"F**k, this is really heavy... I wonder will I actually he able to get it over my head 🤔🤔"
Great morning spent competing at , placed 6th overall.. Honestly a little disappointed with that cause I made a balls of the first workout and could have done better, but you live and you learn 🤷🤷
Came away with another 2.5kg added to my Clean & Jerk PB- I've no video so you'll just have to trust me 😂 67.5kg... on we go to 70 💪.

How I feel about 2020 so far.......

Following on from yesterday’s discussion on self-love and food etc..... who needs abs when you can just tuck your lower gut into your leggings anyway? 🤷🏻♀️😂😂

Current shape: little bit fluffy, little bit strong 🥳.

Eat to -FUEL- your body, not to -PUNISH- it 💕🍇🍓.
——
I’ve changed my mentality a lot regarding food in the past year or two.
I had been constantly dieting- binging- gaining weight again- and repeating this process for years since I started going to the gym.
——
It wasn’t until I started to really focus on improving my athletic ability and stopped focusing so much on how I looked in the mirror (obviously there will always be some focus on this as I’m only human, but it’s not the main goal anymore), that the person I saw in the mirror became a much more consistent version of who I wanted to be.
—-
A lot of this is to do with mindset, but not forcing myself to be in a constant state of dieting has been huge for me. I can acknowledge times in my life that I was in better or worse physical condition (pre- corona virus being one of those better times), without letting it effect my mood or my self worth.
——
Basically what this long ass caption was trying to say is- LOVE YASELF and eat the good foods, and some of the bad foods cause they make you feel good too 🤗🤗.

Today’s fitness was: an 18km cycle with my quarantine buddy 🚲 💕.
—-
This was my first ever real cycle (going in and out a couple of km to college on a rusty old mountain bike back in the day doesn’t count)... I absolutely LOVED it!
—-
Gyms being closed is the perfect time to get outside and mix up your normal fitness routine- no excuse for sitting around with all this free time 🤷🏻♀️.
—-
Dads jacket & dads bike- he might not be getting them back now 😂 Tour de France 2021 here I come 🤣.

Another successful dog date with .fennin & 💕.

Truth be told, we don’t even bother walking the dogs, we just drive to a random woods, take a load of photos and throw the dogs back in the car 🤷🏻♀️ It’s gr8 for the insta sure 😂.

“Ah sure I’ll do this Filthy 150 and get a few nice pics for the gram at the very least”.....
—-
Slim pickings let me tell you 🤣.
—-
Genuinely loved every minute of it! Time to get the head down and actually be a bit more prepared to compete the next time I do it 💪🏼.

@ Punchestown
WHAT. A. WEEKEND!
—
My second ever competition, and first one outside of our own gym, and what a floor to compete on! Who would have thought when I went to my first CrossFit class back in January that I’d be finishing out the year like this 🙌🏻.
—-
I couldn’t have asked for better teammates in and ... constantly supporting and pushing each other on! And a huge thanks to everyone from the family who came to support us on the day (and take some cool pics and videos), you guys are the real MVP’s 💕.
—-
I have a lot of positives to take away from this event, and overall I’m happy with how I performed on the day, but seeing other teams and elite athletes taking the floor has really just hammered home the fact that there is always, and will always be so much to work on in this sport! Onwards and upwards from here 💪🏼.

Team 3G takes on the Flithy 150 🙌🏼.
——
Yesterday’s workout was 🔥🔥.
—-
WOD #1
10-1
Power Sn**ch
Burpee over Bar
(Complete 10 reps of each exercise, then 9/8/7..... all the way down to 1- 55 reps in total).
—-
#2
5 minute EMOM
5 kips
(Focussing on getting toes as close to the bar as possible, but without re-kipping, just working on building in the continuous movement).
—-
WOD #3
21-15-9
Calorie Bike
Calorie Row
Calorie Ski.
—-
The whole thing didn’t take any more than 45 minutes (with massive rests and chats in between 😜), I got a good sweat on, and worked on a few weaknesses all at the same time 💪🏼.
—-
I definitely didn’t set the world on fire with my speed here, but I’ve noted my times for both workouts and plan on re-testing them again in 4-6 weeks to see if there’s any improvement in my endurance by then!

HUGE Client win this week! Jessica started with me back in July.. she finished her final session last night, and is now spreading her wings and going out into the big bad world of fitness by herself 💪🏼.
——
The results here speak for themselves and are an absolute testament to the hard work and dedication Jessica has put in over the last few months! I honestly couldn’t have asked for more cooperation than I got from this girl!
——
Absolutely no questions, Jess did everything I asked of her and then some; from training 2x per week by herself outside of our sessions, to tracking calories and hitting a protein target, to adding in extra mobility to improve her range of motion... she gave 110% to everything we did, and has come on in leaps and bounds! She is now fully confident stepping into the gym by herself, and I couldn’t be more confident that this is only the beginning for her 🙌🏽.
——
As a PT, I don’t have a magic wand, I can simply give advice and encouragement to my clients, but the work comes down to them and them alone. Jess put in the work, and she’s gotten incredible results because of her commitment!.

But honestly, who’s cuter? Max dressed in a cone or Rachel dressed for graduation?? 🎓🐶.

(Wouldn’t be fair to include myself in that question as I am, of course, the obvious winner here 💁🏻♀️🤣).

Recovery is 🔑

My neck and back have been in a HOOP the last few days, and I wanted to get them sorted before I attempt 20.2 tonight!
Who better to turn to for a back cracking than 🙌🏽 (You big creep) 😂.

So lucky to be surrounded by such strong women everyday 💪🏼 (I wouldn’t want to mess with us, just saying 😏).
——-
Glad to be finished the first workout of the CrossFit Open, and have my first experience judging under my belt now 🤗.

Bring on the next 5 weeks of pain 😂.

@ 3G Fitness
After 7 weeks of work on my Olympic Lifting, yesterday marked the first day of testing 🙌🏽.
——-
I tested my sn**ch in week 1 and hit a max of 44kg (1kg lower than my previous best), after re-testing yesterday, I brought it up to 47.5kg!
——-
It’s not a massive jump, but with such technical lifts, I wasn’t expecting it to be.. just happy to see some improvements 💪🏼.
——-
Today I’ll be testing Clean and Jerk and will post the results on here whenever I get a chance 🤙🏼.
