CrossFit Expenses 2021

by crossfitmomm, posted in CrossFit

It’s a tradition of mine to post how much I spent on CrossFit for the year:

  • CrossFit gym memberships: $1440
  • CrossFit competitions: approximately $1000
  • Runs: approximately $300
  • New wallballs: approximately $150
  • 25-lb weights: approximately $60
  • Massages: approximately $1000
  • Chiropractor: $1750
  • Orange Theory membership: $695 (I’ve moved to a punch card)
  • CrossFit clothes: approximately $300
  • No Bull Shoes: $120

Total is: $6815. Self-care led the pack this year. When you are a masters CrossFit athlete, self-care is crucial in order to avoid injury and keep moving.

This may seem like a lot (it does so to me), but it’s truly the only thing that keeps me sane. Some people see a psyhologist; I just beat the crap out of my body. Does the same thing probably for about the same cost.

My Mother’s Day Gift to Myself…

by crossfitmomm, posted in Nutrition

Commit.

The word of the year for me.

Commit to ring muscles ups.  Handstand walks.

Commit to eating for life.

No longer a diet.  A nutrition plan.  A fad.Image result for coffee beach

As I’ve told you, my body has been out of whack lately.  And I need to reign it in.

Exercise.  Nutrition.  Self-care.

The piece that’s been lacking consistency is the nutrition.  One day I’m on target.  Next I fall off big time.  The next few days are on and off.  And so on and so forth.

So the self-pity party is ending.  It’s time to commit.  Today.  And why not?  It is Mother’s Day after all.  The perfect gift to myself.  The end of rollercoasters and feeling like a failure.

Happy Mother’s Day to all!
