I don’t normally post videos here but I love this song and after seeing this amazingly colourful video I just love it even more. I had no idea Beyoncé sang in this song until I saw her in the music video. Enjoy!
Hi name is Maddie and I’m always hungry. If I’m not eating I just pretend I’m eating. Like here you might not see it but I’m actually holding a pretty good smoothie right there...

PS I miss summer and beach life already and it’s been two days since we had 30 degrees. Now it’s like 17. This is messed up😅😂
The open this year finished in blood, sweat and tears in my hands😂 As soon as I saw 19.5 I knew my hands were screwed. Chest to bars and thrusters, I wasn’t too excited but knew it was just something that had to be done. I was looking forward to see how my chest to bars had improved since last year. I’ve posted two videos at the end of me struggling to get any last year! I did a redo and ended getting a few but with a lot of rest in between each rep.
.
Halfway through 19.5 I could feel how both hands ripped and after that it was a mental struggle to keep going with my bloody hands😅 Despite that I got 144 reps in the 20 min time cap! I was so happy. You always wish you do better and I wish my hands would have been in a better state but you can only do your best with what you have in the moment.

The open is such a good way to measure how you have improved in the past year. It’s definitely been eye opening for me! Lots of things I have become stronger at and lots of things I want to work on for next year. It’s easy to get carried away and compare yourself to others but at the end of the day we’re all on different journeys and the only one you can really compare yourself to is yourself. Thanks open for everything, no redo for me. One and done this time around but I will try this workout out again one day and hopefully finish it💪
Beach days are the best kind of days 💙 Another pic from beautiful Lennox Head. Yup I still have bank full of them from the holiday😅
May introduce you to the @crossfitbyronbay cleaning crew. Absolute pleasure meeting @ohmmumma, @its_eezy_ and their beautiful kids when we were up in Byron🙌 Miss these little kiddos💕

I did my redo this morning of 19.4. I was determined and convinced I could do better. Stubborn Maddie slowly getting back on track😝 I managed to improve my tiebreaker time by 41 seconds! I was so happy with that improvement. Less faffing about and more unbroken snatches and faster on the burpees. Still no muscle ups in sight but I’ve made up my mind, I’m getting one soon.
