My name is Eryka and I stumbled acro...Hey Heather,<br /><br />My name is Eryka and I stumbled across your site because one of my Crossfit Hilton Head coaches posted a link to here in preparation for our Paleo challenge starting up in May. It's interesting that I would read this literally 45 minutes after yet again attempting my luck at Fran, only to realize that, after finishing in what would have been over 3 minutes faster than 3 months ago, that what I thought was a level III at 45lbs, kipping pull-ups, was 35lbs because....well...apparently, I can't do math! Or I wasn't paying attention?? Who knows! The point is, I'm effin' frustrated. My days in and out of Crossfit vary. Last week I was literally one little elbow lock away from my first muscle up...this week my absolute inability to lift heavy is weighing down my spirits. Ring dips, pull-ups, handstand push-ups, handstand walking, and (almost!) muscle-ups are seemingly effortless at times! Though I may not be able to pound out 100 Kris Clever style, I'm at the very least capable. My problem is this: I'm about 110lb, seemingly unable to gain weight despite my best efforts, and (I think this probably has the most to do with it) am constantly surrounded by beastly (yes, I said it) females push-pressing houses, kettle bell swinging small children, and CRUSHING my "I Can" voice. I know, I know... It's all technique. Train, improve, evolve. Train, improve, evolve. I understand, I understand. But I'm still effing frustrated! Really this is no more than me venting, as I'd hate to complain/make excuses because THERE ARE NO EXCUSES...I know, I know. Seriously, I understand. But I'm entitled to a little self-reflection, right? If anything, it helps identify that I need to work harder. <br /><br />::sigh:: Here's to our continued efforts! See you at the games ;)Eryka Soareshttp://www.facebook.com/eryka.soaresnoreply@blogger.com
