“PR”- Personal Record- 5:1
When & Where: Since I've joined my cross-fit (an exercise program that combines
various forms of fitness) gym back in May, I have been exposed to so many words
that are completely foreign to me!
Level of Familiarity: The acronym “PR” I first saw on the daily
whiteboard next to people’s names. The first time I saw it, I just ignored it
because I was so overwhelmed with doing the work-out correctly. But then
overtime, I began to hear people say when they were lifting “I PR’d.” After a
few exposures to the acronym, I realized people were referring to beating their
previous weight for lifting and setting a new personal record!
Defintion: The definition really speaks
for itself. When a person sets a “PR” that means that they have exceeded their
previous weight with a lift and he/she set a personal record.
Reflective Commentary: Now that I am familair with the acronym "PR," I have already used it appropriately this week. I achieved my first "PR's" with schoulder press and a clean lift (types of weight lifts regularly appearing in cross-fit workouts).
