Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Great stuff as usual, Guys.

Workouts have been curtailed due to strained sciatic nerve (but improving) and right shoulder injury. Just been trying to do what I can to keep some fitness with rowing, goblet squats, lunges, cycling and hiking. As long as I don't "do anything" with my right arm, the shoulder doesn't hurt but that isn't a viable option. I am going in for surgery on Thursday for a biceps tendonesis and to repair the rotator cuff. I am hopeful that will get me back on a good track...
