No Excuses

Quote of the day: “‎Physicians are lifeguards. Trainers are swim coaches. When you need a lifeguard, you need a lifeguard, not a swim coach. But, if you need a lifeguard, you probably needed a swim coach and didn’t get one.” ~ Coach Greg Glassman, founder of CrossFit

Read the below link on shoulder pain. Then put some attention on your shoulder mobility. Take the self tests. Regardless of whether you pass the tests or not, make it a point to go to Coach Rona’s Mobility, Movement and Flexibility class every Wednesday at 6pm and learn how to both recover from and prep for your workouts more effectively.

We are big on coaching, scaling and technique before load and intensity. Pain free ROM (range of motion) and proper positioning is crucial. We also want you working on improving your flexibility. Don’t fly out of the gym after the WOD every time. Go upstairs and work with a band, LAX ball and roller. Trying to “work around it” and resting it is often what most people think is the solution, but you also need to address any mobility and positioning issues you may have that led to that nagging pain.
