That is me. That tire was REALLY heavy. I've been flipping car tires- this is lots harder.

Isn't this a cool Cross fit place! Ramona, CA. Just outside San Diego.

Heres my kids practicing 25 meter plank walk. Elsie wasn't really getting it- cute though.

Brynly helping Elsie with box jumps. Everyday she asks to put on her "exercise clothes & shoes" so she can go to the gym.

I FINALLY got some gymnastics rings! This is a neighbor kid attempting muscle ups.

Kids are so good at this stuff.

i could not pull myself up.

practice, practice i'll get there.

I learned a TON at my Cross fit kids certification! Heres a short video, I tried out a workout on some kids. MAN- it is not your average PE class. They were tired and sweaty when they finished.

-We start with gymnastics and teaching a Olympic weightliftig move (this is much more difficult than it sounds, I spend hours on youtube trying to learn these!)

-WOD (workout of the day) 3 plyometric box jumps, 6 clean and jerk, 9 wall ball (w/ medicine ball). As many rounds as possible in 10 min.

-yoga stretches and nutrition talk.

- DODGEBALL!! (if they get hit they have 5 squats or pushups depending on the color of the ball) if they catch it- the other person has 10!

Heres where I'll be teaching this fall....
