Today was quite possibly one of the worst WOD's I have done in a long time.  Failure was eminent in all exercises.  Form was terrible.  I am not kidding when I say that my form and level of failure was equivalent to when I first started Crossfit.  During the second or third round of sit ups I was dry heaving.  Daniel was yelling keep it down and keep going.  Thanks brother.  I did but man it sucked.  Last year it took till January to be in the gym every day.  For 8 months I was dedicated.  Probably the longest and most consistent string of weight training I have ever had and I was in good shape.  I hope I can keep this going from now on.

Dad came in and counted this one for me. Thanks Dad. I was stupid on the pull-ups and learned my lesson. I think I held back to much on the body squats. The sit-ups were all I could do, but were unbroken, and the push-ups were to pretty much to failure every time with short rests breaking them up. This one was tough. great work out though. I feel good about it since it is my first time on this one. My right shoulder is still killing me. It just throbs. Right bicep is really sore and tight at the attachment in the elbow too, after this one.
