So I've been noticing, and maybe even have written that it's been harder and harder to talk myself into going to the box. I'll muster it up and make it a few times and then I find myself trying to talk myself into again... This is a little bizarre because I think I love crossfit. I love the way it makes me feel and the results I've been getting physically and mentally. The box I started with sold out to another affiliate at the end of December and all the coaches I've been used to left to start their own box; which they currently have but it's tiny... Meaning nowhere for the kids to hang out while I lift heavy things and put them down : ) I stayed out of convenience and cheapness and I think ultimately am paying the price for that choice in huge classes and lackluster coaching.
I am coming to realize, as corny as it sounds that not all boxes (or coaches for that matter) are created equally.
Tonight's WOD made me so anxious and frustrated that I literally cried and talked myself out of going. It's not that I am incapable of finishing it... It's just twice as shit as needs to be in a good WOD. (In my humble/newbie option, of course)
It comes down to that. My opinion. And I think my old coaches, in their tiny gym, with their massive knowledge can help me along further in this journey.... And keep me safe and happy while doing so.
So here's to change and knowing yourself and knowing when to hold em and when to fold em... Folding on the current box and holding onto what I hope will reignite my passion for the sport of fitness.
