So today ( Thursday the 20th) I was driving to school and thinking about Crossfit, what I have learned at my Level 1 Cert, what it meant to be a Crossfitter, What it means to now have my Cert, How to be a Bigger and Better Role-model for my Box and everyone around me, you know the usual. But there was one thing that stuck in my mind today and it was "Intensity" this maybe in part with my fascination with Dave Lipson and his 365 days of Squatting his awesome Hair and the Fact that he looks kinda like me and has now become a new mentor and role-model for me.
But part of the reasoning behind his 365 days of squatting is that its a challenge its a stressor to his body and a way for him to push and find his limits physically and mentally. And this is what I learned about in my Level 1 Intensity is RELATIVE to each persons own mental and physical limits. Which lead me to the question What are my physical and mental limits int he world of crossfit, and what are my mental and physical limits in life? This is something that I am now interested in finding out and plan on doing. I will be spending this weekend working out ideas on how to explore my limits and as a result the future post of my blog will begin to change. I will still be discussing what I eat every day but I will be more committed to a stricter zone, monitoring the time I eat what I eat and how i feel throughout the day and what my performance is like. I will also be discussing each days WOD how i did where I need to improve and possibly my idea of imposing penalties on myself to push my limits. These penalties may be anything from 5 burpees every-time I stop and rest to anything really. I want to know and understand my bodies mental and physical limits what I can push past and what I can't. I am planning on committing at least the next month to this quest and longer if need be! But enough of this rambling time to get to my food so I can talk about my plan on Sunday or Monday when I start my Quest!
