[...] enjoyable fitness irony of the day is the inimitable Dutch Lowy posting a picture of his torn apart collarbone a day after his guide to shoulder [...]
Dutch Lowy
Where life is measured in kilos.
Is that of you? What did you do?
Nice collarbone.
I tried to tackle the mountain….
yes it’s me.
luckily no surgery and should be a short heeling time.
Man, I am sorry to hear that. Praying for a quick recovery no doubt!
dang dutch I thought you said to be careful when beginners start snatching…
Ooh, gnarley dude. Good luck with your recovery.
Dutch,
Sorry to see that. Ive been there myself…twice. Strait forward recovery from it though.
Sometimes you bomb the steeps, and sometimes the steeps bomb you!
Damn Dutch! Hopefully you left your mark on the mountain….
c’mon Dutch, we need the whole story! here’s to a quick recovery.
Oh gees… at least it wasn’t your neck. praying for a speedy recovery.
Hey Dutch,
Sorry to see you’re injured dude! Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.
I haven’t commented before, but just wanted to say that I’ve been reading your blog for a while now (all the way from Melbourne, Australia) and I’ve found it to be a terrific resource.
In addition, I really think you’re hitting the nail on the head with the last few posts on injuries/rehab…CrossFit HQ doesn’t talk about that enough. This shit is potent and will wreck your body if you don’t take care of yourself.
Anyway man, thanks again – keep up the good work.
All the best.
Mike,
Thank you very much. It is nice to be appreciated.
Ouch! Hope you get better fast!
Dutch, sorry to hear about your collerbone. I will tell you from experience (Biceps Tendonesis surgery Friday, January 22nd) that while I couldn’t be more frustrated by being injured, it does allow you to focus on other things that you have probably neglected for too long. Try and take the time to work on things you haven’t been able to because of your O-Lifting training, it will pay off in the end and you will be stronger and better off for it.
Keep Grinding.
P.S. Everything happens for a reason, had you not been injured you’d be asking Sam back for the singlet you let him borrow and I don’t think enough time has passed for it to be sterile.
