CrossFit training plan begins

So I, Haley, will be starting my 'training' today with my CrossFit plan. I'll be joining a new CrossFit gym about a mile from my house (hopefully one day I can ride my bike or *gasp* run there) today. I'm going in for my assessment to see what I am able to do. The coach is one that I worked with before at my old gym, who started her own gym while I was in Iraq. Thankfully, she has military experiencee and is excited to help me in any way she can. So, she will design some workouts that I can do with my gimp leg. I'll be doing modified workouts and mostly upper body exercises until I'm cleared for full workouts.

Also this week I will be starting physical therapy. It'll be an aggressive regimen of 2-3 times a week for about a month, then tapering off as I show strength gains. Right now the concern is muscle imbalance due to 3 months of being on crutches. I also have some painful spasms in my groin from the muscles being "upset" with the femur break (per the Dr.).

I've been swimming still; not as much as I like as I was busy and sick for part of the weekend. I also am finding joy in harassing Marcy to get to the pool or ride her bike. I don't know why she's putting this off. My teammates need to get to that starting line, we're in this together!

I am excited to get back to it!
