I hate that I psyched myself out. I suppose I shouldn't even look online to see what the workout is, because truly it doesn't matter. I need to do it, no matter how much I might hate it. Since I shucked out of going to CrossFit I decided to go online and find a WOD I could do at home where I wouldn't need any type of equipment. I found one and boy did it kick my booty!
The warm up was 3 rounds
50 jumping jacks
10 push ups
10 air squats
I took a 5 min break in between the warm up and workout. I got some water, opened up some windows to get a slight cross breeze throughout the house to help me cool off a bit.
My WOD was 4 rounds:
25 push ups
20 lunges w/ each leg
15 sit ups
10 air squats
5 burpees
60 second planks
This ended up being much harder than it looked. Halfway through my brain tried to convince myself that just doing 2 rounds was good enough. I stood in my living room arguing with myself and I ended up finishing all 4 rounds. I was thoroughly worn out.
My husband called me this afternoon to see how my workout went and he was a little ticked I didn't make it to class. He reminded me just how much it costs and that I need to go no matter how much I hate running. He's right. I need to go.
I still feel like I'm in a bit of a "funk" since last Friday's workout. I think it was so hard that it scared me and then seeing how much running there was to do today, I let that fear keep me from going to class. I told my husband at the very beginning that I was tired of letting fear rule my choices in life and here I catch myself doing it again.
I suppose we all have setbacks along the journeys we take. I will go on Wednesday and will give it 100% no matter how much I may hate it.
