Looking Back

Setting goals is important.  Goals are all about looking forward, about placing that carrot in front of yourself.  However, you also need to look back.  Looking back allows you to see the progress you've made, or haven't.  

Your workout journals are crucial to this task.  If you didn't write down your scaling for your first Baseline, then you can't evaluate and quantify your progress.  I've never understood how some affiliates don't record workout results!  While I'm not going to do it for you, your recorded data points are important information for both you and your coaches.

Take a look back.  What progress have you made?  Give yourself a pat on the back!


Perfect pushups -  a worthy goal!

  • Hit a PR on today’s Back Squat x 5 (135 lbs); also ran my longest, best run ever last wkend at the Run Around the Gorge, with only 2 days of running + 3 CrossFit workouts per week. Total run = 39.25 miles in 6 hrs 16 mins (4th overall). C.F. rocks!

  • Erik, that’s awesome!!

    I was far from a PR today, but that’s OK.
