Hi everyone.

I'm new and found SimpleFit through a link on a another forum I visit. I had seen CrossFit before and liked the concept but thought it was a little confusing. SimpleFit, like Goldilocks said, is just right. :D

I am active and am a Les Mills instructor. Over the last year my motivation has really waned and I haven't been able to find anything that really got me excited. SimpleFit has piqued my interest, so I'm excited to see where I'll be in 3 months.

Started today with L3D1. Rounds completed: 24

I substituted towel rows for pull ups and had to drop to knee push up on round 19. Standard push ups were not as deep as they should be, but I really try to focus on keeping my spine in line and dropping my butt. My thoughts afterward were that it really wasn't as hard as I thought I could do. I'll complete this level this week and re-evaluate if I should move up or stay.

I'm planning on having hubby create a pull up contraption in the gym. He mentioned something about when he was a kid they had a set up in the basement that had holes of varying heights in it. You slid the bar into whichever one you needed. That could be cool.

Welcome, and I'm glad you have the opportunity for a pull-up workstation!

Thanks Andy! I'm looking forward to D2 this afternoon!
