The time off CrossFit has been good. I really like CrossFit and would spend a lot of after work at the gym. My last CrossFit workout was August 1st. While I was initially disheartened by this forced rest, I've found a new kind of energy. It's that kind of energy when you awaken to a deeper realization of purpose and meaning. With CrossFit temporarily gone, I've been able to focus on my spiritual growth and on honoring  God at work. CrossFit used to consume a big part of my life and would eat into those other areas. As I continue to recover, I look forward to giving God glory in my everything.
"for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come."

"The circuit training programme was designed in 1953 by Professor Emeritus Kirk Wipper (University of Toronto).
