Turn It Up Tuesday

Hello Loves! Hope ya'll are rocking today!! Yesterday was a MIX of feelings day.  School was fabulous! I really am so blessed to love my job and my kiddos! Also, DA and I talked/texted during the day -- we decided we needed to walk away and that right now we weren't ready to find our next step.  Crushed would probably sum it up. I cried...a lot.  I know a lot of people are not on team DA+me and are ok with this decision. I also know I deserve more then what he is giving/can give me. 'm not silly -- I get it.  Everyone wants the best for me...I get it.  I want what I deserve too. SO what did I go do to get my mind off it? I went and WOD'ed with the best box!! I got my first pistol - only on my right leg, but still I GOT A PISTOL haha! I think my left leg is going to take a lot of work to get one since that's the torn achilles side and that's a lot of flex and strength in one movement! For strength we did back squat -- 3x6 -- you shoot for the 6 if you get it, the next week you try and go up 5lbs.  Last week I got 145# so I wanted 150 -- BAD.  150 is right were I was before the marathon for my 1RM squat -


 
GOT IT!!! Super happy -- needed that. My achilles was killing me yesterday so it was HARD, but I am still happy. The metcon was 20, 15, 10, 5 -- Front Squats at 65# + Pull ups (Grey & red band).  I really need to work on my pull ups.  I haven't been doing it a lot lately, I've been slacking on skill work in general.  I need to make a schedule for all the extra work I want/need to do. I also stayed for gymnastics - headstand work, hollow rock holds, grip work and a obstacle course.  Had to be careful on the obstacle course because of my achillies.  Iced and some work when I got home.  Need to roll my legs and some achilles work this afternoon. This morning, my body HURTS haha.  

Erik (in the pic) is my favorite guy WOD buddy.  He's fabulous.  That pic is from Saturday night.  Love it! He missed out on yesterday -- he's been having some shoulder issues -- boo! 
Scarlet starts classes tonight -- I call it asshole school. haha sorry for the language.  I'm hoping to get her to walk on a leash right, and quit jumping and being crazy.  T and her dog Remi are coming with us.  It should be good! Remi & Scarlet need some social work -- Scarlet LOVES other dogs, but Remi not so much.  She use to love Scarlet and LD but lately she doesn't.

How was your Monday? Good start to your week? How'd you #SweatPink and get active? I missed my push ups for #NoGirlyPushUps -- have to get them in today! Here's my current obsession to end your read :)
