Turns out my CrossFit gym is giving all of us a taste of some of the Winter Throwdown workouts even if we didn't compete over the weekend.

Tuesday morning when I checked the blog I saw we'd get the distinct pleasure of doing the snatch/burpee combo.



After seeing just how gassed that left everyone during the throwdown, I knew I was going to be hurting during that workout.


Names redacted because not everyone likes to have their life broadcast on the Internet

Yes sometimes I sass my CrossFit coaches on Facebook.

But I sucked it up, dragged my butt to the gym and get my ass handed to me. Burpees are just the devil.

Still managed to finish in a fairly decent time.


Please note, Wedds and Paul did a completely different workout since they actually participated in the throwdown.

Tonight, we're going to be doing another one of the workouts from the throwdown:

• Four minutes of rowing (for meters)


• 15 seconds rest (basically to get off the rower)


• 1 minute max goblet squats

I'll look forward to not being able to walk on Friday morning.
