favorite month of the year: december

First let me say: Happy, happy December, all! Time for holiday music, festive lighting decorations, ugly sweaters, and snow sports! LOVE!

1RM Deadlift: 76kg

I only just attempted to hit my 1 rep max last night, and I decided to max at 76kg - to stop adding weights after I lifted 76 a couple of times. As this was my first attempt at finding one, I wanted to be comfortable with my form - bar running along the legs as you reach the top, and back down. I have bruises to show for it. Suffice it to say, I've never thought so much about maintaining proper form as I did last night - sitting back and then lifting the weight was much more difficult than just bearing the weight with the back - but I definitely do not feel the stress today.

I hope I get much stronger the next go! Love #CrossFit, and love my Crossfit Chicago tee.

Warm-up:
Tabatha -
jumprope
burpees (star jump)
kettle ball swings
