Today G.R. came out to the Roaring Fork CrossFit gym to check it out, and Spencer gave us both some run throughs of the Elements moves.  We hopped in by doing a quick warm-up and then he showed us how to do some cleans, some squat presses, and some pull-ups.  Since we were early, having arrived before the normal class time, we were able to start our fitness routine without getting in the way of the rest of the folk.

Spencer worked me through the 3rd day routine.  10 minutes of as many rounds as you can with 7 reps of both burpees and cleans.  Since I’m still recovering, I had to scale down my burpees to sets of 7 pushups off a bar and 7 box jumps to go along with a 14lb medicine ball for the cleans.  I think I completed 6 1/2 rounds in the 10 minutes allotted, and had to run outside to spit the rest of my lungs out.

Needless to say, especially if you’ve read some of my recent posts, but this workout floored me once again.  I hope after a few weeks of this, that I’ll be able to say something different, but then, it probably won’t be the case if I’m really pushing myself.  Just gotta keep on it…
