Crossfit mamas?

Question

Just signed up, looking for any advice, opinions, anything you think I should know going in. 
I do have a ‘fit’ background (I have a black belt in tae Kwon do) but I’ve been knocked into a sedentary lifestyle by adult onset asthma. Looking to get back in shape.

Answer

It's hard, but give yourself a month or two to adjust to the intensity. Crossfit gave me back my confidence and was honestly the best workout I ever had! I wasnt lifting super heavy, but I would still feel powerful after each workout.
Just because the person next to you is lifting 200 lbs doesn't mean YOU need to.  Like yoga, listen to your body and do what YOUR capable of 😄 Also make sure you have your rest days, you'll be sore a lot!

Answer

It was the ONLY type of workout that kept me motivated to keep going. Been at it for 4 years now and can’t wait to get back into it once baby is out 🤩

Answer

I tried CrossFit a few years back and it was a horrible experience. I didn't get any instruction and just had to watch the people around me. I wound up with hurt knee and pulled back. 
Fast forward a few years to now, I found a place that is very technique heavy. They are making sure you're doing it correct and adjust your workout accordingly. It is like night and day! one day I'll be able to do exactly what's written on the board but for now I want to focus on making sure I'm doing it correct so I don't hurt myself!
Just make sure your place focuses on technique instead of how heavy you can go or how fast you can do it.  
Good luck and have fun!

Answer

I am obsessed with crossfit. Know that fear and anxiety in that environment is NORMAL in the beginning and if you end up feeling intimidated push through that and KEEP GOING. I literally almost cried because I was so scared every time I went. I started in May of 2017 and am still going and plan to continue as much as possible through my pregnancy. Good luck!!!!!!

Answer

It’s hard! But they will scale back any workout to your fitness level. I love CrossFit. You will be super sore the first few weeks but the results are amazing
