Rest Day

An active rest day today. With the run this past week I felt that I wasn't so torn up that I couldn't at least do a small workout. I opted for my standard 15-min abdominal workout. I was shocked when I blew right through it with no great effort. I haven't done a strictly ab workout in 5 weeks, so I was surprised how strong my abs had become from doing the CFT WODs.

There are very few isolated abdominal movements in the CrossFit inventory, but I suppose all of those L-shaped pull-ups, kipping pull-ups, back extensions, knees-to-elbows, and other multiple muscle movements have recruited the core muscles as part of the movement. CrossFit continues to both amaze and scare me at the same time.
