Bringing Our CrossFit Community Together

So this is going to be a regular thing on here. One so everyone can see what other things are going on at the Pound and so Troy can see that I do my homework and I'm not just faking the funk with him.

People who don't know me or my past and the problems I have brought Troy, here is a little back ground on myself. I have been in the Army for 6 years and have let the Army abuse and beat my body and I seemed to excel at taking this better than most. During the past 6 years I have gone through Infantry School, Airborne School, Cold Weather Survival school, 3 different sniper schools, SFAS. I was deployed to Iraq from June 2005- July 2008. Health was never a priority just training and better performance. Well things finally added up after the last deployment. I had some issues building up, plus add in a bad jump and I had created a mess out of my body. I pulled, tore the muscle out of my right hip and made everything in my body compensate for this instead. Well, instead of taking some time off to recover I did what I was trained to do. I sucked it up and drove on and yes I drank a little water. The next three months I finished off my body and my nervous system by training at a very high intensity for 5+ hours a day. Well I finally gave up that harder is better. A couple of months later is when the journey at the pound begins. After the first month I was feeling back to a more normal states of being and was wanting to get seriously moving again. Trying to push the limits again things where not the same. Troy began to take notice in my frustration and started to ask questions. Most of my answers being something like, "it feels like something is holding me back" or , "its like my brakes are on and I cant get them to let go". Troy seemed to like this and laugh at most of my comments. This began the Z-health training. I have been doing Z now for two months but have been doing it as a primary training for about 1 month now. There have been drastic changes in posture (gaining a inch in height), balance, eye sight, and movement through my exercises. The movement of my injured hip is getting better but the chunking of all the bad movement has begun to re-write and has brought up the emotional stress and hunger of the time period of when i was Injured. One of the great mysteries of Z-health and its showings of progress. I hope this gives you enough of a over view of what is going on. I will be posting my workouts and new issues that arrive as I get put back together and get ready to go back and get in the fight.

Ken - didn't know all of this about you. It's awesome to see that Z-health is helping you. Even though I obviously don't have the same issues as you, I can definitely relate in how Z-health has enriched my movement and has taken me to another level in understanding how our bodies are supposed to move and respond to things. Looking forward to seeing how things progress! Thanks for sharing.
