Any CrossFit peeps?

Thanks for the info and advice. I think I'm going to continue my daily walking till my 3-month post-op appointment with my doctor in July. For now, I really enjoy walking around the lake with my dog. Pretty soon it will be too hot unless I go early morning or late evening.

At that point I will have a better idea of what exactly I'm going to do moving forward. 🏋️‍♀️

3mo post op update. Getting back into Crossfit after 28 days of vacation in a 6 week span. Energy levels have gotten a little better (adding in more carbs before workout) but is still noticeable. I have dropped about 40-50% of all of my strength moves. And today was the first day that I thought "Hey, that movement was easier than before" and it was on burpees over the bar. 3 sets of 10 that I wouldn't have been able to do before where now just another part of the workout.

Nice! Burpees over the bar are... intimidating.

I got my first box jump since my last update (to a 10 inch box but there's still skin on my shins so I'm calling it a win), and my first single unders.

I also ran during a WOD for the first time yesterday. It sounded like my loose skin was giving me a round of applause.
