One year ago today... the day it all changed. It was a Tuesday. I got the call from Matt around 3:00. I remember I was sitting at the computer at home. Matt told me that he was at the hospital, and that Bob Scott, his boss, had driven him there. Then he said those 4 words I never expected to hear: “The tumor came back.” My heart stopped. Matt had gone in that morning for an MRI, as he has done numerous times in the past 10 years. He was now at the point where he had an MRI just yearly now, and that one was done in February, which showed that everything was fine. There was no sign of tumor growth, which had been the case for the last 10 years, praise God. But because Matt had been having some seizure activity for the last few months, they suggested he go in for another MRI in July. We then decided we should move up the appointment, because he had been having a headache every day for the past week. Good thing we did.... After I hung up with Matt, I immediately brok...
Hey! I was wondering how you worked in your CF workouts with your lift days? Right now I lift legs on Mon. and Thurs., upper body on Tues. and Fri. and Weds, I do HIIT sprints. I did CF for a year and loved it, but eventually I needed to do something different. So now I have been doing the schedule I mentioned, but I miss CF!! So, how did you decide which day was good for working it in? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteIt took a while for me to be able to figure out how to work it in with my lifting. I was almost always too sore to do anything the next day after CrossFit...but didn't want to do any heavy lifting the day before either. So basically I worked it out so that I do weights Sunday, Monday, Wednesday(upper-lower-upper split), then CrossFit Friday, which usually has a strength portion before the WOD also, so I count that as one of my lifting workouts. If I'm not too beat up on Saturday I might go in and do some strongman training stuff, like farmer's walks, battle ropes, etc.
