Weight this morning: 244.5 lbs. Super tired from yesterday's WOD. Less sore than just fatigued. I think I need to get up a half hour earlier in the morning and focus on getting a better breakfast.

Soreness

5/14/2009

Still really sore in my shoulders from Monday's workout - thinking I should work back into full Crossfit workouts more slowly - I'm a lot bigger/fatter than I was when I last did these.

248.5lbs this morning. Not sure if I will do tonight's WOD or not, but most likely I will.
