Semi-Annual Assesment

Eeek! As we make our way into the second half of 2008, I wanna take a moment for some thoughtful reflection.

This year's fitness goals:

To focus more on strength training. Earlier this year, I set some reasonably attainable goals for myself (see below). The plan was to supplement CF with some Rippetoe style lifts every 3rd/4th day however, my work trips and busy schedule have been limiting factors in this effort thus far. This became very apparent at the CrossFit Games when I had to scale down 2 of the 4 workouts, exposing a part of my training regimen that needs extra attention. Next year I hope to complete all of the wods as Rx'd and within the time limit.
