After 7 months, I feel confident in my abilities at Crossfit. I feel like I am getting all the movements down and that I am actually not that bad. I still have so much to work on, but I am not as nervous as I was the first month. lol
But how do you push yourself past a certain point and back into being uncomfortable?
I guess I don't know where to go next and I also get scared. I get scared because I don't want to fail. These weights for heavy. I always want to make sure I am ready. But there comes a point where you have to push yourself in order to find out what you are truly able to do.
We were doing kettle bell swings today. They were suppose to be "heavy" swings and we needed to go up in weight than we normal do. So I did...I went up to 35 pounds. Well one of my friends was watching me through most of the workout. She came over and said, "you can do 44 pounds, you are swinging that around like it's nothing". So I attempted the 44 pounds. She was right. I needed to move up more in weight. But I just double guess my abilities. I have trouble pushing myself into the uncomfortable zone.
I need to "suck is up buttercup" and try to go harder. I won't get better unless I truly learn how to push myself. I need to not be scared of being uncomfortable again.
