Blah. I'm just not into it these days. I'm having to drag and force myself to the gym and I just don't have any intensity. I need a change of scene, new gym and change of plans.

I realize now the appeal of Crossfit for so many people, myself included; it's a great way to be fit for the many of us out there with no sport and no goals other than to have fun and be fit. The constant changing workouts and varibilty of each workout is a dramatic and refreshing change from the some old day in and day out workouts that so many people are accustomed to and force themselves into. We all have enough mindless repition and static in our lives that going to the gym and doing the same thing week in week out is painful. No it's not a good strenght program or template if you play X sport but the majority of CF'ers are desk jockeys.
I need to go back to basics.

DROM
-Ab Roller Work:
Kneeling x15
Standing Incline 3rolls x5
Solid. Managing to get really low on these while standing further away than before.
-Back Squats: 105x3x3
-Bench Press: 69x5x2 / 69x4
-Weighted Pull-ups: 21x4 / 20x4 / 20x3
Tired, crabby, underfed and just not into it. The only good thing were the ab-rollers, other than that the squats felt like a ton, got pinned on the the last rep on bench press and the weighted pull-ups weren't there.
