clinzy Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I have been doing martial arts for about 7 years now, and I started doing CrossFit about 18 months ago to try and avoid knee surgery (it didn't work). I was surprised to find that I loved lifting weights in the CF classes, though, and when my coach started offering a barbell strength & conditioning class three times a week, I signed right up. Fast forward 1 year - my knee is fixed, I've left the CF gym for a strict lifting gym (in the last few weeks), and I'm back to grappling (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu) on a fairly regular schedule again. I'm getting back toward my old max lifts, and back onto a regular lifting schedule.The only issue that remains - am I a Warrior or a Monk? Link to comment

Welcome to the forums! I am sure you'll find plenty of amazing people to converse with round these parts.

I didn't see anything related to martial arts in there...
