I get asked about my training, diet, and health frequently and I thought the best way to describe or explain this would be via blog. For the next three and a half months leading up to the 2012 CrossFit Games Competition season, I will be documenting my diet, health and training. I am not a professional athlete, nor do I claim to be. This is a blog for all of my lululemon guests and team mates and interested CrossFitters. I hope this provides you with some insight into my journey.

Santa Cruz Strength
Today was super fun! I definitely embraced the lululemon manifesto of doing one thing a day that scares you! My scary thing is the SNATCH! For some reason, throwing that weight over my head is daunting! A couple weeks ago, I decided I should sack up and conquer this "area of opportunity!" For this, I sought out Kyle and Jocelyn at Santa Cruz Strength.
My training partner and I spent some time being coached by Jocelyn today. We worked the snatch and learned some very helpful tips and tricks!
We did 3x3 off the blocks working up in weight and then some singles. Following that we did some work with the halting snatch and then on to snatch singles fromt he floor.
I LOVED the coaching! So often, as a coach, you are so busy coaching others that you rarely get pure coaching yourself. Jocelyn totally helped not only my form, but my confidence in my technique and form. I always thought I was super slow at snatching, but I guess I was wrong! We did some filming and instant slow motion replays and it was super interesting to see every little detail of my lift!
I matched my previous PR, which I was super excited about! It felt much faster and more solid too!
I am totally looking forward to next Monday's coaching!
Later I hit up the farmers market for some of my favorite chicken and veggies and then to the doc for a B12/B Complex injection! Should be feeling good tomorrow!
