4 Minutes
To type a blog.
Sorry. A little Madonna/JT reference.
First, thanks for the congrats on my certification! I feel pretty darn good about it.
To answer the question why… I found Cross Fit through a blog, not sure who it was now. They mentioned it and I looked it up. I was intrigued. I spent a lot of time reading their website and trying to implement workouts. Doing that at LA Fitness is interesting at best. But I manage to make it happen. I love every sweaty, painful on the verge of puking moment of it! (Stacey - you would be in heaven!)
I knew I was going to be teaching PE next year and saw that there was a curriculum and a whole Cross Fit kids section and certification. I knew it was what I needed for my kids! I really want to come at it from a fully informed position, hence the certification. Well worth every penny. I already have a couple of friends interested and coming to do workouts on Saturdays with me! YAY! I won’t start charging yet. This is just practice.
Thank you also for the sweet comments about my girl and her dress. It’s funny that some of you would say that I’m a great mom. It was trying some times getting that dress sewn. My baby girl is 10 and we have begun to hit that line of fiend vs. parent. I have to constantly remind myself to not get my feelings hurt by her and teach her how to learn and respond. There were many moments that I felt I was pretty much just a beeyotch, but she (unfortunatley) held her own. I think it was especially hard this week. My hormones were inflicting their evil plan and my husband was out of town. Not a good combination. But we got the dress done and entered. I’m praying she gets an award. I fear the disappointment if she doesn’t.
Ok, I went over by 4 minutes. Gotta go.
XO Have a spectacular Monday!

First off, we seem to have the same shoulder issue going on…dips fn kill me at the moment~bah hate that!
Second~Cute dress!
Third~Crossfit for Kids seems perfect for a PE class~how lucky are they! And yes I do love the whole puke thing…that’s why I love going to the MMA gym. After looking into crossfit I realized it’s pretty close to what we do up there. So I do that every am and in the pm I lift weights~and wonder why my hamstring and shoulder are fd up lol
Good times!

Wow when I’m done with PN I’m totally looking into Crossfit. I’m told that the workouts we’re doing are like Crossfit - and I’m loving them (in a love/hate sort of way!)
