I think I've fallen in love with CrossFit

So I tried CrossFit last week thanks to a ready-to-expire Amazon Local coupon for $80. And I'll be honest- it's really tough, but I kind of love it.

I like how challenging it is and every time I finish a workout, I'm impressed with myself and feel like I want to do better next time, which is the whole point of making progress, right?

My first class was last week and it was the free non-member class, which was a great day to start since I'd be there with other beginners.

We warmed up with some jump rope and air squats before moving on to an overview of some barbell movements.

Then onto the actual workout, it was a 15-minute workout, five exercises, one minute each for a total of three rounds.

Wall balls, burpees, sit-ups, kettlebell swings and pushups were that day's particular poison.

After keeping track of how many reps for each exercise you know have a baseline to use later on should you do that particular workout again.

Everything that people say about CrossFit, has been true so far.
The welcoming people.
The hard work.
The sweat.
The soreness.

It's all been true. But it's all so gratifying and I can't wait for the next class.
