If you got to experience those beautiful sled pushes yesterday, today is going to be pretty tough on your legs. I highly reccommend getting a rest day in Thursday.  If you are new to CrossFit, try and make it 3 times a week.  Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  Give your body time to recover.  If you have been doing CrossFit for a while now and have bumped up from 3 days to 4 or 5, I encourage you to use the 3 day on 1 day off, 2 day on 1 day off model.  That is 3 workout days in a row followed by 1 rest day.  Then 2 workout days in a row followed by 1 rest day.  Your body needs rest!!  Espceically after yesterday and today!  So get it!  Don’t make me kick you out of here!
