Now that I have figured out the remote posting, I will start adding my own personal version of the CrossFit Workout of the Day (WOD) that includes my usual morning PT session.  Very infrequently, it will include the obligatory push-ups, sit-ups and run that is customary in the Army.  20+ years of health and fitness innovations and we are still using workout methodologies invented during World War II.  But do not fret, for me, these workouts are far and few between.  Usually a precursor to an upcoming APFT (16 OCT).  Otherwise, my workouts involve some kind of Russian kettlebell smoke session where I try to punish my boss or the very few of my peers that dare to show up for some real PT.  I've been truly impressed with the kettlebell workouts since Santa Claus squared me away for my birthday (thanks Honey!!!).

 

Still nursing my hyperextended elbow from the Judo tournament three weeks ago.  Don't want to start back with the pushups too early because I want to save the elbow for some killer CrossFit workouts after the PT test.  Looking forward to lots of pullups, deadlifts, and overhead presses throwing some iron around.  I don't want to just focus on the PT test anymore, it is not good for my fitness if you can believe that.  But just doing PU, SU and run everyday makes your strength very imbalanced (no pulling) and all that running makes you very tight (not flexible) and prone to injuries like the sore knee and foot I've been nursing for as long as I can remember.  I'm thinking adding in some CrossFit worthy workouts will clear up some of my problems.  We'll see...
