Hey guys. Here's where we're at right now: Matt finished his radiation treatments last week. Did they help? I don't know. He's sleeping a lot more. Having trouble chewing and swallowing. Not eating much. Not talking much, at least not in full sentences. It's just been a slow, steady decline for the last few months. I think it was really too late for radiation....But who knows, maybe it is delaying things. We went in last Tuesday for his infusion and talked with his neuro-oncologist about everything that we've been seeing with Matt, and he decided that we're at the point now where we should discontinue treatments...I feel like it's the right decision, even though it breaks my heart knowing that there is nothing else we can do. But I feel like we've done everything. All the supplements, the diet, the chemo, the radiation... Matt has fought hard. He never gave up hope. He kept the faith. He never complained through any of this. Not once did I hea...
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.
