nothing like a free ass kicking....
i went to my crossfit evaluation today, and completely had my ass handed to me. i met danny v (manager) and we talked about crossfit, why i was interested in training there and what some of my goal were. i filled out my waiver (of course) and then we hit the mats. the tour was quick (large industrial space, rubber floors, medicine balls, kettlebells, gymnastic rings, large weights and jump ropes) and we went over the 5 skills that i would need to execute properly. went over the correct mechanics of a pull up, push up, squat, sit-up and using the rowing machine - then it was time for business.
the test/evaluation:
500m row
40 squats
30 sit-ups
20 push-ups
10 pull-ups
my finish time was 9:26 - it totally kicked my ass
i hung out on the couch for about 10-15 minutes before i left to cool down and then felt totally not in my mind after leaving. the workout was intense, but danny was a great coach and i am very interested in moving forward and entering the application process to get in, i'm just scared of how badly it will kick my ass and i don't want to drop serious money only to find out i am in over my head. i might observe a level 1 class before i throw down some serious $.
well, time for some more resting and relaxing - tomorrow is some last minute cruise shopping. then 2 days of work then i am off to vacation with adrienne.
