4th & 5th On-Ramp Class

4th On-Ramp:

How did I miss this? I reeeaaallllyyy can't remember what we did. WTH?! Well, will update after I check out what the hell we did.

5th On-Ramp:

Oh fun fun fun ! We learned how to do snatches, which I really need to work on, and we did beginner's rope climbing ! Yeay !

WOD:

7 KB Swings
2 Rope Climbs
7 Snatch
10 Russian Lunges

12 mins AMRAP

Okay, my time? I thought I did 5 rounds. I have this problem with remembering my time and reps after the WOD. So when most of them wrote 4 rounds so I did just that. 4 + 9.

Oh well. Tomorrow is my last on-ramp class then I'll join the big boys, and girls, and see what I can actually do. And progress ! Wootz !

CrossFit - Fittest Woman on Earth: Samantha Briggs



Finally found a way to share this. Samantha Briggs, fittest woman on earth!

My second Crossfit foundation class


                                         

Those 2 images of my new Polar was taken on the same day. I decided to go for a relaxed cardio session in the morning because I was going to my second on-ramp Crossfit at night.

Targeted for a 5 km run on the treadmill but ended up doing only 2.5 km. I got bored. Then I continued with 2 rounds of farmer's walk, a lil bit of pull-ups and chin-ups, jump rope and core strengthening. In short, I was just fooling around.

Fortunately the Crossfit second foundation class was fun.Tiring, but fun! Learned more new things but one thing for sure is I need to stretch before I go to the class. I felt tight everywhere ! Okay that didn't sound right but you know what I mean!

WOD for on-ramp:

8 jumping pull-ups
10 thrusters
12 lunges
140 m run

4 rounds for time

My record was 10:45



Yes then I slept like a baby and didn't hear my alarm this morning ! I was recovering !

On-Ramp @ Crossfit Vidatha





The plan was to do a recording on my crossfit journey but that's a lil hard to do. I'm video shy
                                                                             
So anyways, I had my first on-ramp foundation class at Crossfit Vidatha last night at 8pm. The on-ramp foundation consist of 6 classes lead be Coach Madhu and to be completed within 2 weeks. This foundation class will help the newbies prepare for the full Crossfit training. It's all about the technique baby !

So yesterday, the WOD was:

250m row

15-12-9 reps
Bodyweight Row (Not sure if this is the correct name. But it's similar to Australian pull-ups)
Air Squat
Push Up
Med Ball Deadlift

250m row

One month of very few high intensity trainings coupled with 4 days of raya food, damn I was beat ! But I still love it ! Learned new techniques and honestly I am so bloody excited to see my progress. My goal for now is pull-ups. Strict or kipping. Doesn't matter.
