3 Week Follow-up and Another Mod Wod
Yesterday was my 3 week post op follow up.
Everything looked great. There was a bit of a smell coming from under the steri strips which had concerned me for a couple of days, but the doctor ripped the rest of the strips off and thought it was more likely just from the shower. He cleaned it up with peroxide and told me to keep it dry for a couple of days and then return to showering.
I am at neutral now and just have 2 more lifts left to remove in my boot, which he said I could speed up and remove them both in the next week. Everything feels great, although my plantar flexion is pretty weak, which is to be expected. Another appointment in 2 weeks when we are likely looking at two shoes!
This is what the wound looks like now.
Went to the box again and only had to modify 1 movement for the WOD.
WOD- Alyssa’s Special
15 minute AMRAP
20 Pull Ups- Be sure to pay attention when coming down from the bar.
30 Air Squats - I was able to do these without pain or problem, but they may not be for everyone. Listen to your body.
30 Supermans ( this was in place of 20 Deadlifts (225/165)
30 Push Ups
20 Sit Ups
Result 2 Rounds +46 reps
My coach told me I look sad when I come in there, and he knows I want to do the lifting. He’s right, but it does feel great just to be in that atmosphere. I know I’ve said that a million times already!
