be a good replacement.  I just cant wait for Monday... new way of eating and I get back to crossfit.  Here's to a tough WOD to start off this challenge right... I cant wait to see whats waiting for me in the box tomorrow!

RX, sweat, and Personal records baby!

Soo I basically started my week off at 730am when my bud Alex (coach) says to me... why are you here so early?  Everyone kinda knows I'm not an early bird... especially because my work schedule doesn't usually start til 11am.  To be fair... i also work til 9pm when everyone else has had dinner and is already half asleep so whateve.  I decided last week, after taking the late morning class that I was still all red and sweaty by the time i was clocking in and ready for my first client, that that's not ok.  I needed to start going earlier... and you know what I actually like it.  Unfortunately this also made me more tired by the time I was done work I just wanted to go to bed and not eat but thats not ok either... I need to find a happy medium.  I cant get anything done when I work til 9 and cant get anything done before work because things aren't open.  I'll figure it out.. I'm just putting my passion first and that is training in crossfit.  Its soo good for me and I adore it, as well as all of the amazing people who I've come into contact with... and yes i love you all.  We are about to start a 4 week healthy challenge based on diet and rest and basically taking exceptional care of your body.  Its based on the paleo lifestyle which i definitely know about... i just still consider myself a rookie.  I'm still a crossfit rookie when it comes down to it.  I'm waiting for that day when I don't feel like going... I'm going on 9 months now and that has yet to happen... or even come close.  Its almost as if I'm going to play something ...a fun game of some sort, its hard to explain but we all know.

So anyway... I wanted to go hard this week since I felt like going early was going to be tough for me i wanted it to be worth it.  I was able to RX this all the WODs i did this week!!!!! YES!!! That's all I really try for everyday I train.  Clicking that lil RX button means everything to me... I feel like I can do it without being babied... although theres still alot of things I cant do RX, 3 days in a row made me feel  amazing! Tues there was no lift but I stayed after class with Alex and did the competition work so i felt better doing some clean and jerks after, and because I was there so early I had the extra time!  We did the Fight Gone Badish benchmark metcon.  YESS!!! I love doing benchmarks.. its good to try to beat your own time!

Wed I woke up saw that it was squat day and I wanted to beat my 1 rep max of 250lb.  I was determined.  My bud Rach was there and that made it soo much better.  I did the hatch squat program which required you to do your 1 rep max and when I got there I just did the required 3 reps.  I was soo excited it felt like xmas morning with a PR!!!  I think I love to squat.  I love doing alot of lifting but squats and deadlifts might be my thing.  The metcon consisted of front squats and push presses and bar hop burpees(which are the devil) and I did better than I thought.  The RX weight was 75lbs so I was good with that but it got heavy fast.  I cooled off and got ready for work only to realize it was one of my buddy's last day at our shop.  Shanely has been a huge part of our store and has really gotten to know our clients well.  I'm going to miss her soo much.

Today I decided to sleep in since I was falling asleep while trying to eat dinner late after 9pm.  I now know that I def hate watching Kelly and Michael and wont be wasting my time with that anymore.  Shes become soo annoying and its ashamed because I love him, hes been a great co-host.  I realized today I cant stand to watch her anymore.  I kept thinking that I shouldve been at the 9am WOD.  There were some errands I needed to run today and since places didn't open til 10ish I would go before my 12 class and get everything done... well that didn't work because I forgot a few errands and I went to see Dr Nelson about and hr early because I had the wrong time lol.

Anyway it was sooo hot.... duh like that's all we talked about all day ...but my car was saying 94 and it felt worse in the box.  Our strength for the day was power cleans ...which I love and I wanted a PR.  We started and I was all sweaty before I even got weight on the bar.  I managed to get up to 145lbs for a PR!!  I failed the first time and gave it a few min and then I got it!  We were doing cleans in the metcon too so it was a gonna be a good day.  This was another benchmark that i haven't done yet so I wanted to set the bar high for myself.  I felt like I did well since i couldn't breath and didn't feel weak til the last set.  My lungs held me back but I felt good about my score... I was moving as fast as I could thank god for that starbucks lol.

We were soaked... but it felt good almost like a detox/sauna.  I got home and realized I had an email from Rogue about the Nike Romaleos finally coming in!  I have been waiting for these weightlifting shoes to come in now for at least 6 weeks.  My feet are tiny so I have a hard time finding a small mens size but these things are badass.  I cant wait to see how they help me with lifting.

I couldn't wait for my softball game tonight with the women's league.  These girls are the best.  We play well together, have fun, make fun of each other, and best of all we win ....ALOT.  So it was probably our biggest game before playoffs and we won, we played well tonight too.  I feel awful tho I hit one of my teammates with a line drive.... like a hard line drive.  Shes tough though trust me if I asked her if she was ok one more time she prob would've threw me in a headlock.  Robbie came with me we had a few beers and got food at the bar... ya know getting all the bad food and beer in before my 4 week challenge.  I need a challenge since I realized how great paleo is for me Ive really slacked, like BAD.  Its not that I want to eat that way but Ive had no time to prepare food or even get to the store.  Besides that its been a crazy time of year for me not only at work but everywhere else too.  This challenge will make me stop making excuses and get serious about this by being held accountable.  That's sad that I need it but maybe after 4 weeks it will come natural to me again. We shall see! this is going to be interesting!

Sweating my a$$ off!

Hey hey HAY! Ok so I guess I'm going to start with what a great but fast week its been.  I don't know how but its already Memorial Day weekend! This week flew by I can only hope the weekend slows down and I get to enjoy it.

So I'm having some great pain in my arms, which is showing that all the right muscles are working and no pain in the shoulder!  This is great.  There was a great WOD on Tues which was push up torture (i loved it) on the arms, and bench pressing for 8 reps which is the most I've done.

Wed I woke up in the early AM to WOD and couldn't even roll myself over to hit the alarm clock.  Haha it was tough to get out of bed, ya know later after I realized I was too sore to workout, but I finally got my coffee and stretched then realized I had soo much upper body/arm pain that work was going to be tough.  Thank god when we cut hair we have our elbows low because it was going to be a T-REX kind of day lol!  All was well until I tried to undress myself to shower hahaha, it was soo pathetic trying to get out of my shirt, I think may have bruises from something in the bathroom.  Getting dressed again was also quite a sight.  The pain was great though, like I def pushed myself well past the comfort zone.  I definitely needed a rest day.

Today I woke up stretched out, still pretty sore, but when I saw it was squat day I knew I would be ok to WOD.  We did "jackie" today for the conditioning part of the WOD.  It was soo awful to look at but once we got warmed up it wasn't soo bad.  I think I was psyching myself out about trying to do 50 thrusters after just doing them Monday for the first time with no pain.  Also the last time I rowed (which is another one of my favs) I had to stop after just starting because my shoulder.  Seriously though... no shoulder pain!  I swear Dr Nelson is the man!!

Softball was rained out tonight soo Robbie took me out for dinner and a drink.  I tried the Three Olives Monroe with club... pretty good but I would rather have my goose.  This woman came in sat right in front of me at the bar and I couldn't stop staring at her! She had to be 80lbs and in this long maxi dress with bracelets that looked like orange tires around those boney lil wrists.  She looked very arrogant and mean too. The top of her arms were as thick as my wrists. I wanted to send her a burger and then put her up top for an overhead squat. Then I kept thinking ..I could def overhead squat her I know it.  Is something wrong with me.. I just found her to be weak and it made me sad.  I don't ever want to look like that poor woman, I want to be fit and tight with muscles not bones.   Let me tell u though she thought her shit didn't stink. It feels good to have some meat and I never felt this great before. I'm proud of who I'm becoming because even tho I'm sore and I complain (alot) I still get up and do it again and again. I even doubt myself all the time be cause I'm having pain or whatever it is this week but then once I stretch, warm up, and get a pep talk from my coach I feel ready to kick ass.

This weekend is going to consist of lots of bad food, snacks and seasonal bbq goodies, and beer I'm sure.  I plan to get all of my cravings out of my system this weekend as I joined a 4 week healthy eating challenge with my friends from the box.  Sunday my friends and I are planning on having a softball game of some sort and a party after.  The details are still being worked out but I have Sunday and Monday off soo I'm looking forward to relaxing and running around like a 10yr old.  I LOVE when I have 2 days off in a row, it somehow feels like 4 days off.  Work is soo busy.  I would love to change my schedule around a lil and having sun mon thur off again and work extra long days but that kind of hurt my body, ya know with no breaks or nourishment, oh yeah and stress fractures. Besides I feel like my monday night gets a few people in who enjoy the quiet night.  Ohhh if only there were 8 days in the week lol. Have a great holiday weekend.

FRANtastic weekend!!!

I started my weekend off with ...of course... a new injury.  I don't know if I just jammed, hyper extended, or busted my finger, but by today its just really sore and stiff.  After a fielding softball practice I took a bad bounce off a ball and saw stars.  My ring finger was instantly numb and didn't hurt too much so I continued to play.  When I woke up sat morning it was killing me... all bruised and swollen like a sausage.  Thank god I had a half day because I actually need that finger to cut hair and couldn't imagine doing more work than I had scheduled.  I had a great day though and once I clocked out we wrapped me in a splint and went straight to the phils game.

It was just me and rob and we love starting at xfinity for food and beers.  Ive realized its tough to tailgate with only 2 people and sometimes its just awesome to be waited on.  Summer Shandy was my drink of choice for the night and it definitely hit the spot.  The game was pitiful so we left and met up with some buds at a new local bar.

Sunday was awful.  The weather sucked and I was pretty much expecting to play softball, but believe it or not ...we played.  Well... we kinda played.  We more or less got slaughtered which is not like our team.  It was muddy and rainy, but I'm just happy no one got hurt.  When your running around an slipping sliding all over its soo easy to get hurt but nothing was hurt but our egos.

Ali's sweat angel

Soo... today was FRAN at the box!!!!  I was excited but a lil hesitant with my bad shoulder.  Its alot of thrusters which I really haven't been able to do heavy since feb.  Now that we know my shoulder pain is coming from my arm muscles not activating (not working whatsoever) Im trying to stretch and do whatever I can to get them to wake the fuck up!  Before people got there I was hanging with Bonnie and asked her what she suggested.  I ended up doing some 15lb dumbell arm workouts.  Just light, quick but tight movements.  I'm soo awful at dumbells since Ive always done barbell, with the exception of some little stuff.  When I do any dumbell workouts my arms are all wobbly over the place and pretty weak.  Anything over 20 is just pathetic looking and not tight, almost like no control.  Can I tell you how much those exercises helped me.  I went to do my thrusters and I was def nervous that it was going to hurt but I had no pain... I even went up to 125 but couldn't do more than one lol.  I was soo thrilled.  This meant that I was going to participate in FRAN.  This class was great... full of some great people and we banged out the wod soo fast it barely felt like an hour.  I love working out with some of my fav buds, it seemed like an event of some sort.  I even got a short video of 2 of my buds starting fran.

Anyway my I was thrilled with my FRAN score.  I dropped down to the red and orange bands for my pull ups and did the RX weight at 65lbs.  Somehow I beat my old time by a full min.  I'm happy with that especially since I didn't even think I would be able to do it. This was awesome tho because I actually had burning post-wod numbness in my forearms... so I know them babies were working!  I never had that pain there before so as awful and rubbery as it was I know did everything right.

dull week/crossfit withdrawl

So I'm sure everyone is dying to know what Ive done this week ...just kidding lol.  Last weekend was pretty much crazy but nothing athletic or wild to talk about.  I had a funeral, crazy ass prom day(awesome day), a highly productive but insane saturday for my whole shop,  coed softball was cancelled due to mothers day, and we just hung out with moms and did the sunday brunch thing.

Due to my weak and sore shoulder, I took it easy this week and didn't crossfit til today.  I was in alot of pain over the weekend and had to open the shop on monday so I didn't have the time to go anyway.

me and rach were twins today!

The shoulder is feeling much better though and I was having crossfit withdrawl so I knew I had to go today.  I saw Dr Nelson and he said its still not really working right but no pain is good.  The WOD today was alot of overhead squats which I just assumed I wouldn't be doing.  I warmed up with everyone and found that the only thing that really hurt me was push ups, the overhead squats didn't bother me and I even got a PR lol!  After thinking about it all day I think I like doing them they felt easier to do today.  I just felt stronger to hold weight over my head and squat and it felt good, just being back in there felt great.

I had a game tonight... I hit a homerun at my first up at bat, but I had a few balls get by me ughhhhh!  That pisses me off.  My throws were good and my base running was good but man those errors ate me alive!  We were all making errors and laughing about it because we played a team that hasn't won yet.  In the end they almost caught up to us from all of our errors but we shut it down.

where did this week go?

Soo this week went too fast.  I hit my regular crossfit schedule with the exception of  Tues.  After Mondays "grace" wod... i was just burned out lol.  Wed I got to do something new... its apparently a torture squat session lol but i loved it.  I think I did almost 100 squats yesterday with weights half about 65lbs and the rest over 150lbs.  No wonder I'm waddling around today lol.  So somehow the metcon had a few toes to bar(which i still cant do, but the form has gotten much better) which apparently did something to front of my shoulder.  Come to find out today that I must have really pulled it but, Dr Nelson figured out something huge with this.  So I have a majorly under developed bicep on the side that hurts, and that tends to be the side of my back that hurts as well as typical shoulder pain.  I'm glad we found out the weakness that's been causing some annoying pain off and on for a bit now.  Dr Nelson is the man, he really knows his stuff.

After my appt my shoulder felt good enough to workout, and the WOD didn't have much arms in it so I decided to give it a go.  I felt good doing the lift but I had a hard time with the first part of the metcon.  Rowing is something I truly enjoy but today I had to stop after the first round.  It even hurt my shoulder to do box jumps which is bizarre.  Sore wasn't even close to describe how bad it hurt.  I had a hard time driving and also could barely put deodorant under my arm.  Thank god I booked for an appt with my friend who is a massage therapist.  I saw her and just did neck and back, she said I was really tight.  After my awesome massage I was able to move more without pain... thank god because I had a softball game in a couple hours.

I love playing ball with my blue girls.  They're soo funny and its nice to spend that time with them.  I was pissed because I wasn't hitting well and my buds told me that my bat sounded weird.  Sure enough my effin bat was rattling when you tapped it on the ground.  WTF!!! I loved that bat and now its broken... that explains why I couldn't get anything to move on Sunday.  We found out that Easton has a return policy and should take my bat back.  Its not even a year old and I paid good money for it.  Either way we won and are still undefeated.

Tomorrow is a big prom day in the salon and I'm sooo excited for it.  I love formal hair, and thank god I don't have to blow dry because my shoulder couldn't take it.  Its going to be a crazy busy day though.  Days like this I don't have a break or a chance to eat.  I will rely on my orgain shakes to get me through the day lol.  I'm trying to not drink them as much with paleo and all, but its better than not eating and its atleast organic.  Speak of paleo... I had this amazing BACON BLOODY MARY last night, from Zinburger.  My meal was mostly paleo but it was an embellished delicious version. I enjoyed every bit!!!
