My path forward

I began with rowing during college and after college decided that I wanted to be like my childhood hero Arnold's. After many mistakes, and injuries, I found that in order to get bigger I needed to get stronger which led me to strength training and Starting Strength. I then came across Stronglifts and blew all my old lifting PRs away. I eventually worked my way to 222lbs about 6months ago and decided it would be a good idea to go for a run. I struggled so bad. It was terrible. I decided that I would rather be more overall fit than really strong. And so I researched and found crossfit.
I have now been "doing crossfit" for 4 months, the most recent 2 months seriously.You probably won't see me be as crazy about the crossfit way of life as everyone else. Just like any program you decide to invest in it has its strengths and weaknesses. It may not work for you depending on your goals...let me rephrase that: There may be better, more efficient ways to reach your particular goals than doing crossfit. From my 2 months doing the crossfit main page (MP) workouts I have found that I have definitely become more of a well rounded athlete. It has already begun to shape my body to the type that I want it to be.
The goal of this blog is to track my workouts by holding me accountable to the anonymous internet masses, and some close friends that I discuss training stuff with. I have been really bad at documenting my progress regardless of the program I have been trying and so I thought this would provide some incentive to keep track of things. Another goal is to become a more proficient and effective communicator. Writing things down will force me to think about what I am going to say and then working to communicate that through the blog with as little confusion as possible. I know the internet loves correcting grammar and that is not one of my strong suites.
