A Recent Post
For many OG CrossFitters you will know who Kristine Andali is. She competed in regionals many times, just shy of making it to the CrossFit Games. Kristine has had injuries in the sport, due to the level of which she is competing at. It's how Kristine has handled and come back from those injuries that prompted the this post.This week Kristine posted a video on her instagram with this comment…. Seen below.
I get a lot of messages from people telling me how my journey coming back from injury has given them hope in what their current situation may be. I get asked a lot for advice on coming back from injury or surgery.-The biggest thing I see people doing wrong is rushing. They rush the process, they let their ego take over, they want to be back in the gym or back on the competition floor, they come back too quick and boom they re-injure themselves or they deal with chronic pain. This is one process you cannot rush. No competition and no workout in the gym is worth the pain you’ve been through or are going through and it sure isn’t worth another injury or surgery. Taking a year off competition isn’t going to kill you, taking time off of the gym isn’t going to either, people aren’t going to forget about you, and in the end it will pay off.-Instead of rushing the process, working through pain and potentially re-injuring yourself, listen to your doctors, your physical therapists or talk to @activeliferx. Take the time to rest your body and set out a realistic plan for yourself moving forward, then stick to it. During that process you’re going to deal with struggle and there will be set backs because progress doesn’t happen in a straight line. Anticipate that so you’re ready for them when they do arise.-I haven’t been on a competition floor since 2016 and I don’t plan on being on one until 2019. And by no means is patience an asset of mine so if I can do it... so can you.-Dumbbell snatches @70lbs.

If you do have an injury, or something that is nagging you. Let's also get it looked after. Talk to coaches, seek out a physio, chirco, acupuncturist, massage therapist, etc. We would be happy to help give some direction. Do ignore it and hope it will just go away. It won't. Let's make it better, not worse.
