My Favorite thing about Crossfit is not being able to breathe through the workouts!! How about you?

There is much discussion about the role our minds play in driving our performance. Maybe you’ve heard the advice, “Go to your happy place,” but we all know there are rarely “happy” thoughts in the middle of a WOD. Our minds can help us cope with the stress and pain that our bodies are going through. Some of us like to focus on the pain. Most try to to avoid recognizing the pain by “going to a happy place,” or “zoning out.” These are the times when it is difficult to focus on the task at hand and we can lose track of our reps or rounds, especially in a workout like ‘Cindy,’ ‘Murph’ or ‘Angie.’ Does this ever happen to you?

What do you do to help yourself keep track of reps? What happens to you in the middle of Fran when you can’t quite feel your arms anymore? How about when you lose your count in the middle of Cindy?
