Injury and Plans
As many of you know I recently got injured and will be out for the next 6-8 weeks. I am extremely disappointed that I will not be able to participate in the 2015 Crossfit Games Open. It's what I've been training for for over the past year. I was hoping to have a shot at regionals this year and to do well overall in the standings. I can promise you that this is adding fuel to the fire and that I am going to come back after this injury more motivated and determined than anybody thinks possible. This next year is going to be a long journey that is going to consist of a lot of hard work, sacrifice, and will power. I'm ready to put it as much work as I need to to get to where I want to be.
As upset as I am that this injury accrued, I also realize that God has perfect timing and a purpose for everything. In Isaiah 55:9 it says, "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than you ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." And even though I may not understand his purpose or reason for this now, I know that he is going to bring a lot of good out of this circumstance.
On a positive note, I can still squat, run, and do core stuff. I am going to continue to work hard with what I can do and hope for a quick and full recovery of my wrist. I will be starting the smolov squat program monday with a goal of squatting 400 lbs by the time my wrist is fully healed.
In the comming months I will be putting forth more of an effort to write some more heartfelt posts with what is going on not only in my training but in my life. As I prepare to go to college next year i am staying very busy and have some big decisions coming my way. Between school, studying, training, working, spending time with my family, maintaining a good relationship with my girlfriend, college stuff, and my involment with church I have very little free time, but I will do my best to keep those posts frequent.
God Bless!
