Ode to the AIrfit

Airfit, the devil's tricycle, my friend, my enemy.
You make my lungs burn.
You make me want to puke.
Calories slowly tic by.
Time stands still.

Still I strap my feet in.
Still I push, push, punch punch.
I watch the calories climb up.
I count down until I can get off
And collapse on the floor.

I hate you.
I love you.
You make me stronger
You make me badass.
Fuck you, Airfit,
Until next time.

2014 in Review

Today, we did a lung burner, like a hardcore-still-wheezing-lung-burner. It is freezing out so add shortness of breath to the crisp air, makes for an ugly, barking cough. That being said, I RX'd another workout. I used to celebrate every workout and especially every RX.

Afterwards, I was laying on the ground (in my humbled "pray" position), thinking, so what!?! I didn't feel like I did much to "deserve" an RX.

What is next for me?

Let's review my PR for lifting:
Deadlifts: 225lb
Overhead Squat (OHS): 70lb <---weakness
Back Squat: 195lb
Front Squat: 135lb
Clean and Jerk: 105lb
Thruster (3 rep): 90lb
Bench: 100lb
Snatch: 80lb <--looks super ugly and I do a split snatch

Notables:
Grace (RX): 12:09
Filthy Fifty: 32:30 (mod)
Fran: 6:16 (65lb, ring rows)

Today's workout:
40 wall balls 14lb
40 calories on the AirFit
40 calories on the rower

8:39

So, goals for next year:
1. faster running
2. elusive double unders
3. banded pull-ups

Finally, to compete in a competition. There is one Jan. 31 is looking mighty tempting.
