This is a blog to track my progress in Crossfit.

Cardiorespiratory endurance, stamina, strength, power, speed,
flexibility, agility, accuracy, balance, and coordination: you're as good as
your weakest link.

I'm Baaaaaaaaack

First WOD in a while for me. Grand opening WOD at CrossFit Beat in the Safeway Plaza on Baseline/Foothills.

5x5 Back squat (I did LBBS)
45-55-65-75-75-75 Felt good. 75 was definitely a good max weight on this for me. Form started to crack at 75.

3-10 back lunges with bar (35#)
