And Andre...your words are encouraging. I finally got over my stubbornness and decided to have my right shoulder looked at. Well, after the MRI, it was discovered that I have a tear on my supraspinatus tendon of the rotator cuff--ouch! It's probably been this way for quite some time now. I go in for surgery at the end of the month. I can't remember taking more than a four or five day break from CrossFit in the three and a half years that I've been doing it. I am NOT looking forward to NOT being able to do everything that I want to do. However, after reading the article and your response, I'm going to do everything I possibly can. And I will carry on your legacy of being the "One-armed CrossFitter" Brian Great article! And Andre…your words are encouraging.

Once they placed the titanium head on my right humerus bone. I modified my WODs and continued to Crossfit as the one armed Crossfitter. My right arm started to heal faster than the doctors and PT's expected. So I continued to train, if it wasn't for Crossfit I think I would of been processed out of the Marine Corps for not being able yo do pull-ups again. Oh and by the way the doctor told me I would never be able to do pull/ups, Kip, press overhead, not to mention ever doing an OHS. Well I guess you can say Crossfit proved them wrong. So training the non injured limb and continue to train with limits is the best thing for you. Even if your on crutches or worse. Do something!
