We All Need to Crush a WOD Every Now and Then…

The workout of the day (WOD) was 100 double under buy-in followed by front squats and burpee box jump overs.  I did really well and did the double unders unbroken.

Before this, I was feeling blah.  Workouts were tough.  Getting to the box was tough.  Everything was tough.

Crushing a WOD boosted my confidence, and I left feeling a thousand times better.  I left looking forward to the weekend and some rest days and ready to hit the box on Monday all in.

CrossFit is tough.  There’s no question about it.  It wears you down.  You go through seasons where it’s everything inside of you just to get to the box and go through the workout.  There there’s the opposite spectrum where you’re gung-ho, ready to conquer every move thrown at you.

Perseverance.  Grit.  Determination.

These are the characteristics that define CrossFit and the people who do it day-in and day-out.

And it’s when you perform your best that gets you through when you barely perform at all.

So relish those WODs that reinforce why you do CrossFit.  They are few and far between, but we all need them.

Because when you crush one, your day is infinitely brighter!
