1. Handstand push-ups – I’m getting better, but still need to get rid of those mats.
2. Running – I want to be able to run 1 mile without wanting wanting to pass out since I forget to breathe.
3. Grilling – This is not so much gym related, but I need to learn how to use my grill so I can grill some new paleo food. That thing is just so scary to me!!

2. Running

Last month was: 1) Double Unders in a WOD: I completed my first 100 in a WOD!! 2) 65lb thrusters – I managed to stick with 65lb thruster even though I knew it would be tough for me! 3) Endurance and pushing myself in WODs more – I feel that I’ve been improving on this as well..will keep working on, though! 4) Butterfly pullups-getting pretty decent at that but still need to work on timing 5) Manly pushups – did first set of 90 pushups without bands (10 count throughout workout) 6) Handstand pushups-still haven’t done but looks interesting π
This month:
1) Continue improving on the above goals
2) KBS form-I tend to lose form when I try to go faster. Gonna go to the market and find me a KB!
3) Try to attend Oly classes more frequently to work on form/strength more.
4) Dance and sing like there is no tomorrow!
5) Stay Paleo strong!
There once was a Paleo girl
Who ate pizza and wanted to hurl
Stomach bubbles were created
Which she so much hated
Paleo is beautiful like a pearl.
