back and crossfit

[forgotten_aria]

I figured I should document this here.

My back is still giving me trouble, but I've been going back to crossfit. I've been doing lower weight and avoiding a handful of movements a few of which are kind of common.

I've lost a lot of progress. My cardio is non-existent and I can no longer kick up into a handstand. I'm frustrated by my body's ability to lose months of progress in weeks of time.

I have to decided how I want to re-up my crossfit membership. The price differentials are huge! $25 per session for drop in or $17 per session even if I only average twice a week for a year commitment. (I would like to attend more than that, if my body allows.)

I was so enjoying being able to do things I couldn't before, but it's so frustrating to be fighting so many factors. I hate being the slowest, the weakest, the worst. I am also sick of motivational phrases like "you can do anything you put your mind to" and "How they seem to consistently be on track to achieve their goals?
It’s because they WORK at it…. Every. Single. Day." And they have a body that LETS them do that.
