A place to share some Crossfit or life successes and thoughts.

Year has come and gone.

   This last July 15th, 2014 marked my one year anniversary of doing Crossfit. I did the work out I started this journey with again and improved upon my time. I actually shaved more than three minutes off the time from when I did this work out six months ago.(link to video Work out 1.2) I am looking forward to shaving off another couple minutes. 

   Looking at my last blog post I see two things. First it has been way too long since my last post. Sorry for that. Two I have not been videoing my workouts like I mentioned I would. My form I feel has gotten better, but I do not know that for sure. This next week I plan to start videoing at least one work out a week that I feel would be good for me take closer look at.

   Not only has my one year anniversary come and gone, but also I finally did my body fat test. Below are the results as compared to the test I did a little over 6 months ago. In parentheses I am showing the difference in the measurements from the last test on January 6th, 2014

June 18th, 2014
Weight at time of test: 228lbs (-1 lb)
Estimated bodyfat: 15.7% (-0.8%)
Fat Weight: 35.8lbs (-2lbs)
Lean Body Weight: (+1lb)

Circumference Measurement (relaxed)
Forearm: 12" (+1.25")
Bicep: 14" (+0.25")
Umbilicus: 40" (-1.0")
Waist: 35.25" (-3.75")
Chest: 45.5" (+1.25")

Hip: 44" (-0.25")
Thigh: 26" (0")


   Main results are the loss in inches around my waist. I am comfortably wearing a size 32 waist pair of pants and am interested to see if my body will par down to a 30 waist pant size. The last time I was a 30 waist was when I was a sophomore in high school. Only time will tell. I will continue to enjoy the occasional pizza and double cheeseburger with fries. :) I am still staying away from sweets and am to the point that I really do not miss them. In fact the smell of many sweets is almost sickening.

   Thanks for reading, as always be sure to subscribe to the blog, subscribe to my YouTube channel for videos I upload and leave any comments of anything you would like to read or see. I will begin with this posting to share my blog posts also on Facebook. There have been many people who have commented they would notice updates easier through that medium.

This is where the fun begins,
