So, I just finished a 7 day cleanse. While I was worried it would be tough to do I actually found it quite easy(except for day 2 when I debated attacking a stranger to steal their bag of popcorn). Interestingly enough my energy increased with each additional day on the cleanse. So last night when I saw todays WOD for Big Dawgs was building to a heavy Deadlift and a 1RM Bench Press I was intrigued as to how they would feel. I ended up getting a 15# PR on my deadlift(with a hook grip nonetheless) and it felt easy. I know I could have done even more but I stopped as the directions were to build to a heavy single and not a 1RM. My BP numbers weren't great. I cannot figure out my issue with this as I have a fairly strong push-up. I will need to get my next attempt on film to try and figure it out.
Anyways, enough about me. Yesterday the energy at the gym was great! I coached almost all day and got to see people hit PR's on their DL's and one of the other coachs do their 'Birthday WOD.' Best of all though I got to see one of the other women at the gym get their first muscle-up(Congrats RC!!) Getting to see the transition finally 'click' for her and then her reaction afterwards was unreal!!! It(no joke) was almost better than getting one myself. I know I have said this before but as a coach seeing other people(especially your friends) PR is an unbelievable feeling and something I can't really explain.
I leave for California to watch the CF Games in 3 days! I cannot wait to experience the games for the first time and even better to do so with some of my closest friends. Woohoo!!
