20 Minute Tuesday

Hi Friends!!

So last night I tried out Cross-fit for the first time! I have been dying to see what this hype is all about and when I found out I can try a month out for nearly nothing, I decided why not?! I won’t be doing it everyday as I am doing Insanity as well (which I love) but on me weight training days I am going switch it out 🙂

So what did I think?? It was fun! Not exactly as I expected, but pretty close. Honestly if I just judged it by this one class I would say it wasn’t nothing harder then what I normally do, but I know every workout is different. It’s also very competition like, which I like because that’s how I am wired!! I know that competitiveness is not for everyone, but that is the whole reason I sign up for races!! I am interested to see how the incorporate all the muscle groups and how many calories I burn in each class.

I thought I would give you a little piece of what we did last night, but not exactly, because you would need a kettle bell. We did the following workout for time. So basically we powered through as hard as we could to see how fast we could do it. I killed it and finished in under 11 minutes!! I better have, I have been doing interval training for 5 years now!!
