So last Thursday I joined the Tribe, and I couldn't be any happier. I friggin' love that place. No more being a pussy. I'm on my way.
So far I've done Jackie, Cindy, learned how to snatch, done a PR deadlift (x2), set an awesome time on the 25's, and have some legit competition to make me better.
I've always wanted to become a crossfit trainer, and I think this is making me more passionate. Although, I might want to do crossfit kids. It might be the wife being pregnant that is making me lean that way. Yep, she's pregnant (5 weeks away from telling the world, or did I just do that?).
I couldn't ask for better role models and trainers in Steve and Erin. They set a great example and can't wait to continue learning.
My diet is getting there!

crossfit warmup x 3
30 sec samson stretch
12 squats
12 situps

Deadlift 3x3x3x3x3
Warmup:

3x205
3x205
3x225
Before crossfit, I never used to deadlift. That's because I had no idea what I was doing in the gym. I was ignorant to the art of "fitness" and it showed. I look around the gym and I see people just like how I was. I see the same guys just doing chest/tri's, back/bi's, and shoulders/legs on their set schedules making little to no progress.
My new motto is, it's all about the core.
Crossfit is gaining steam though. I have several people a week come up to me and either say, "you work hard as shit", or "are you doing that crossfit stuff"?
I recently started mixing in some regular bodybuilding with my crossfit exercises. I'll do the WOD as posted on www.crossfit.com (a couple days later) and then I'll throw in a few exercises to make sure I'm not neglecting the "sexy" muscles.
All in all, I'm happy with my progress but I can work so much harder it's not even funny. I need a partner or a crossfit gym.
Closest LOCATION is crossfit philly. I'm waiting on Evofit South Jersey to get a facility. I'm pretty sure I can't hold a candle to those guys.
