So, before I left for basic I will admit my mind was going in a million different directions.  From leaving my family for 4 months, leaving my gym, going to the CrossFit games, a new house and a million other things including my diminishing CrossFit abilities.  I ignored my aches and pains for months prior to leaving.  I know, I know I yell at all of you almost on a daily basis about you not ignoring your bodies indicators telling you something is wrong but I was guilty of not following my own advice.  Big mistake!  I got through basic and I pushed myself to keep up with all the young bucks and I was fairly successful but it took a very large toll on my body.  My Achilles were a mess, my shoulders were locked in a constant dysfunctional position and my hip was for as far as I knew shot to the point of no return.  CrossFit was not fun when I got back because I was extremely limited due to my body and it brought me to my mental limits. I decided to do something about it and spent the next month and a half seeing Grant at Howard Chiropractic, getting dry needled by Eric Wallace at Cornerstone Chiropractic and I followed through with mobility on my own.  Once I started to heal there was one last thing missing.  My diet.  I fell off the wagon hard when I returned and I decided when the Packers were done with their season I would commit 100% to my diet.  Sadly for them they lost in the championship game but that loss was the turning point for me.  Since that day I have seen my attitude and abilities rise at a rate I have never experienced before.  A healthy body is an amazing thing and you can do things that you had no idea you were capable of.  This leads me to this great news:
