Traveling WODs...

Well, the holiday celebrations have taken priority over my training cycle these last three days. Preparing for Santa, yummy and filling meals, wine, snow, and traveling have made it nearly impossible to get in a good workout. That being said, some rest days and focusing on the most important people in my life during the holidays has been absolutely wonderful. Jeremy and I took a huge risk and investment this year opening up our new location in Alexandria and we are both enjoying our emotional break from the business for a few days. However, we still push each other to workout even if it is a traveling wod. It is fun to compete against Jeremy in CrossFit because we both have our strengths and they are completely different. I crush him when it come to lower body strength, right now with stamina, and endurance. Jeremy shines when it comes to upper body strength or gymnastics, and we both are extremely flexible. This is another reason I absolutely love CrossFit. Everyone has their strengths and because our workouts are designed to be holistic, functional, and random it gives everyone a chance to attack their weaknesses, and show their strengths.
