March 1, 201214 yr Well. It has finally happened. I have attained my overall weight loss goal. I have lost 40 lbs. In a little less than a year. 199 baby! Congratulations
March 12, 201214 yr Author Bummed. Just found out my gym is closing.That sucks. What reason are they closing?
March 12, 201214 yr Ran 17 this past Saturday for no particular reason. My buddy is training for a marathon and it was a nice day so I tagged along. Got my sprint tri coming up in two months now, probably need a half IM for the fall.
March 12, 201214 yr Author Started going to a Crossfit gym a couple of weeks ago. I started back to lifting this morning. I will continue doing crossfit in the afternoon and strength training in the morning. My goal is to start outfitting a home gym with bumper plates, squat rack and some other equipment for strength training. I can then do that part at home and do my conditioning at the crossfit gym.
March 12, 201214 yr That sucks. What reason are they closing? I'm hearing there is an issue with the lease and the building.

Plus, the free weights are seemingly always open. I really like it. If it is just for you Urban is really nice, but can get really crowded.
March 19, 201214 yr No young kids. Just me and Mrs. Crunch. She's more into classes. Zumba, pilates, circuit training etc. Checked out Urban and Planet Fitness Saturday. We went up to the PF in Eastgate to actually see one that's open. It's better than I thought it would be, and much cheaper. But I'm thinking UA fits our needs a little better.
March 21, 201214 yr Author Well, I'm 4 weeks in doing Crossfit. The only lift I have seen a huge decline on is my bench. I went from 3x5 at 225 to 3x5 at 185. I also went from training bench twice per week to once a week and I went my first 2 weeks of doing crossfit without any additional strength training. Still trying to dial in my diet so once that gets fixed it should help as well.
March 22, 201214 yr Next week is the Cooper River Bridge Run in Charleston, SC. It will be my first 10k. I'm pretty excited.

April 13, 201214 yr I got this going on today. Doesn't look all that bad, but it is trust me. Skip to the 5:42 mark. That is where the workout starts.
