CrossFit pushes your body to its limits. It’s designed to do so for maximum results and falls into the category of high-intensity interval training or HIIT.
While this results in amazing performances, it does put a lot of stress on the body. At Nicali Sports Medicine, we work with CrossFit athletes to ensure they perform at their best while remaining injury-free. Our approach helps you tackle those WODs safely and effectively.
The CrossFit Challenge
CrossFit workouts combine different movements at high intensity. You might go from heavy lifts to gymnastics moves in minutes. This variety is great for fitness but demands a lot from your joints and muscles. When your body isn’t moving right, even simple movements can cause problems.
Common CrossFit Issues
We often see athletes dealing with shoulder pain from overhead movements, back strain from heavy lifts, or knee problems from squats. These issues usually start small but can grow into bigger problems if not addressed early. Most times, these problems come from movement patterns that need fixing.
How We Help
Our focus is keeping your body working right for the demands of CrossFit. We observe how you move and fix problems we find in movement. We adjust and work through the hands to help the body handle intense workouts better. Therefore, you push harder and recover faster.
