After finishing up my heavy squat cycle, my coach asked me what I wanted to work on next. I thought about it for a bit, and I decided that I thought the best move for me, next, would be to fix my strange “power snatch and power clean everything” affliction. Thus, I have dubbed this […]
Since I came back from my gigantic trip, I’ve felt completely off – my weight is down almost 10 pounds, I hadn’t been weight training with any consistency in about 3 months between work travel and everything else, and I just felt like a complete and total mess. I told all of this to my […]
After chatting with my coach today about a variety of things, I decided to try and get into my online USAW account. Why not, right? So after encountering some weird technical issues, I finally got in (thanks, USAW tech support!) and was able to update my profile. After that, I decided to poke around the […]
Today was pretty flipping awesome for so so many reasons… here’s just a sampling of them… 10. I GOT TO TALK TO MY LITTLE TALI!! 9. Andy, Jason and I got to hash out a bunch of Neko stuffs. 8. Steak, green beans, and baby red potatoes for dindin. YUM. 7. I stopped being antisocial […]
Point blank, traveling and trying to keep up with your routine BITES. In the past few weeks, I’ve been on a weeklong trip to Houston & San Francisco, back to Jersey for four days, and then back to San Francisco for another week. And then back, with hives and a cold, which I attribute to […]
So what’s interesting about this check-in is that it’s also my one year(is) crossfit check-in. My first WOD was 3/23/2013, so it’s between this month’s and next month’s check-in… and today is my mom’s birthday and I have a lot to say. So I’m saying it today, and you’re going to like it. Or not, […]

In my attempts to move forward and learn more about all things lifting, I’ve decided to embark on a journey with an individualized lifting program. This will be in addition to my typical Crossfit, Derby and group Oly classes, so everything. is. about. to. get. crazy. Since I’m training for the NYC Open, I’ll be […]
Wow I feel like I blogged SO MUCH in January because of the FDU meet, and then pretty much not at *all* the past week. Meep. I’ll work on that. Anyhow, what’s new this month? Well… I officially sent off my registration for the NYC Open on March 16th, so that’s a thing I’m doing […]
