crossfit one comes to austin
reebok crossfit one is in austin today and held open WODs at luke's locker. the weather says its only 85 outside but i don't believe it for a second... IT WAS HOT! (i count working out in extreme heat as 2 workouts). we went over the basics for the people that haven't ever done crossfit and then broke into teams and did 2 rounds of 1 min AMRAP pullups, box jumps, kettlebell swings and squats. that is the main thing i LOVE about crossfit... i technically only worked-out for 8 minutes! but was completely exhausted.
i am back in my routine of doing crossfit on tuesday and thursday mornings at 7am and have convinced my roommate to sign up. hopefully this will help keep us both motivated! we are working on cooking at home everynight and eating as close to paleo as we can (having a yogurt store in my apartment building is making this really difficult).
after getting my first body comp done this week, i am more motivated than ever to get in shape! i am bordering on the "ideal/fitness" and "average" line but really would like to get down to the lower end of "fitness" or into "lean" which will require me losing about 4% body fat... UGH!
peanut butter banana smoothie
i recently got a vitamix blender and i am COMPLETELY obsessed! i have been trying out tons of different smoothie/shake recipes. this is one of my favorites... it seriously tastes like a milkshake!
3/4 cup coconut/almond milk
1 scoop protein powder
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 banana
2 spoons peanut butter
spinach
TIP- if you don't have a good blender, freeze your banana and you won't have to use ice!
don't be afraid of the GREENness! i promise you can't even taste the spinach!
