REST DAY!

Something to meditate on:

Once you've been hurt by someone, whether it be physical or emotional, after you practice the "event" of forgiving the individual; how do you process in the time after you forgave? It's not just forgiving and forgetting and moving on. You had your time and spirit invested in a person and it often feels like they've stolen something precious from you. What does it look like to process the moments and lifetime that follows the "event" of forgiving someone?

Post your thoughts in the comments...

My friends at CrossFit Lincoln are doing this WOD today, so I thought I would share the love.

The WOD today is in honor of "Jeremy"

The story behind the WOD:
Three year old Jeremy Bloniasz lost his life in a tragic accident Thursday, July 6th. To Jeremy's parents, Kelly and Jeremy, the entire CrossFit family offers our deepest sorrow.

In young Jeremy's honor the following workout will be known from here on as "Jeremy."

Three rounds for time:

21-15-9 reps:

Overhead squats, 95#/65#
Burpees

REST DAY!!!

Enjoy it. Go for a long walk. Remember, low intensity exercise burns more fat during the workout than high intensity. The paradigm in high intensity training is that you train your body to do more fat burning during rest.

CrossFit empowers women!

It's not just empowering to women, but anyone who has given up on getting healthy and fit. No matter where you are fitness-wise, CrossFit can make you better. CrossFit can make you better at your sport; better at your daily activities; better at life.
