#mentalgiant vibes in crossfitgames Masters Semifinals during this heavy bench and row workout
Not checking the leaderboard so I could have taken a last place, who knows. But I have no control over a placement. I am the best rower I’ve ever been and I got better at benching almost bodyweight for 60 reps within 1 week.
This workout broke me when it was first announced. I cried. I lost faith in myself. I lost faith in my training and in my programming. I complained and thought about worst case scenario’s for a solid 2-3 hours.
And then I remembered. I’m Jenn fucking Ryan. And I will show them I belong. I can do hard things.
No matter what happens: I am mentally a different person and I’ll come out better than when I started. I hate when I complain. I like when I work harder. Hopefully the hard work pays off… like they say it does
