There’s a lot of things I can’t do at #crossfit 😅

There’s a lot of things I can’t do at #crossfit 😅

I can’t rope climb.

Not even the zombie scaled version. 😬

I can’t do a proper push up.

Or pull up. (because of my #StupidTendonitisThing) 😣

But I can do lots of other things.

And I scale down what I can’t

And I make sure I don’t hurt myself further.

There is a #GoldilockZone between pushing beyond my comfort zone and going too far, and daily practice allows me to know where that zone is.

So even though I could not do the rope climb today, I was able to do assisted pushups with bands instead – so I call that a win! 🥰

Why do you keep doing this again and again, I hear you ask.

Ok you didn’t but I am going to answer anyway…

Because I love that on the walk home after my workout,

My shoulders are back.

My stride is different.

I feel taller.

Stronger.

And I really love this feeling so much. 💗

So it really doesn’t matter if I can’t do the RX (as stated and not scaled) workout.

I still #ShowUp

And I #DoTheWork. 💪🏻

I know that everything I do today is a vote for the person I want to be in the future.

…And FuturePei does NOT want to be all crumbly and fossilised 😝

I want to be able to heave a grandchild over a wall to escape when we are running away from some shenanigans in the future!

Or help to bury a body if the situation calls for it!

(As you can see, I really do believe that #Crossfit training would prepare me for dragging dead bodies and digging holes eventualities! 🤭)

What are you doing today that FutureYou would totally appreciate??
