Every crossfitter gets injuries from time to time. We can prevent this by stretching, not only after wods, but throughout the day. Warming up properly is also important for injury prevention. If you think you may be injured, your trainer needs to know about it. Getting hurt is not an excuse not to workout. Movements can always be substituted to avoid aggravating an injury. At the same time, it’s important to know when to rest, and to realize when you’re doing more harm than good. Some of you may be having an “affair” with the spin class, pilate, p90x, running 10k every other day, globo gym kind of workouts. Eventually, after enough overuse injuries and boredom, you will come to realize that crossfit is the most efficient, productive, and safest way of training.

Very well said Billy!!! As much fun as this workout looks today… I am taking a rest day!
I love Crossfit because it is “all encompassing!” I don’t have to do anything else with it.

Funny, my coaches at spin class, P90X, palates, and my trainers at LVAC and my 10k running coach all tell me to stop having “affairs” with CrossFit. You know what I think, you’re all just jealous. I spend time with you each week, I call, there’s plenty of me to go around so just have some confidence and back off…
