To our very valued members ❤️
As CFCV it’s important to understand how this temporary shift in training (or lack of) that many of us experienced, can expose us to increased injury risk as we make our return to normally scheduled CrossFit programming. Reintroducing load, volume, and intensity in a progressive, controlled manner is going to be paramount for the safety and health of all of you!
While many of us have missed the high-intensity style workouts that we have become accustomed to, establishing a protective workload, especially in our barbell and gymnastics based movements, is going to be our # 1 priority during the first 5-7 weeks of training!
We often run into movement-based injuries when we do “too much too soon, after too little for too long.” Essentially, when we perform an activity that exceeds our tissue’s capacity, it’s not uncommon to have a resultant increase in sensitivity or injury. In any return to sport protocol, the ultimate goal is to prepare the body and certain tissues for the stress that will be placed on them. For example, for a pitcher who has undergone a UCL repair (AKA “Tommy John” Surgery), we understand the amount of stress that the tendons, muscles, and ligaments of the elbow need to tolerate to prevent re-injury when throwing a baseball 90+ mph. This stress is very well documented, and as such, protocols are developed by reverse engineering from the terminal goal and understanding expected tissue healing times. As we draw a comparison to what we are seeing in the CrossFit space, we will find that many of us have not spent time hanging from a pull-up bar or performing any sort of barbell movement over the past 6-8 weeks. In those 6-8 weeks, you have not lost the “skill” of butterfly pull-ups. You have not lost the “skill” of performing hang power cleans. Rather, what you have lost the capacity, strength, and endurance of those tissues that are stressed most when performing these movements. Placing the same amount of stress on those tissues 8 weeks ago will have drastically different effects on your body than it will now due to the lack of stress and resultant positive adaptations of those structures. We will get it back!
