My list starts at number ten and culminates at the number one reason I'd love to hate Crossfit but don't.  I'm sure if you've been doing the Crossfit WOD's for any length of time you could easily add to the list and I'd love to hear about your hates. So please make a comment at the end of the list, if for nothing else to tell me I'm not alone!

10. The WOD’s make me realize that I’m not in that great of shape and that hurts my ego.

 9. Usually after a WOD I find muscles I didn’t know I had, and they hurt.

 8. I’m not a fan of vomit and on occasion I’ve been pushed to that point. Damn you      Crossfit, working out is supposed to be easy and relaxing.

 


It’s been an uphill battle selling all my stuff on EBAY. It seems like I’ve had more late payments and non-payments than good transactions. The most recent was a vehicle we were trying to sell. This was to be the big-ticket item that would give me a couple grand towards new Crossfit equipment. I’ve listed the vehicle several times before but it did not sell for what I wanted. When it did finally sell, I got cheated on a deposit and ultimately the final sale. In my opinion the guy was feeling buyers remorse and found any excuse to back out of the deal. When it came time to pay (as we were filling out the title) he backed out because the license plate number on the title did not match the one on the vehicle. After numerous attempts to convince him the VIN number is what matters, he refused to budge. He said the deal was shady even after we suggested a ride to the local police station to verify the title. Mayra even agreed to drive the car to Los Angeles and meet the dude at the DMV. He agreed but backed out after she made the trip, and basically we never heard from him again. We received a fraction of the deposit via PayPal, but ended up spending that amount in gas and additional title replacement fees, since the title was partially changed to reflect the sale prior to him backing out. We might take the guy to court to get our money back but have not yet decided.

 


Crossfit Home Gym – The Build Week 2

Posted by: lfischer25

Tagged in: Crossfit

Well this last weekend I did some serious moving. I moved the baby room to the old workout room, moved the office to the old babies room and moved the home gym to the old office, if that makes sense. It was quite a mess as you can tell from the photos. I promise my stuff is not usually that un-organized.

Since the room for the new office was much smaller than the old one, I had to downsize. Thus began my mass cleanup effort, which also included making room in the garage and old office for the future gym. To make room, I new I had to get rid of a lot of things that had been sitting there collecting dust. On Friday night I began moving the rooms. Along the way I began making a pile of stuff I thought I could live without. When I was done moving the essentials I was shocked to see my “Stuff” pile had grown to monumental proportions, I realized I had collected more crap than I could have ever imagined. Next I began organizing the new office and babies’ room. I could live without a gym for a few days, heck I didn’t even have the equipment yet, but we couldn’t live without those two rooms.


Crossfit Home Gym – The Build Week 1
As for the progress of the home crossfit gym well I’ve had a little setback but nothing I can’t overcome. I was planning on using the money from the sale of a Mustang but it did not sell on Ebay. I got a couple offers but they were a bit low so I’ll have to re-list. It just means I’m

Crossfit End of Week 1 – WOD’S and how I despise them already.
Well it has been an interesting week. Giving up on my traditional workout schedule has been tough. If you’ve lifted for years and years you’ll know what I mean. Luckily the WOD’s have been grueling enough to make me forget about my old schedule. They sort of make me focus on what future misery I’m going to be subjected to.
